My Mamma Didn'T Raise No Fool

I played monopoly with my friend, Joe With his siblings...Jack, Jackie, and Jerro I have never been beat'n They all claimed I was cheat'n When I purchased the space that said "GO" I played poker and ante'd my blind Bet money on a good hand- to find I won a pocket full of cash Then, I bolted in a flash When they saw I had five-of-a-kind From the looks that they had on their faces When I X'd all the squares in wrong places When I played Tic-Tac-Toe I got three In-A-Row 'Cause I X'd all but two of the spaces

Smart limericks and smart thinking, Charles. It’s not your fault if your opponents are less inventive than yourself. Terry

Loved these, Charlie. You have an enviable sense of humor. Your limericks were a hoot, and pretty good suggestions on winning, too.
