               YOUR ATTENTION TO THE 2009 CONVENTION
                                by Jim Rubin
There's a strong, burning desire in this old heart of mine.
to attend the ALP Convention in two thousand and nine.
And be a part of the 200th Birthday Celebration
to be held in the Capitol of this great nation.

I believe that it is fitting and proper that I should do this.
Because, in a larger sense, the experience will be bliss.
And, the mission is clear as what it is that I should do.
That is to enhance our motto "That I Might Rouse the Lincoln in You".

But they tell me that things are pretty expensive there.
So, I must start saving some money in order to pay my fare.
For I know it will be worth it, in the long run.
Because, with all the other Lincolns, it will be fun.

So, if you are not yet making your plans to go
I hope, with increased devotion, you will do so.
Then, you will hear other members shout with glee,
When they see your "Homely" countenance in D.C.
