They know what they're doin', out in Methuen

Ex-Ideas columnist James Parker has been writing a topical poem every week, for the Boston Phoenix. And the Phoenix has been filming them. Very entertaining, indeed. Check it out:

* Flushed Away -- toilet parts theft in Methuen

* Cork it, Corgan -- new Smashing Pumpkins

* Waxin' Anglo-Saxon -- FCC ruling about profanity

* One Bird's Opinion -- a bird pooped on Bush

* He Thought Tinky Winky Was Gay -- Jerry Falwell, RIP

* Words Made Flesh -- nudists seek youth
