There was a young man from Purdue Whose limericks stopped at line two. Or the corollary: There was a sweet girl from Verdun. {Almost, but not quite, completely unlike anything you've ever seen before.} >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> There's one novice netter (or more) Who thinks we have never before Heard the stop at line one Or the one at two done -- My God, not again, I implore! We'd better all head for the hills Before net dot joke overfills With limericks old And recently told -- For this is the traffic that kills. Seriously, we had literally thousands of limericks only a couple of months ago (I was an offender myself). Maybe someone could offer to send canonical lists of limericks (there seem to be quite a number of such lists here and there) by mail to people who are interested ?? Gordon Fisher
