Two weeks ago, while attempting to place what I believed to be a fairly docile cat in a carrier, I found a feral buzzsaw attached to my finger. Within twelve hours my hand was badly swollen and eventually became the size of a baseball glove -- a very painful glove, indeed. Apparenly some cat bites are just as dangerous as a snake bite. So I was in no mood to compose limss for this contest. However, now that my hand is almost back to normal, I offer this one as an added attraction to the game.

A young lad living down in Geelong
Was possessed of a very wee dong.
And what made him much madder
Was his oversized bladder
Made time that he spent to pee, long.

It would have received my vote.

Thanks, Greg. There are a number of good ones.

I need at least one more vote to split the tie.

I voted. It hasn't helped.

Well at least you've stayed with the strength, where the winning theme is clearly the male member whether referred to as a dong or a schlong.

Greg, you can break to the tie.

Hi Everyone,

Sorry it has taken me so long to get this completed, I have had a busy week, with my son over from Japan to receive his Masters in Linguistics. I had assumed that I would be casting a tie-breaking vote for Richard's schlong limerick (No. 9), but since I last looked someone else has voted for my schlong limerick (No. 3) so I guess that makes me the winner. Entries came from:

1 - Arnie
2 - Kalleh
3 - Me
4 - Richard
5 - Kalleh
6 - Bob
7 - Mike
8 - Bob
9 - Richard

Personally I really liked Richard's schlong and Mike's dolphin dong limericks. Of the others my favourite was Kalleh's thong limerick but I would have liked it a whole lot better if she'd used the lazy pronunciation of Geelong and finished with "a thong", rather than "thee thong". For the record in Australia thongs are what most of the rest of the world calls "flip-flops", but in the singular form we still recognise it as an undergarment.

I will post a new game shortly.

The new game for the town of Penola has been posted.

Congrats, Greg! Nice game, though I hope the new one is a teeny bit easier.
