We need more votes!

BTW, I got a message from someone that she/he mistakenly voted for the wrong limerick. You can’t correct these without deleting all the votes. So - subtract a vote for number 10 and add a vote for number nine.

#9 is in the lead. Other votes?

I guess we only have 6 voting then.

The winner is: Hab! Congratulations! I loved his "tiller squeak," and of course his reference to the Nancy and Ernie Bushmiller.

Here are the others:

1. Shu
2. Bob
3. Bob
4. Sattva
5. Sattva
6. Bethree
7. Bethree
8. Sattva
9. Hab
10. Kalleh (I was positioned right to write this one. )
11. Geoff

For such a hard word, these answers are pretty darned good! Thank you everyone!

You're up, Hab!

Hmm.

In the interests of keeping with the KISS principle, I suggest we just follow the road and see where it takes us...
