And I love these limericks, as well as your awesome narratives. Quality over quantity I'd say, though you're good either way. Always, Laura

You do crack me up with these; so few people can write good limericks and you are definitely one who can.

Brilliant. But sometimes a one liner is more memorable than a narrative. Your limericks are great fun.
