GIMME A BRAKE

A UFO went to land in Dakota
But the brakes didn't work one iota.
        It didn't take long
        to decide what was wrong
seems the space ship was made by Toyota!

    Your limerick is, “Out of this World!” Congratulations Ralph, on your OUTstanding win in New Contest: Out of this World Limericks! Sponsored by: Carolyn Devonshire. I’m doubling over with laughter! I must say, it is a fun way to start the day. (Sad about the real Toyotas, though.) Laughingly, Dane Ann
