- Via Constrained Katie:
Quietly without much notice The
Omnificent English Dictionary In Limerick Form has accumulated
(as I type) 15029 word definitions in limerick form. A sample limerick
definition for "bat":
A bat is a mammal that's small,
Flies at night with a sonar-like call.
Like a rat or a mouse,
If there's one in the house,
I am not very happy at all.
Threat or menace?

has no problem with brutal honesty when it comes to government spending
on "public" broadcasting. Reporting Senator Schumer's
idiotic "Don't starve Big Bird" cry, Sullum notes:
As the father of a 2-year-old, I see Sesame Street almost every day, and I've noticed something Markey hasn't: Big Bird could stand to lose a few pounds.
Good point; Bird (his closest friends call him "Bird") didn't get that pear shape by sticking to birdseed.

what it explains. It explains something, OK? I call for full funding
of this research.
