Limerick Contest-Al the Plumber

Al the plumber was in such a funk 
     He's outwitted by a pesky skunk 
          He got called out at night 
            to such an awful sight 
Critter stuck in a drain, how it stunk!

Hilarous! Never thought of a skunk, but thought of lots of rats in toilets and drains. Nice limerick for sure!
