Bad News

When the Doctors exam was through

he said I got good news and bad news its true

        You've chosen the worst

        to hear about first

they're gonna name this disease after you!

Awesomely funny limerick, Ralph. You came through with the laughs big time! In fact, all the Soup's best humor writers did. There were many great entries and it was hard ranking them as each one gave me a laugh. Congratulations on your win! Love, Carolyn
