Orgasm is a great stress reliever.  
If she’s slow to respond, guys, don’t leave 'er!  
It may take a while,  
But look at the smile:  
The result is a more eager beaver.

England - New York is too far  
When you sail on a ship from White Star  
They ended the trip  
When the hull got a rip  
The Carpathian ain’t got a bar!

The Titanic caters every wish;  
You can enjoy any gourmet dish;  
But telegraph Britain  
To whomever you’re smitten:  
“You feed the cat, I’ll feed the fish.”

I’ve studied fishes, both in depth and brief.  
I know all about sex on the reef.  
But with my girlfrind away,  
More than many a day,  
I find myself desparately needing relief!

If one’s to believe what one reads,  
A dolphin just might serve your needs.  
But does that warp us  
To have sex with porpoise?  
Would Flipper even put up with such deeds?

I have pussy in bed _every_ night;  
As a man, I know that’s my right.  
It’s warm and fuzzy and nice,  
But this pussy likes mice!  
And ‘meows’ on my face at first light.

TennHippie you’re way past the rail  
I too enjoy sex with a female  
But it’s just plain silly  
To make love to “Free Willy”  
Unless of course you’re a sperm whale.

Weekends used to be good  
golfing with iron and wood  
now I think rhyme  
most all of the time  
To even exclusion of food.

At work I feel all alone  
as Jewish collegagues atone

or even a ring of the phone

Somebody screwed up on their posting  
Who did it deserves a good roasting  
Those ads were a pain  
They so rattled my brain  
I deleted them all. (Just boasting.)

Manhattan, my friend in New York  
To pass time, watch Fonzie or Mork  
Business has to wait  
As you see now, your fate  
Is tied to that of those who don’t eat pork.

Arg bit the dust,

And Byz up their ass stuck a spike.

When folks lose the skill to intuit,  
Or have done something wrong and now rue it,  
The panacea for their ill  
Is to say “It’s God’s will.”  
But I agree with _Nike_: **Just Do It.**

A good limerick takes a little luck,  
Some wit, and a whole lot of pluck.  
The theme’s oft risque,  
The rhyming risky,  
But you’re free to use words like _fudge_.

You may think my screen name’s no fun.  
But look closely, and you’ll spot the pun.  
_Two_ types of diving, you see  
Give great pleasure to me;  
But only one leaves _her_ breathless when done.

A delightful pun, I’ll say up front;  
But now I’ll have to take the brunt  
Of chicks’ criticism  
Of this witticism:  
They don’t like me to say the term _cunning linguist_.

You’ve guessed the entendre I’ll bet;  
But for the dense who don’t get it yet:  
I can dive in the ocean,  
Or work up her lotion;  
In _both_ cases I get my face wet.

TennHippie I almost believed  
You were leaving, yet I was deceived  
Now don’t pull that shit  
In the BBQ Pit  
Now you’re staying, I feel so so relieved.
