Limericks, cont'd

There was a new poster named vix
who was scared to death of all the cliques
so she posted, in dread
to the limerick thread
where some friendly folk hang out for kicks

I used to hope Bledsoe would win
but now I’ve moved to Brooklyn
though the Tuna is gone
the fight lingers on
to route for the Jets in a sin

Oh thank you for joining us here!
We’re glad you could add to the cheer.
To this thread we resolve
not to let it dissovle
and we hope that you too will adhere.

Soon the outside will be freezin’.
The change to fall weather’s the reason.
Leaves red yellow and gold,
Windy air crisp and cold,
Proclaim to us all “Football season!”

I’m so glad tht vix is including,
Her rhymes, and is no longer brooding,
Over whether us folks,
will laugh at her jokes,
Or if we are playing or feuding.

Welcom Vix, to a pretty good thread and an outstanding group.

My new job’s more boring than most
so all through the day I will post
by making up rhymes
I will fill up the time
and my brain will not turn to toast

Is it a hijack?
Haiku are much prettier,
but that’s a new thread.

Although your effort is prodigious
The Hippie might find it sacrilegious.
Though your haiku is nice
only limericks suffice
whether subject is real or fictitious.

Your warning has been duly noted,
it was just an idea that I floated.
I won’t cause trouble
or burst anyone’s bubble
for fear of being out-voted!

(This is fun!)

Y’all are doin’ great! Keep it up!

*ProudAmerican is an odd nick.
Is it the hippie or is it a trick?
Well it truly is me
For who else could I be?
Don’t believe me? Suck on my popsicle.

The last post is covered with a shroud,
Thank goodness it wasn’t said aloud,
Cause I just can’t see,
how it could be from Hippie,
Come on poster, please make T.N. Proud.

If two posters use the same computer
Clear the cookies (so you won’t be a looter).
So as not to steal thunder
your own name go under
so the admins don’t give you the booter.

TN*Hippie I’m stretching my brain
to write you a limerick again.
By these limp rhymes you can tell
that I don’t do so well
so near bedtime from rhymes I’ll abstain.

-----:eek:

Hey folks, it’s really no jokey:
In a week I go to the pokey.
But 'twixt now and then
I’ll be wearing a grin
For all in all Life’s okey-dokey.

Check ya later, folks. Love ya all.
Peace,
TN

I’m wondering, “how could it be?”
These limerick are signed TN*hippie,
The ProudAmerican,
has posted again,
Authentic, or mere forgery?
We have a long standing tradition,
Don’t mix rhyme with nuclear fission,
But that could impart,
unless he can start,
A new limerick thread is Hip’s mission.

For Hippie to sign other names
Is truly a huge fuckin shame
‘Cause I’m here to see
Posts from TN*Hippie
Any other is just somethin’ lame!

Will th real TN please stand up!

There once was a poster TN
Who graced us now and again
But if his posts will be
Under any name but he
I’ll be stayin away from here then!

TN*hippie is not yet in jail,
So he parties with vim and regale,
Avoiding the game,
he claims a rename,
And posts at the pace of a snail.

You see, I am technically lame
(I’m TN*hippie: one and the same)
And PA helps me not:
His 'puter, too, is 'bout shot
So I’m forced to post under his name!

Yes, it’s me. Can’t stay long, though…takin’ a trip to the beach before I go to the hoosegow. Will be back in Knoxville next Thursday; check in to Knox County Hilton Friday morning. My address there will be:

Kent Heustess c/o
Knox County Detention Center
5100 Maloneyville Road
Knoxville, TN 37918

Hope to hear from y’all. (And I was kidding about the contraband: too risky. Cards or letters only, please!)

Peace,
TN*hippie

There once was a fellow from Sydney
Who experienced pain in one kidney
No worries, never fear
He just drank half the beer
Had a miraculous cure, now did’n he?

Poor TN*Hippie, without fail,
(his time in court, to no avail)
will be soon checking in,
much to his chagrin,
the Knox County Tennessee Jail.

TN*Hippie is gone for a while.
(Should we send him a cake with a file?)
Hope this never will happen
again to this chap in
the pokey, it’s just not his style.

So if someday again he contrives
to contain too much alcohol to drive,
lets hope that he walks
or to someone else talks
into driving, so all safely arrive.

Poor Spider’s nose* is so runny
and she doesn’t think it’s very funny.
With the coughin’ and sneezin’
and fever and wheezin’
her disposition isn’t too sunny.

[*proboscis?)

It read “I came I saw I conquered”,
Though something about the sign bothered,
I’d misunderstood,
and realized it should,
have read, “She came She saw She conquered”.

(The weekend’s over – now get back to limericking.)

This thread I had thought was no more,
Fallen all the way down to the floor.
But thanks to fair Style
It is back for a while
Resurrected right off of page four.
