Preamble: The delightfully savage and clever took it upon herself to enter my challenge, and took some little shots at me in the process. So here is my full rebuttal. short and not so sweet?

*

Ol' Cathy, our Canadian buddy, a national legend

Trudeux's lover under his command?

*

With glaring eyes, we see thee rise

Top Story again, sublime and fiercely funny

*

From Boundary Peak 187 to Cape Spear

Ol' Cathy, they speak of your majesty

*

Keep Princess Abigail well-fed and content

Ol' Cathy, for we know you owe it to her

*

Ol' Cathy, for we know you owe it to her

*

Thanks for reading!

Author's Notes: I'm sure we can all agree, Cathy is a necessary part of the Vocal community, but I felt I had to snipe back a little and using the national anthem and Princess Abigail felt like a great way to do it.
