This enormous island popped up in yesterday's Jeopardy questions. Let's give it a whirl. PM me your limericks, pliz.

Oh. I thought it was a cartoon from Disney.

Thanks much, Bethree! I'll start thinking...

I wish I could do that. Dang! I just figured out one for Cologne.

It's a challenge-- have fun! Two in so far.

Yes, a huge challenge! Normally I like to rhyme the whole word, but not this time...

Why don't you share it with us?

Because it's nasty.

We're pretty easy going here, Geoff.

I finally got mine in.

In what?

Geoff, you just reminded me of an old Morecambe and Wise Joke. (If you don't know who they were, that's your loss - they were the best double act on TV)

Anyway, they had a running gag where Eric Morecambe would start to tell a joke that began "There were two old men sitting in deck chairs. One said 'Nice out isn't it'..." at which point Ernie Wise would stop him because "you can't tell that joke on television".

The punchline was, I think, never given, but it in't hard to work one out.

No, you must be thinking of Irritable Bowel Syndrome.

I suffer from Irritable Vowel Syndrome.

Sorry just back from a long wkend away.
We have 6-- could use another--
Kalleh what's your deadline?

Well, I have no deadline. I am in South Korea now and won't be back for another week. Whatever works for you, works for me. Thanks for doing this!

Wellllll?

Would love vote soon. I hope I win because I have a great word.

Proof, we want you playing again!

Let's go with whatever you have. It's summer and people are taking vacations.

Oh, thanks, Bethree!

OK folks, poll's finally up. Sorry for such a delay! Thanks for all the pith. I mean fish.
