These women, bound by simple, common traits;
to laugh with giz, to be good friends, have fun,
together in the world of cyberspace,
united in the COG and made as one.
Yet when you enter here tread carefully--
our wit is sharp, we hold our credo dear,
(unless, of course, you're David Duchovny--
then please come in, we'd love to have you here!)
We share a love of X-Files, beer, and giz,
magic numbers, librarians, and cats.
(And only we know where the real truth is--
but Mulder makes us keep it under wraps.)
So come on in, ye members old and new,
'cause hey, we really know stuff, we just do...
--JZ, 7/96
Home, home on the page! Where the 'net and the Java script play!
Where seldom is heard ... an unhighlighted word ...
And the stealth geeks go surfin' all day!
(Copyright 1996, Ms. Thing. Who is homepageless and refuses to hang her head in shame. So there!)
Based on the Memorare by St. Bernard (not the dog) - if my mom ever knew, she would recite 10 rosaries tonight for my soul ;)
Remember, Oh most gracious Goddess Bex,
that never was it known,
That anyone who fled to your protection,
implored your help,
or sought your intercession
was ever left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto you,
O Goddess of Goddesses of Pine.
To you I come, before you I stand,
ignorant and sorrowful.
O mother of the Word electronic,
despise not my petition,
but in your mercy hear and answer me.

Our dear Bones, aka Karen, has contribute a tribute to the COG sisters (well, a tribute after a fashion :)
=-=-
Ahemhemhemhem...A Poem. By Bones.
There was a young COGgie named Bones
Whose heart was Fox Mulder's alone.
She told her COG sisters
He couldn't resist her
They told her they thought she was stoned.
:)
=-=
Ahemhemhemhem...A-nother Poem. By Bones (Queen of the Limerick, Goddess
of the Underworld).
When Jen said "My God, Mulder's hot!"
One goddess replied "Well, that's rot!"
Ms. T. said "It's Skinner
I think is the winner.
He'd keep that red speedo more taut."
=-=-
Yet another offering from the Queen of the Limerick, Goddess of the
Underworld - Bones
When Jax wanted cowboys to date
She said "Oklahoma's just great!"
So it's Boston's loss
'Cuz she got very cross
And found some new docs to berate.
=-=-
I'm on a roll, ladies...
The Goddess of Pine was named Bx.
She sent Bill the Gates a big hex.
"You don't use a Mac?
You're an idiot, jack.
Convert, IBM, or you're next!"
=-=-
More droppings from my lips...Bones
barbg is a tough one to pin down.
She's owned more homes than the Brit crown.
"If we move once more
I'll walk out that door
and work as a travelling circus clown."
=-=-
Mim is a small-creature-lover
And over her bunnies she'd hover.
They watched the X-Files
and made little piles
of something that ought to be covered.
=-=-
Stacy's our goddess of web-stuff.
She can find things that others find too tough.
When it comes to the Files
DD makes her smile
and send us .jpegs of him in the buff.
=-=-
Ruth's our Sagacious Old Hag.
She's got coolness and hip in the bag.
She can't type worth sh*t
but it's really her wit
that we see anyway - she's a wag!
=-=-
X-tal's name says she's a fan
Of the 1013 Vancouver clan.
She's the goddess, you know
who lives closest the show
So she'd reach the set first if we ran.
=-=-
Peg is our resident joker.
Who keeps us all straight as a poker.
You can't get away
with the stuff that you say
'cuz we goddesses all will invoke her.

The Divine Gizzie wafted into my immediate vicinity on a cloud of glory.
