    Let's create some poetic crust.
    Add one line to the poem, it should be less than 10 words, the rhyming scheme will be AA, BB, CC, etc, that means something like....
    1st line = In a galaxy far, far away,
    2nd line would be something like.... I heard a crusty old pinballer say,
    3rd line would be whatever you add to the poem.

    Let's try it.... I'll start.

    In a galaxy far, far away,
    I heard a crusty old pinballer say,
    My name is the monk, don't mind my funk, and this website sure is.... ok.

    Very nice poem Rascal. Smile Let me start over, I am such a bad teacher, it is so hard for me to explain stuff. The first 2 lines were an example, you pretty much finished the poem and broke all the rules Smile Try to just add one line, 10 words or less. It might have looked like a signature, but the first line was suppose to be....

    OK, now start over....

    But as the years took its toll,
    maintaining balls took it all,
    So they pulled out their plungers and thrust 'em.

    There once was a group of crusty old men,
    That spoke just of pinball, again and again.
    They couldn't get laid,
    They rarely got paid,
    And the worst one of all was named Ken.

    There ya go. A right proper limerick.

    There once was a man from Pintuckit
    He carried his balls in a bucket
    He said "what do you think?
    Can I post a link?"
    But that cranky ol' admin said "suck it!"

    He walked into the gloom,
    of the darkened room.
    .23 pins
    ..23 pins
    A flash of silver,
    Bride of Pinbot, he'd kill her.
    .23 pins
    ..23 pins
    He strode to the center and looked all about,
    There stood a Flash, and there a Blackout.
    Star Trek and White Water beckoned him near,
    While a screaming black and white skull, called from No Fear.
    .23 pins
    ..23 pins
    Roadhouse rumbled the room and Old Chicago tantalized.
    While The Pirates machine had a ship capsized.
    Baseball was in season as was football in College Days.
    He could spend all his quarters in so many ways.
    .23 pins
    ..23 pins
    The bunnies on Playboy were sexy enough to fit in on Avatar.
    Taxi and Back to the Future each featured a car.
    Twin Win, Road Race and Flying Turns;
    All of these classics were as good as moderns.
    .23 pins
    ..23 pins
    Twilight Zone and Monster Bash paralleled Cross Town.
    And there on Big Show was a large, happy clown.
    And then cam Medusa, that evil bitch.
    All by herself, in a darkened niche.
    .23 pins
    ..23 pins
    His pockets were empty of the silver he'd flashed,
    The cost of all the high scores that he'd smashed.
    To the players that watched he shouted and showed a crusty-ass grin,
    "Fuck all you lame asses, I beat you again!"
    .23 pins
    ..23 pins
