Your Weekly Politickle: BEST OF SHOWS

Feel free to publish, post, or pass on Your Weekly Politickle by F.R. Duplantier:

BEST OF SHOWS
Barry tunes in TV every night:
Rin Tin Tin, Scooby-Doo his delight.
Then there’s Benji and Lassie,
Augie Doggie and Daddy –
How they work up that man’s appetite!

From the archive:

CAVE CANEM
All the diplomats gathering, greeting,
And locating their specified seating.
In their midst, a big grinner,
The man hosting their dinner.
Only he really knows what they’re eating.

CHOW TIME
At the Kmart, the president got
A new 16-quart stainless steel pot;
He’d been getting much thinner,
So he had friends for dinner:
Rex, King, Rover, Spike, Fido and Spot.

Last week’s limerick:

BULLIES
In the 50s our fathers knew best,
But back then they could scarcely have guessed
That a mere three percent
Who are sexually bent
Would intimidate all of the rest.

Last week’s limerick:

WIFE SENTENCE
As evolving positions now gel,
He pronounces this travesty swell,
But you might change your view
About “gay marriage,” too,
If you’d married a mate like Michelle.

Eating Cats and Dogs


Maybe Obama just thought he was eating dog? It could happen, as the Three Stooges demonstrate in the above excerpt from one of their more educational films.

RANDALL ROBINSON
You might meet him for pastries and punch,
But I have the most harrowing hunch
That you’d better decline
When he utters this line:
“I am eager to have you for lunch.”
(2005)

PRESERVATION CAJUN-STYLE
Save the salmon and save the seal,
Save the gator and save the eel,
The dolphin, the whale,
The mussel, the snail:
Save them all for my next meal.
(2001)

Last week’s limerick:

IRONIC CURTAIN
You’re not really “transparent” at all:
When you’re asked for your records, you stall;
You keep everything hidden,
Public access forbidden.
Mr. President, tear down this wall!
