Happy Guy Fawkes day Claire!
I'm celebrating something I was afraid I'd never see in my lifetime - the election of a person of color as president of my country. And the election of a president who's successful campaign suggests he can inspire, organize, and lead with hope and courage rather than fear and anger.

Well, Half Color anyway. :p

But it is an important event from a historical standpoint, and hopefully a sign of the old ways of categorizing people being thrown out.

"Across the street" is a forum for forum games and such. This morning I found a Limericks thread there, and came up with a little ditty about a very popular poster over there.

Well....:o....over lunch inspiration has struck about a number of fine folks over here as well. If anyone has any problem being the focus of a limerick, let me know and I'll skip over you. :)

But...since begging forgiveness is better than asking permission, one lucky contestant wins being first....(remember this is all in fun! and no limes were harmed in the making of these limericks)

Maureen is the best of the best
Every morning she goes on a quest
To the threadies it's said
She brings breakfast in bed
And libations to those who are stressed

@ Claire- if it is V for Vendetta- how apropos is that?



If you've seen the film, V wears the above mask. Its based on a popular likeness of Guy Fawkes:


And everything he does is based on the ideals guy fawkes represented to him. All the way through its counting down from one Nov 5th toward the next and what he will do then. It starts by him blowing up the Old Bailey, and ends with the blowing up of Parliament. While its not based on the life of guy fawkes, its based on the memory of what he attempted to do and use that memory to overthrow an opressive government

Or at least thats how I interpreted it...

But...um...you might change your mind. ;)

Honey has a nature so sweet
That even sugar will fail to compete
For her dancing, and style
I'd walk a good country mile

I'm glad you like them. :)

Let's see... I still have one for: Ann, Lexxi, Brenda, Claire, Mari, Elora, Lindal, Trout, and Pep.

(Sorry Amara, Oryx, and everyone else I'm coming up blank right now)

A small long-eared rodent named Jerry
Was eaten by Ann -- that was scary.
But we saved him from harm
'Cause we all love his charm
And his lim'ricks that make us all merry.

Lexxi is a dangerous one
to jerboas who she has on the run
she fills them with fears
as she chews on their ears
and then casts them aside once she's done

Claire is friend who's so swell
She saves us jerboas as well
From mean kitties and such
Who would eat us for lunch
But where she hides us she never will tell

Oh....

I almost forgot Lindal Kidd
Now I bet that she'll wish that I did
When I soon pass around
All the pictures I found
Unless bribed well for keeping them hid

/me runs for cover!

Elora's lucky as any could get
Found true love in SL, better yet
For her llama moved in
But now trouble begins
She can't quite find a saddle to fit.

Interesting. Lindal swore to me a while back, there are NO pictures, anywhere of her, in ANY compromising situation.

My, how things must have changed!
