You have new messages, but no more after this!!! | |||

Since there are about sixteen Romes in just the USA, can we simply end each line with a different Rome? I know Greg would say no, but he's not here, soooo...? BTW, did the wolf in the story of the original Rome have a name? Did the expression, "sucking hind tit" come about as a result of Remus' subordinate position? | |||

Geoff, if you can make a meaningful limerick about five different Romes, I say go for it. "No man but a blockhead ever wrote except for money." Samuel Johnson. | |||
|
Member |
Ahh, that word "meaningful". I can't make a meaningful limerick out of one Rome! I wrote some non-meaningful ones, though. | |||
|
Member |
At a meeting, but I'll think and hopefully send one tomorrow. | |||
|
Member |
I have several so far, and of good technical quality, but more is always merrier. Have at it, folks! | |||

Still wanting entries from several regular contributors. You know who you are! | |||
|
Member |
Mine is in. I didn't think I was going to like it, but in the end I'd have to give it a B+, i think. It's not an A, though. | |||
|
Member |
I did submit something. Ugh... I've forgotten how to write these things. Senility has set in. | |||
|
Member |
We make a great team, Geoff! You have forgotten and I still haven't learned. Some of the ones that get the most votes, I don't think are good and at other times, I agree that they are. I guess I am unable to assess their quality very well. | |||

In WHAT??? PS: Sattva, how can you possibly think of FOUR rymez with Rhome? OY! | |||
|
Member |
I'll tell you when the contest is completed. LOL PS: It doesn't mean any of them are good! | |||

Member |
I hadn't expected Rome to be hard to rhyme. Geoff, to answer your question, my limerick is in Hab's private messages. | |||

Speaking of Rome, I recently watched a video rendering of Ken Follett's "The Pillars of The Earth." It depicted England when it was still under the religious control of Rome. If you like blood, gore, treachery, and a zillion plot twists, watch it. Great cast! If you read fifty times faster than I do, read the novel. | |||

Or perhaps - English - Chicago - custody - limbo - bad taste - sipid (or, by contrast, teresting) Lotsa choices! I'd like to post these Saturday morning 8/25 or even Friday evening, so we can give them due consideration and vote over the weekend. Still missing one regular participant, though. | |||

- sane - carcerated -continent - effable (It's sad when there's nobody to eff with.) I'm still not receiving your posts, Hab, despite having repeatedly switched off the "hide posts" option. This is In - scrutable! | |||
|
Member |
...and bizarrely enough I just yesterday found your profile checked as blocked on my devices. Ineffable indeed... | |||
|
Member |
Only my profile? How about if I face you? This place has gremlins! Or maybe a golem? | |||

Member |
I found my problem (and fixed it) on the Go To > Personal Zone > Ignore List screen, and working from there. Is that where you’ve been? | |||
|
Member |
Yes. It doesn't seem to understand my requests to quit blocking you, hence the supernatural considerations. | |||
|
Member |
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ | |||
|
Member |
I can't wait to see what rhymes everyone else used. | |||
|
Member |
The results are here, and they make a nice tome. Vote early and often ! | |||
