Limerick Friday LXXXXXXXXXIV: Patron And Football Don't Mix, Plus Engineers Ain't So Much On Abstract Thinking


Lendale White has always been quite a hoss
So to what does he attribute his weight loss?
He stopped drinking tequila, he said
Dropped 40 pounds—20 from his head
No wonder he knew the Spanish for “halfback toss”

Engineers look through sextants for thrills
Have the personality of a jar of pickles (dills)
They can use a yogurt cup to fix a bad hole
They’re sure they didn’t come from a tadpole
But their downfall is they’ve no social skills

The health care debate has seen every rant
Now, “It’s socialism!” is the Republican chant
Change seems to frighten them so
When that Commie W. wasn’t so long ago
Consider options open-mindedly? They can’t

Felt a little like that “Money Pit” movie
Made me feel like rolling a big doobie
Wearing goggles and an old bandana
Wound up looking like Tony Montana
But the ceiling is going to be loved by lil’ Ube

Fantasy football is back and that’s pretty cool
Every league has at least one super-tool
Some folks take it to the extreme
When luck often decides the top team
Don’t take yourself too seriously is the first rule

Last time
