I will have a go, I promise. Not tomorrow, though, as I am meeting an American friend for a few pints of decent beer - which we always do whenever he gets to the UK. I doubt I'll be in a composing mood when I get back. Richard English | |||

Here's some incentive for you to write at least ONE limerick for this game. So let’s say that you get in a jam And it’s best that you go on the lam There’s a beautiful place Where you can hide your face And that’s Thailand, once known as Siam.* * Did you really think I was going to try to rhyme “Thailand”? Thus one day, in his uniform spiffy, Jeb Raltar left England cause if he Stayed then old Reading Gaol Would be home, without fail So he scrammed to Siam in a jiffy. A remittance man’s what Jeb became After leaving Olde England in shame. He’d be sent pence and pound But he shouldn’t be found (It’s a civilized old Empire game). So Jeb Raltar searched all through Bangkok For a place where his penis could dock With a slanty-eyed pearl Or just any old girl Who would not see his package and mock. “Hello,” one said. “My name is Anna, A school teacher and once wedding-planna. Now I’m down on my luck But with my loads of pluck I just know I’ll be soon top banana.” To be continued.......... | ||

What will happen to Jeb and Anna? The King of Siam sought a teacher In his country. Could anyone reach ‘er? While they looked, his two wives Had the time of their lives As the king’s afternoon double feature. So they found Ann and Jeb busy screwing With a heated debate then ensuing. They said, “Ann, take the spot Learning up the king’s tot, But don’t tell the king what you were doing.” So Ann went to live in the palace With meals served on gold plate with gold chalice, Where she met with the king-- His chest festooned with bling-- While his old wives looked on with much malice. Anna said, “You sure must be a winner As king, and you look like Yul Brynner.” But the king was porked out (The oversexed lout) And just wanted to know, “What’s for dinner?” After supper, the king took a torch And some ladies out onto his porch. Then the sexy old fool Unlimbered his tool And engaged in a lengthy debauch. So Anna was fit to be tied And repaired to her room where she cried, Since she hoped to be queen But the king was obscene. But in Act Two, thank god, then he died. So Anna went back to Jeb Raltar Who had no plans to go to the altar. And the sexy old fool Unlimbered his tool, And again Ann had someone assault her. | ||

Here are the entries. Only a few this time since I believe some were handed out with the bonuses at AIG. Jerry Thomas A real estate broker in Thailand Wants everybody to buy land She also sells shells, From the isles of Seychelles. She moves them around with a sly hand. What an interesting country is Thailand Its mountains are known as its high land. Neighboring Viet Nam and Burma Are both terra firma And Thailand is sure not a nigh land. Richard Enlish If you’re thinking of going to Thailand Beware, for it’s rather a sly land. Though its main town’s “Ban Cock” There is much there to shock — I think its name ought to be “thigh land”. Kalleh If ever I’d move out my land, I’d prob’ly not move into Thailand. While plenty of Buddhists, There aren’t many nudists, And with seventeen charters, it’s “sigh”land! Bethree5 A homesick Scot living in Thailand Found solace from pain on an island Where a nude dancing Thai Showing off a slim thigh Did a Jig on his back (‘twas the Highland). Proofreader (Not in the running) “This land is your land and it’s my land,” Said the King to the people of Thailand. “But I can’t stand the heat, So I’m beating my feet To a vacation home in Rhode Island.” | ||

The judges have convened and, after carefully studying the entries, have (by a vote of 1-0) decided the winner is Bethree5 It was a very close call due to the excellence of the contributions. Where to, B? | ||
