You have no idea! My ER friend came bursting through my front door bent over laughing, "We've been working on him for four hours and we still can't get it to go down, my shift ended so that's all I know at this time!"

Poor Biff..Reads like a winner to me..Way to go ..Thanks for stopping by..Sara

BTW, I am not sure if Jan was insisting on equal number of syllables per lines 1, 2, 5 and for 3 and 4. In case that is true, this would be easy to revise, my friend. Just adding in an extra syllable in lines 2 and 5."fella is" (upon for on)

Poor Biff! Hope he gets well...or...more flexible soon. Awesome write for the contest and I wish you success, Joseph! Jan will have a hard time judging all these great limericks. Hugs, Carolyn
