    James, thank you so very much for posting those wonderful old limericks!

    They are so innocent!

    I'm sorry to report to you that my education in the arena of limericks was NOT so innocent.

    The only ones that I ever learned were...

    DIRTY!

    DIRTY LIMERICKS!

    There once was was a hermit named Dave,
    Who kept a dead HO in his cave!
    He said, "What the hell..."
    "...you get used to the smell!"
    "And think of the money you save!"

    Oh, that's just terrible.

    Why do I remember that awful thing?

    I'm not gonna do any more.

    By the way...you can't use the word "WHO-E" at this message board.

    Fun limericks, James. Bravo.

    Now about Chris. Hmmm. Should Bonita see it, the E word may be used. You know, your middle NAME!

    I happen to know that Chris wrote and posted an original limerick on another board. Come on. You can do it.

    No way, darling Chris. I NEVER scolded you. I warned you that Bonita may be rather upset by your limerick. (Course, it is hard for a MOM to read that poem. Necrophilia is a little tough on this ole' mom. )

    Those limericks were all written by Edward Lear. He wrote TONS of them, with illustrations to go along with each and every one.

    THE TABLE AND THE CHAIR

    Said the Table to the Chair,
    "You can hardly be aware,
    "How I suffer from the heat,
    "And the chilblains on my feet!
    "If we took a little walk,
    "We might have a little talk!
    "Pray let us take the air!"
    Said the Table to the Chair.

    Said the Chair unto the Table,
    "Now you know we are not able!
    "How foolishly you talk,
    "When you know we cannot walk!"
    Said the Table, with a sigh,
    "It can do no harm to try,
    "I've as many legs as you,
    "Why can't we walk on two?"

    So they both went slowly down,
    And walked about the town
    With a cheerful bumpy sound,
    As they toddled round and round.
    And everybody cried,
    As they hastened to their side,
    "See! the Table and the Chair
    "Have come out to take the air!"

    But in going down an alley,
    To a castle in a valley,
    They completely lost their way,
    And wandered all the day,
    Till, to see them safely back,
    They paid a Ducky-quack,
    And a Beetle, and a Mouse,
    Who took them to their house.

    Then they whispered to each other,
    "O delightful little brother!
    "What a lovely walk we've taken!
    "Let us dine on Beans and Bacon!"
    So the Ducky, and the leetle
    Browny-Mousy and the Beetle
    Dined, and danced upon their heads
    Till they toddled to their beds.

    That reminded me that I have two books by Edward Lear, "Complete Nonsense" #1 and #2. Just found the Chair and Table limmerick in #2. Unfortunately, they're German translations. I mean, how can you even THINK of translating limmericks??

    In the interest of continuing this extremely sagacious thread,
    I’ll share a joke called WHO SAYS WOMEN CAN’T FOLLOW
    DIRECTIONS?

    The CIA was looking for a few good agents. The main requirement was
    that they must, without question, follow orders. After extensive training,
    three candidates emerged: two men and one woman. Then came the
    final test.

    The Director of the CIA lead the 3 people down a hallway. When he
    got to the first door on the right, he took out a gun, put in the clip, and
    handed it to the first man saying, “Your wife is right behind that door.
    You must go in and kill her.” The first man said immediately that he could
    never do such a thing and wouldn’t take the gun. He was asked to leave.

    When the Director and the other two reached the second door on the
    right, he handed the second man the gun and said, “Your wife is
    behind that door and you must go in and kill her.” The man held the
    gun and anguished for about 3 minutes. Finally, he said that he just
    couldn’t do it and handed back the gun, so he was asked to leave.

    The Director and the lady reached the third door, and he said, “Your
    husband is behind that door and you must go in and shoot him.” The
    lady took the gun, went in, and closed the door. Bang! Bang! The
    Director heard two shots and then some thumping around. Then there
    were several more shots fired. Bang! Bang! Bang!

    Then a lot of crashes and thumping. After
    5 minutes, the lady walked out, wiped the sweat off her brow, and said,
    “Sheez, I wish you would have told me the gun was loaded with blanks.
    I had to beat him to death with a chair.”

    Awaiting the return of one H Rocco. Has it been a week?

    On another front, is this thread now the official sign that the circus has left town and is now visiting a place that once cared for it? "? for PETERK," from ascii art to ghosttown, but still the longest thread ever to appear in ANY movie music-related online message board!

    The circus may have left town, but there are a few of us clowns who just won't go...

    I'm currently auctioning some very unusual items over at eBay, which is why I haven't been posting as much this week. My seller ID is: ckinsinger@earthlink.net if anybody's interested in looking at my stuff.

    Well, I finally found the Patriot score today. Certainly nothing really new, in fact a mix of a lot of previous Williams scores, but still wonderful stuff. I can hear passages that are reminiscent of Phantom Menace, Nixon, Born on the 4th of July, Saving Private Ryan, Lost World and most importantly Far and Away and, for the first time in a movie score (I think), his "olympic sound".

    Just thought this might be the best place to post this, since I've missed the "original" Patriot threads by some weeks. And I even managed to say something on topic at this thread.

    The "1776" LaserDisc received the first bid today. I'll be disappointed if I don't get at least $100 for it.

    Those old 1947 Vogue Picture Records are being fought over! It's exciting to watch the prices go UP and UP!

    Rare? Why do you say that? I check the soundtrack section pretty regularly, and almost everything that's going to sell at any price gets at least one bid in the first day or two.

    Hey John! Maybe it's just the stuff I sell, but most items don't receive any bids until the last day...and then all hell breaks loose!
    One particular item (a doll) just sat there for 5 days, received a $16 bid, and then during the last 5 minutes of the auction, BANG! BOOM!
    When the smoke settled, the winning bidder spent $375!!!
