The Gift Outright
The land was ours before we were the land’s.
She was our land more than a hundred years
Before we were her people. She was ours
In Massachusetts, in Virginia,
But we were England’s, still colonials,
Possessing what we still were unpossessed by,
Possessed by what we now no more possessed.
Something we were withholding made us weak
Until we found out that it was ourselves
We were withholding from our land of living,
And forthwith found salvation in surrender.
Such as we were we gave ourselves outright
(The deed of gift was many deeds of war)
To the land vaguely realizing westward,
But still unstoried, artless, unenhanced,
Such as she was, such as she would become.
— Robert Frost

Now that right there is funny! I don’t care who you are.
Bwahahahaaaaa!!! DAMM FUNNY!!!
News. Sheeeeeeit.
IIRC, Dan Rather got his big break covering a hurricane for a CBS affiliate in the 1960s. So Danny Boy II here is part of a great fake news tradition.
This, is CNN.
The office chair is a good one.
Dan actually covered Camille, in Texas as a local reporter, and didn’t fake that.
It was only later on he started his fabulism.
