In the good old days, years came in strudy Scottish families
The McMilvies and their strudy cousins the McSilvies.
MCMLVIII
MCMXLVIII

Back then we never thought we'd get to the hummable year "MM"
Still less the egotistical years "MMi! MMii! MMiii!"

Now we're in the nostalgic Tom Mix years
Longing for the strong silent figure whose vacant equestrian statue
graces the lonely Pinal Pioneer Parkway. "MMIX, MMX, oh MMXI MMXII!!"



In the 19th century we had a lot of donkey years like mud-kick-kick-kickssss (MDCCCXXX)

tom mix, roman numerals, time
