Write a Limerick

[ConradH]

For Hyperion-

There was a big amp from Sansui
It's mechanical design was ptui
The outputs were rare
And fast as a hare
Unsurpassed when it plays Louie Louie

 

[Hyperion]

Superb Conrad !!! - love it

My STR-V5 by Sony
Sounds great and that's no bologna
Hits the lows and the highs
On a Bridge of Sighs
And the soundtrack to "My Little Pony"

 

[Rome]

He lived on a wooded hill
With his moonshine still
You could put it to the test
Surely that brew was the best
Known 'round those parts as liquid drill.

Rome

 

[SuperjazzyJa]

When looking to make people smile
A good joke my take quite a while
But if you search long
And remain strong
You might have them hitting the tile

 

[ConradH]

Let us consider the Crown
It might be the best amp in town
Not costing a bank
And built like a tank
It gives one no reason to frown.

I used to have money in hand
For records and seeing live bands.
But I joined Barter Town
And bought gear by the pound,
Dollars blew away just like sand.

 

[dcmfan]

Let us consider the Crown
It might be the best amp in town
Not costing a bank
And built like a tank
It gives one no reason to frown.

I've heard all the raves and the rants
But still love the sound of Marantz
With speakers that reach
One hundred pounds each
It gives me a twitch in the pants

Move Magnepans without a tractor.
You won't find a speaker compactor.
But they take lots of space
In any room at your place.
And need your wife's approval factor.

The Crown K2, is a very good amp,
it rivals the cleanness of Mac,
with "plenty" of watts,
to fulfill all your plots,
of cracking the walls in your shack.

"Thirst was worst, just before the first,
the second floated down with great ease.
I may have another,
then one for my brother
now one for the road if you please."

(Peter Bogle / "bogle111")

Pete would really have liked to participate in your thread, Bob. Perhaps I will dig out some more of his Limericks from time to time - when it is convenient to you folks...

Post all of his limericks you want, Chris. It is a great way to remember him.

As I sit in my old easy chair
I take time to reflect (that's a scare!)
Music adds much to life
like having a good wife.
That's stayed with me (unlike my hair).

 

[bobsvinyl]

Just a friendly reminder of the rules for constructing a limerick.

'A kind of humorous verse of five lines, in which the first, second, and fifth lines rhyme with each other, and the third and fourth lines, which are shorter, form a rhymed couplet."

As Teach says, "Carry on."

 

[Christian B]

These verses really have style
The best ones have made me smile
When it comes to this skill
I truly have nil
I guess I'll just lurk for a while.

 

[bobsvinyl]

Chris, you are really too humble.
You are fine and did not stumble.
So please post us some more,
Let us see what's in store
and speak up, please do not mumble.

 

[harman/kardon]

"More from the core, hoping for a score
Fans will be in scarves and native kit.
A chance of a goal
When offense find a hole
The loosing team will take more of a hit."

(bogle111)

 

[Rome]

Opened my fridge for a late night snack
Suddenly came a loud clang & clack
Pondered what could be the matter
That would cause such a clatter
Now its my favorite bicycle rack.

Rome

 

[harman/kardon]

"Tunes are like prunes, some intended for lunes,
While others make you want more and more.
The sound is so sweet,
Like a kid with a treat
But then the prunes make your body lose score."

(bogle111)

 

[Christian B]

I had an HK 730
Whose switches would sometimes get dirty
Deoxit a little
And give them a twiddle
My daughter now thinks it sounds purdy
