Simular topic as we did for Spirit's Milli-sol

Curious to see where MER-B will be at the 1000th Martian day milestone

[climber]

1000th sols is coming fast and, as for Spirit, poems will be written soon.
The recent entries in this forum are very serious-romantic writting with very smooth music and I LOVE what you've done, Ustrax (Pilgrins), Stu (poems) and Lyford (music).
As 1000th Oppy's sol come I'm in a VERY good mood and I thought I could write a light hearted song.
So, I've done these lyrics hoping somebody (Lyford?) could create music to go with.
This song is the kind of song you can sing in a group (like in 2007's UMSF meeting ) probably after having drunk some beers and been in good mood. By the way, if you like it, you can continue the lyrics...

I think you need to bring along a banjo player for that one Climber.
