Alumericks - Limericks On The Go

This one circled in my head last night as I tried to go to sleep....

An Excella, a Cloud, and a Clipper
On a raft that dipped like they'd tip 'er
The wheels were chocked
They came safe to the dock
A close call; a near triple dipper!

[N2XBW]

The trees with their leaves are a-buddin'
The garden with spring rain's a-muddin'
And th' urge to be rollin'
'stead of doin' my chorein'
Has hit my poor brain all a-sudden!

Beep-Beep!

[aireseneca]

You want to go camping you say
Under the stars to lay
but skeeters bite
and rain's tonight
An Airstream retreat - no delay!

[N2XBW]

Yes the urge to get rollin' is strong
An' I don't think there's anythin' wrong
With gassin' and goin'
Without hardly knowin'
Where fortune might find us next dawn

Beep-Beep!

[Whizzo]

In summer when Airstreams deploy
We expect so much sunshiney joy
But aluminum skin
Feels radiation within
And that makes me a real sweaty boy

[N2XBW]

Have the hot sticky days got you floored;
Inside your Airstream and bored?
Your keyboard you're drummin',
While the A-C is hummin'.
All hail the electrical cord!
Beep-Beep

[Whizzo]

My Airstream fridge goes both ways
But it ain't coolin' too good these days
On shore power - a charm
But propane leave me warm
And my beer wants no cooling delays

[N2XBW]

I'm ever so saddened to hear
That Whizzo must drink his warm beer
That his fridge's no longer workin'
With the ice and cold perkin'
Makes me glad for the one I have here

[SteveSueMac]

It's puzzling to me - how 'bout you:
What's N 2 X B W?
I've given it no thought
But guess he's a robot
He looks just like R 2 D 2

[N2XBW]

To Steve-Sue-Mac I'll reply
Yes, N-2-X-B-W is I
No secret design
It's my Ham radio call sign
Sounds robotic, I cannot deny

73 de N2XBW

[Protagonist]

Once was an Airstreaming gent
Whose ZipDee awning was bent.
To save himself trouble
He folded it double
And turned it into a tent.

[N2XBW]

Possessed by a spirit of doom
In his Airstream he stayed, like a tomb
Started feeling that way
At a Wal*Mart one day
And is still camped in that lot, I presume

[Whizzo]

He said to the Airstreaming lass
"Your Excella has exceptional class"
But her handsome pursuer
smelt slightly of sewer
Though he claimed it was leaked propane gas

[Mexray]

The turkey's ready for carvin'
While our kin claim to be starvin'
Weird uncle Roy with his 'Stream'
This year was surprisingly clean
Along with his Iguana named Marvin

[Whizzo]

He pulled up to the packed Wal-Mart lot
His temper was already hot
His response to Black Friday
Was quite vivid, I daresay
He towed off his Airstream, then forgot...

[N2XBW]

There's only one cure you will find,
For your sad Wintertime state of mind;
Get your Airstream in motion,
Head south to the ocean,
And leave old Jack Frost behind.

[Whizzo]

A month into '14, I'm surprised!
It's most certain that time really flies.
So I'll charge up the 12 volt
Put on my good wool coat
And try winter Airstreaming for size!

[N2XBW]

Winter in Florida's fine
More pleasant than home's northern clime
But the warmth here in Winter
Is but a small splinter
Of the heat of high Summertime's prime

[N2XBW]

Greetings on Mardi Gras day
Though from New Orleans you may be away
Just whip up some king cake,
jambalaya, and fish bake
And 'laissez les bons temps rouler!'

[N2XBW]

Alone in this 'luminum bower
Underneath a light April Shower
A wet dog wants in
Though wet through to his skin
Smelling not at all like a flower
