Limerick Wednesday
There was a young fellow named Clyde
who fell in an outhouse and died.
Along came his brother
and fell in another
and now they're interred side by side.
A tutor who taught on the flute
Tried to teach two young tooters to toot.
Said the two to the tutor,
"Is it harder to toot, or
To tutor two tooters to toot?
There was a young woman named Bright
Whose speed was much faster than light.
She set out one day
In a relative way
And returned on the previous night.

There is a young lady named [k]
Who learns something new (almost) each day.
What she posts on her blog will
Make people's minds boggle
And loudly exclaim, "Qu'est-ce fait!"
Awww! I'm flattered. I've been limericked! : )
(and by AO no less.)
"interred side by side"
good pun there
Hehe, I thought so! Hey, are you the same "anonymous" who thought popcorns could be identical?
I never said they could be. I merely pointed out the difficulty of proving with 100% certainty that they can not be. I was merely playing the philosphical devil's advocate.
In statistics-speak, what do y'all reckon is a good representative sample of the entirety of the popped-corn population?
What about the unpopped kernels? Why slight them? I'll bet they're all distinct individuals, each with their own personalities, likes, dislikes, etc.
(I'm the same anonymous that you suspected of being me when you asked me if I was posting anonymously to your blog. Occasionally, I just don't want to be me.)
:)
Oh! *winkwink* OK. Now I know who you are. You think I was fooled? Not by half!
There was a young man from Milan,
whose limericks never would scan.
When told this was so,
he said "Yes!, I know!,
but I always make a point of fitting as many words onto the last line as I possibly can".
