Write a Limerick

[Christian B]

Do I need new drivers or not
I checked, and yes they are shot
I need woofers and tweets
And my wife trying to please
Gave me a dog and a parrot

 

[bobsvinyl]

I guess I need a brand new surround.
There are foam chunks all over the ground.
I laid out glue and some shims,
I began to pray and sang hymns.
It sure worked, they look great all around.

Now you've replaced the surround,
Your speakers look great all around.
So, congratulations
On your restorations!
But you didn't say how they sound.

 

[bobsvinyl]

You know that my old hearing is shot.
I think both my eardrums have dry rot.
But music no longer fades
thanks to my new hearing aids.
So, yes, I do like their sound a lot!!

I think URYY2B
Puzzled by someone like me.
If you get phonetically
What I wrote alphabetically
ICURYY4ME.

Two Wise potato chips had a short meeting
how their plastic bag was really misleading.
You know It's a bunch of bull
the bag is only half full.
If it was filled there would be more for eating.

 

[harman/kardon]

How about the taste of chanterelles?
(Like them more than anything else.)
After the shrooming
And pleasantly cooking
Imagine how my kitchen now smells!

 

[bobsvinyl]

Another great smell is sauerkraut.
You sure know when that stuff is about.
It tastes so good, I can't lie
when it's with corned beef and rye
and hot dogs bring the flavor right out.

 

[CoogarXR]

I reheat my 'craut hot and steaming
I would wait while the microwaves beaming
All my co-workers shout
"take that crap and get out!"
I would laugh at their anger and screaming

 

[old_tv_nut]

When you smell others' sauerkraut
It makes you want to throw them out.
When it's yours, on the other hand,
It is absolutely grand.
Of this rule I have no doubt.

 

[Jody Thornton]

I try to exercise some decorum
On this old audio forum

I waste lotsa time,
with my swift little rhymes

At least I don't induce boredom.

 

[old_tv_nut]

This house has dual AC,
Which I thought was a luxury.
But now that one's on the fritz
It's still livable; also it's
Covered by the homebuyer's warranty.

 

[Cadillac Kid]

So I've been Cleaning out my Basement
How is that for Summer excitement
Now why did I buy a Power Ranger
or a Japanese Baby Jesus in a Manger?
Oh look, a Marantz with faceplate bent!

 

[bobsvinyl]

You may think someone's junk is a treasure.
They had sold it to you for good measure.
It held a family of mice
but you will fix it up nice
and that tube amp will give you much pleasure.

 

[Cadillac Kid]

Bring home an amp with just one mouse
Has to be the best way to piss off my spouse
Even a score of a vintage Knight
Would end in a terrible fight
And she would be looking for a new house


Dedicated to Patricia, who's idea of pest control is to move. Still happily married after 16 years in a mouse free house.

 

[DonQuixote99]

If an amp were brought into the manse
With rodent in hiding, perchance
It's first night at home
Would 'round here be known
As the night of the great Marantz cat dance!

 

[Jody Thornton]

I don't mean to make such a fusssttthh
But this sibilance is driving me nutsssssttth

No problems I could find,
my arm is alligned

So excuse me if start to cussttth

 

[old_tv_nut]

An LP has a squiggly groove;
Gives your stylus a squiggly move.
The HI-FI result
Is almost a cult
But sonically, most will approve.

 

[bobsvinyl]

I love music and so I'm behooved
to play those vinyl slabs that are grooved.
The needle travels the trenches
sometimes it jumps and it wrenches
But plays music until it's removed.
