You mean like:

There once was a girl from Nantucket

Who kept all her gold in a bucket

Her daughter named Nan

ran off with a man

and as for the gold


Nan tuck et.

Some favorite limericks:

There once was a man from Peru
Who'se limericks ended at line two....




and then there's:

There once was a man from Verdun....



and for the more esoteric among us:

There was a giraffe....

Never got around to _The_Silmarillon_ (sp?), did 'ya?

I tried it.

Heavy sleep inducer...

I thought it was gripping........right up there with the Van Nostrand
Reinhold "Encyclopedia of Mathematics". :(

No doubt about it, CS Lewis was a Christian apologist, and made no
attempt to hide it.

And that's putting it mildly. I think he was obsessed to the point of
pathology.

BTW, I have never been able to appreciate poetry, and the poems in
LOTR just didn't do anything for me. I'd love to hear comments about
them from those out there who _like_ poetry. Are they "good"? Did
they add to your appreciation of the story? Anything else?

Despite a few notable exceptions, I've always felt pretty much as you
do about poetry. Fortunately, it's pretty easy to avoid most of the
time. On those rare occasions when it appears in an otherwise
enjoyable book.....like Tolkien's.....I tend to think of it, at best,
as paying dues or something on that order. I've never actually
excised offending poems from a book with a razor blade, but I
attribute that omission to laziness (ya never got a razor blade ready
to hand when you really need it) rather than lack of desire or intent.

My fav orite poem:

Roses are red
violets are blue
some poems rhyme
and some don't

You posted pages of text for the sole purpose of adding
"LOL :)))" to the conversation ? Good grief woman, steal
a nickel from somewhere and buy a clue from your boyfriend.
And that's a bargain, most clues cost a quarter.

I see where it could get quite taxing scrollin' down to her part of the
post. To cut down on the stress and strain, I've been workin' out with
finger weights.

Op --What kind of boredom causes such petulence, Ken?--
