*The Limerick Book*

Shootin J's

There once was a man from Nantucket
who shot his ball in a bucket
two points said he
then he said with glee
"they gave me the shot, so I stuck it"

Plus 1 for throwing in Nantucket, a must for any Limerick competition. Minus 2.5 for "said with glee." That sounds suspiciously like the one at http://limericks.chickenwingsoftware.com/status/24/

How well does it fit the category? 6.0

Score: 6.0

I like it. I'm giving extra points for the "said with glee" line. It's the best line *ever*.

How well does it fit the category? 8.0

Score: 8.0

Very nice. The only fault I can find in it is that you devote two lines to say that he was saying things. Other than that, nice work.

How well does it fit the category? 10.0

Score: 8.0
