Limmeric...

Now I know I've tried this before with all the success of Michael Jackson at a baby-sitting agency but here goes...

There was a musician named Dolby
ta taa tatattatta taa
ta ta tattata tattata taa taa
and in the end he married a Colby

It's been many years since I spat my early morning tea all over my keyboard when I originally read this. All I can remember are the first and last lines. It's driving me crazy!!!


If anyone remembers the original from the Tap room please let me know or if anyone want to fill in the Tattaatataaas with new content feel free!

Insomniacally,
Jon

Well, I thought after 5 months someone had better do something..

There was a young fellow called Dolby
Who used to make music quite boldly
With his keyboard aplliance
He was blinded by science
So he went off and married a Colby


This one's not a limerick but one of my young patients told me this today and I thought it worth passing on

Mary had a woolly coat
And I know how she got it
She used to have a little lamb
But then she went and shot it

awww, bless

Thank you!
Thank you!
Thank you!

That has been bothering me for literally years!!! I also posted the question in the old forum but to no avail.

Now I can sleep soundly at night again. (if I didn't have tonsillitis that is...)

Cheers Doc.

Very good that one...I've got another version that my dad taught me that is maybe too blue to repeat here!

Love limmericks, the Dolby one is very clever!

Mary had a little lamb
It was full of frolocks
It tried to jump a 10 foot wall
And landed on it's elbow


Well

No need for smut!

I'm still laughing from Mark Gardner's entry now...I loved that.

Thanks for the laugh!

Hey White! What you doin' to yourself?? First you fall off a bike and hurt your wrist, now you've got tonsilitis. Take care. And by the way - you should be doing wheelies whatever your age. Go for it.

Cheers, 98

Is the word that rhymes with 'frolocks' smutty? I didn't know that. I just thought it was a Sex Pistols album.

I laughed out loud at Doc Jon's entry

[d.owen]

the word in question elaine refers to the male sperm making factory!

[Mark Gardner]

The Sex Pistols argued their way out of the inevitable law suit by claiming that it was a reference to medievel travelling monks (or something like that!)! At least that's what I was told all those years ago.....
