It’s time to announce the latest Limerick of the Week based on submissions (on this blog and on Facebook) in last week’s Limerick-Off.<\/a> I’m very pleased to announce the winning Limerick of the Week and the Honorable Mentions:<\/p>\n

Congratulations to BYRON MILLER a\/k\/a ERROL NIMBLY who wins Limerick of the Week for this funny verse:<\/p>\n

A husband who’d stepped on some toes,
\nAlways staying out late with some hos,
\nWoke to breakfast in bed
\nAnd a short note, which read:
\nHere’s your sausage, I hope it regrows.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

And congratulations to these Honorable Mention winners (in random order) David Lefkovits a\/k\/a Dr. Goose<\/a>, Jane Shelton Hoffman, Matty<\/a>, RJ Clarken<\/a>, Gordon Richmond, and Byron Miller a\/k\/a Errol Nimbly. Here are their respective Honorable Mention limericks:<\/p>\n

David Lefkovits a\/k\/a Dr. Goose:<\/p>\n

A fellow who\u2019d stepped on some toes
\nWhen competing with ballroom dance pros
\nDisplayed in his jive,
\nWhile broadcasting live,
\nWhat a slip of the zip might expose.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Jane Shelton Hoffman:<\/p>\n

A fellow who’d stepped on some toes
\nHad created a large group of foes.
\nSo in spite of his drive
\nHis career took a dive
\nAnd he ended up stocking at Lowes.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Matty:<\/p>\n

A fellow who\u2019d stepped on some toes
\nHad an ego as big as his nose,
\nUntil one day his bride
\nShot a hole in his pride
\nAnd told him the sex really blows.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

RJ Clarken:<\/p>\n

A fellow who stepped on some toes
\nAnd garnered political woes
\nTold more lies and then cheered
\nWhen opponents got smeared
\nWhile the public got led by the nose.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Gordon Richmond: <\/p>\n

A woman who\u2019d stepped on some toes
\nBy writing her triple X prose
\nWas sent off to jail
\nAnd denied any bail;
\nNow she lives with the rest of the hos.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Byron Miller a\/k\/a Errol Nimbly:<\/p>\n

Said a sultan who\u2019d stepped on some toes,
\n\u201cIn a harem, that\u2019s just how it goes:
\nWith my wives all entangled
\nA few may get mangled —
\nIt\u2019s best to arrange them in rows.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Congratulations again to all the winners for your wonderful limericks. And thanks to everyone for your fun submissions.<\/p>\n

In the next couple of minutes I\u2019ll be posting a new Limerick-Off,<\/a> which gives you yet another opportunity to win Limerick Of The Week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
