The beavers carpool is working out great, plus as an added benefit it comes with a daily mail thread loosely based on when we are planning on leaving. Today the thread was poetry themed and we were challenged to come up with limericks. Kieran (who, after the fact, claims that the limericks were supposed to be beaver related) posted hers here. My critique for her limerick was primarily focused on the fact that most good limericks sound dirty. To demonstrate, I created my own about Jeff:
There once was a guy from Vancouver
He studied and learned a maneuver
He tried with his might
But it was too tight
He shouldn’t have trained with a Hoover
I challenge y’all to come up with a better limerick than that! Post away in the comments, but original limericks only, please!
There once was a dude on the net.
He spent most his days there I bet.
His games on the net
His friends on the net
Has Jake seen the light of day yet?
There's presently a geek in Seattle, who on the net likes to rave and prattle. If he wasn't my son, I'd think he's a bum, instead of just simply-a brattle!
There once was guy from Seattle
He challenged y'all to a battle
He cried put down that Hoover
Help me maneuver
For a I've been filled by my saddle
A young man from Portland named Jake
Had a wart the size of Rikki Lake
He showed it to the world
Who unanimously hurled
When puss oozed through Rikki-wart's break.
Ok, so sue me. I'm tired.
