It was the world final of the lymerick telling competition and there was a tie
for first place...so the judge decided that the only way to find a winner was
to have a joke off....he announced that he would select someone from the
audience and whatever word that person said the two finalist would have to say
a lymerick that ended in that word
the judge pointed to a guy and the guy stood up and yelled out Timbucktoo
so the two finalist had to say a lymerick that ended in Timbucktoo
the first guy got and said
I've been a parson all my life
saving people from sin and stife
I've read the bible through and through
all the way from oodnadatta to Timbucktoo
(oodnadatta a place in Australia)
the second guy got up and said:
Tim and I a shearing went
we met three sheilas in a tent
they were three and we were two
so I buck one and Timbucktoo

-if you have to ask get out of the way-
Have you ever been stopped by a traffic cop and, while he was
writing a ticket or giving you a warning, you got the feeling that
he would just love to yank you out of the car, right through the
window, and smash your face into the front fender?...
