Limerick of the Day

Where do you come up with this stuff?

I love it!  You guys are cracking me up…

We dream in limericks and make sure to keep a pen and paper on the bed-side table…

Grubman and Blodgett were appalled

when they read that their picks caused the banks to fall

you see the papers decreed

that Elliot Spitzer’s best deed

was to roll ‘em both off Wall Street on their balls

Not to take away from the humor value of these limericks, but your meter on a few of them is off!!  Standard Limerick meter:

First, second, and fifth lines: 3 feet

third and fourth lines: 2 feet

Feet typically amphibracs or anapests.

Like so:

There once was a trader name Honus
Whose boss could not handle his slowness
The boss had him paid
As slow as he’d trade
Poor Honus still waits for his bonus

Nice one, Ben. Duly noted.
