A great limerick with a twist. Sad that its true. Clever, Rico. Hoping tomorrow will bring better news.

Leave it to the Lone Star State to be hit by a catastrophe of this magnitude. Poor planning! Love the punch line, Rico. Hugs, carolyn

To the point, Rico! Bullseye. This is a FAVE limerick for me... Fire up that quill for the next one, friend. Peace, Gershon
