This item is for people to make up their own limericks.  One person puts in
the first line, then each person puts in one line at a time until the person
who puts in the fifth line, who then puts in the first line of another
limerick.  As you know, the format goes like this:
     
     #1 Seven syllables
     #2 Seven syllables, rhymes with #1
     #3 Five syllables
     #4 Five syllables, rhymes with #3
     #5 Seven syllables, rhymes with #1 & #2

And please, try not to make it too risque or gory, nor to use it for
mean-spiritied flaming.  Okay?

An octogenarian turnip

that wanted to be burnt-up

and taught them all UNIX

One fine day while picking my nose

Or so this macabre story goes

You'll not guess what I found
As I probed all around

I found a little boy's toes.

There once was a man from Nantucket

 Who kept all his cash in a bucket...

He said with dismay,
"How much must I pay?..."

...it's phony, so I'll chuck it."

A woman once from Shoreditch
