TECHNICAL TIM

They call me Technical Tim.
But I'd rather they'd call me

When in school there was

That my pTying eyes would
not have caught.
From the unlaoed shoe on my
teachers foot.
To the unkempt furnace fun
Of SCOT
Now I can cali each and every

By its meteorological term.
And all the atoms in recognition,
I've divided By long and

Here's how I went through col
