Odds bodkins!
Or (an it be worse) Odds bokeh!
There was a time I wrote a piece for Shutterbug, and, sad to say, they saw not that I wrote in measured form (though I did tell them); and so the s*dding editor did change it, thus by her meddling to destroy what scansion I had wrought therein.
(Read it out loud and it's not bad for a reply written in 5 minutes. The main change in scansion between the 16th century and now that is required in the above is to stress 'I' and not 'did' in 'I did tell them').

Some related sad news just relayed by a co-worker.
It seems like "Snot" of "Puke And Snot" (Elizabethan stand-up comedy team, not bodily fluids) has passed away.
If you have never heard of or seen these guys, they are (were) incredibly funny!
