The Great Limerick Challenge

[mousme]

Okay, folks. As some of you may know, I'm a complete limerick fiend, and I want to make a compilation to fuel my obsession.

So, I want you to post all your favourite limericks right here. If you have friends who aren't on my list or who have no LJs, point them here too. :)

There is no limit to the number of limericks anyone should post. In fact, I encourage you to post as many as you can think of. Feel free to make some up, too.

Have at it!

Forgot about this one (and probably for good reason): When dwivian posted a short silly verse about Jesus, someone responded, "At least it didn't start with, 'There once was a fellow from Nazareth.'" Knowing a challenge when I see one, I threw together the following:

There once was a fellow from Nazareth
Who raised from the dead poor old Lazaruth
Saying, as he returned,
"Now I hope you have learned
That your smoking is terribly hazardouth.

Yes, I need more sleep. Why do you ask?

There once was a fellow from Nazareth
Who was feeling quite cross and beref'
   "I can heal the blind,
   and those with no mind,
But there stands a man who is deaf!"
