Limerick Friday LXXXXXXIX: Kimmy B. Returns To "24," Plus Hurley Kinda Looks Like Chewbacca


Every week, lots packed into a single hour
Jack perseveres with his superhuman power
The one thing I can say about "24"
Is this show is surely never a bore
Now even better with the return of Kimmy Bauer

Angel Cabrera finally delivered the goods
He and K.P. might as well have been playing under hoods
CBS ignored the best performers at the Masters
Jim Nance fell in love with Lefty even fasters
Tired of the media hating others to chase Tiger Woods

They robbed a cookie-selling 9-year-old Girl Scout
When they had to return the money, they proceeded to pout
This story of the dumbest girls ever made me loller
They make Miss South Carolina look like a scholar
The crumbling of our society makes me want to shout

It's the return of basketball's very own Teflon Man
Once faked an ankle injury in the NBA, was never a fan
Then he proceeded to harass as a coach with no quibble
And reduced the once-proud Knicks to bits of kibble
The hoops world should have given him a lifetime ban

From starting to the bench was the path of his career
To allegations that he and Christian Laettner were queer
This is the tale of the untalented Mr. Paulus
Whose soccer-like flopping skills used to appall us
Could it be that he'll play football for Dick-Rod and his sneer?

Miles is capable of talking to a dead soul
His dad, Marvin Candle, is a big-time a-hole
Hurley's writing Empire Strikes Back
He looks a bit like Chewie, that's a fact
Sawyer had to knock out a potential mole

Last time
