Isn’t it amazing how similar the silly little joys of childhood are, across such a wide range of upbringings?

Them’s limericks, **Annie** , not haiku, but yes indeed some of them sure are funny. My fave:

> [@](#):

> But the other guy squealed  
> And his secret revealed,  
> So now he’s a born-again virgin.

Reminds me of a John Valbee (sp?) song:

“Leprosy  
All my skin is falling off of me  
I’m not half the man I used to be  
Oh how did I get leprosy?”  
[/QUOTE]

Nah, that’s the Beatles’ “Yesterday”.

Still pretty funny, though.

Looking over that page, we need (in addition to Pukey) a “Not Worthy” smiley.

Whoa, now! If we can’t get consensus on Pukey, how do you think people will react to animated smilies?? 😃

(For the record, I’m OK with either. Just not animated Pukey…)
