    Why is dubya suddenly so nice
    And no one's heard lately from Rice
    Did they finally give in
    Engaging in sin?
    I never did think he was pious.


    I have a small hole in my arm
    Just gave blood, no cause for alarm

    It's better, it's said,
    Than a hole in the head
    And for sympathy, works like a charm

    People say Borat's a must-see!
    But I couldn't stand Ali-G

    But I couldn't stand Ali-G
    The gang-sign fingers
    And all the bling-blinger
    Made me wish he'd get stung by a bee!


    What a good movie was "The Departed,"
    My ravings are not half-hearted!

    But if the Kazakhs are pissed
    and feel like they've been dissed
    then maybe Borat's a movie for me

    My Prius gas mileage is nil
    when I'm driving up a steep hill

    My Prius gas mileage is nil
    when I'm driving up a steep hill
    But when downhill I coast,
    " 60 MPG!" I boast,
    And the speed makes my 3-year old squeal!

    But with DiCaprio and Marky-Mark
    For whom acting's not an art
    I'll wait til DVD renting has started

    For a fun little flick go rent "Mumford"
    It's fresh and provides some nice comfort

    It's so good, you see
    I'll buy the DVD
    If it's not out I'll be broken-hearted!

    And when the game's done
    There's more ways to have fun
    It's better than Falun Gong

    Are limericks worse than cliches?
    For passing the hours and days?

    Not so, says VinceDee
    and Livelychick agrees
    This thread is fun in many ways

    My Windows is slowing to a crawl
    Should I reinstall or do nothing at all?

    I could do nothing
    But nothing comes of nothing
    Out of nothing comes nothing at all

    If you don't know the word
    You could be a nerd
    Most people are; that's ok.

    Of cliches we've had enough for a day

    He's got a big head
    On eggs I must tread
    And still he goes off in a huff

    Beer's a most wonderful drink
    A brilliant invention I think

    But the more beer I sup
    The harder to get it up
    So really, I think beer stinks

    Now coffee's the drink for me
    Except when I'm having some tea

    But "Tea," said the Duke
    "makes me want to just puke"
    "But it's what Britons drink, and that's me."

    Now whiskey, that's the drink for me
    Start my morning with a flask (or three)

    O' whiskey for courage mon ami

    To rant and rave on nothing new
    It's such a bore
    I can't take it no more
    And, I have to ask, can you?

    [Ok, I did the whole thing this time. Sorry. Feel free to start another.]

    Actually, what you're trying to say is, Priuses suck, or Prii suck.

    "Prius's" with an apostrophe indicates the posessive, and that does not appear to be what you meant.

    Can someone help me with a limerick? I'm terrible with these.

    Maybe something about our little friend who doesn't have a command of punctuation and lives under a bridge...?
