Hugh_Hoy Posted May 24, 2008 Report Share Posted May 24, 2008 Okay â??dudesâ?Â, the limerick contest begins today. First place prize, 1500 baht; second place prize, 1000 baht; third place, 500 baht. Contest will be certified only if we have at least EIGHT entrants. Contest is off if this is not achieved. Board registration date of contestants must have been made BEFORE March 1. Limit of three entries per contestant. Entries must be received no later than June 8. Entries are to be submitted to "hughhoy@hotmail.com" All entries will be posted anonymously shortly thereafter and a second thread will be posted for voting which will last about a week. (Results of voting will be made after the close of voting.) We got some good â??warm upâ? efforts earlier, but for those who were too timid to give it a try, think again. 1000 baht can still get u a â??short timeâ? or a few beers/drinks. And the competition ainâ??t that tough . 555555555555 Good luck all. HH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bangkoktraveler Posted May 27, 2008 Report Share Posted May 27, 2008 What is a limerick, as if I didn't know? I think I can come up with 2 lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julian2 Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 A limerick is a five-line poem with a strict form, originally popularized in English by Edward Lear. Limericks are frequently witty or humorous, and sometimes obscene with humorous intent. The following example of a limerick is of anonymous origin. The limerick packs laughs anatomical In space that is quite economical, But the good ones I've seen So seldom are clean, And the clean ones so seldom are comical. Wiki.

Hugh_Hoy Posted June 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2008 Only about 6 more days until the contest closes. Guys...there have only been TWO entrants in the contest so far. Contest rules stipulate that there must be AT LEAST EIGHT entrants to have the contest. Let's get those keyboards busy!!! HH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Munchmaster Posted June 3, 2008 Report Share Posted June 3, 2008 Am I allowed to submit my "warm up" effort? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Central Scrutinizer Posted June 3, 2008 Report Share Posted June 3, 2008 I've just sent in two. I am thinking of another. C'mon you pussies we need 4 or 5 more entries to make it a contest. CTO? Munchie (a warm-up? Just send one in!)? Old Hippie? (Dude, you know you have one about Si Saket in you!), Julian? Let's go guys. My 1,000 baht will buy some beers at a meeting the end of June where ever the hell we meet up on a Friday! (I already sent in the 1st place winner, so go for 2nd and 3rd!) It's easy once you practice a few. Get lewd and crude. These are limericks. You know: There once was a girl from Nantuket etc. 5 lines. Easy. Give it a try and let's get a contest going.
