Kathy, these Doubt ones are great. nun, fun and stun. I love it. And Maggie, you never stop. Don't you have work to do? Oh never mind, keep writing those limericks. They're great. Maybe you will find a new calling. I hear they are looking for a Poet Laureate for Connecticut. Maggie is right, Mary - this is addictive. I have written two tonight watching our favorite team (Patriots) on Monday night football! Maggie - I second Mary's motion to make you Poet Laureate of CT

Aaaaaah! This is a sickness. Stop me, someone, please . . . for the love of God, someone stop me before I limerick again! Longlashes, this one's for you. First case? Oh joy, it's Peke ashes And a client who instantly clashes. In Miss Chenowith's mind* No detective is blind . . .But she'd fold if she saw his eyelashes!* Now there's a concept. NO Don't stop, Maggie. Your limericks are wonderful. I think, though, that a new addictive disorder has been discovered...that of writing Limericks. I guess it would be LWAD. What else would explain my being up at the computer at 4:48 a.m. about to post one! Of course, being able to post some screen caps along with the Limerick certainly adds to the attraction. Funnily enough, I have one for Lori, too. Dunbar's wardrobe is straight from GQ. There's no doubt he looks just great in blue. Though his hingeless sun glasses Hide those luscious eye lashes, He is still very handsome, that's true

Oh, I could do this all . . . day . . . long. Kathy, I just came here from the Happy Halloween thread, where I noted that if you were up this early I hoped it was to "polish a few limericks." Well, ask and ye shall receive! That is a great one. I say you be Poet Laureate of Pennsylvania, I'll take Connecticut, and rducasey can handle Rhode Island. That leaves New York in the middle -- c'mon, bebe, hint, hint. Okay, here's another from The Pilot. Jim comes home in a bit of a fog; This day's been a grueling slog.But what thanks does he get? Christie D's in a pet: "Y' don't need me," she says. "Try the dog."

Okay, I have more from The Pilot but this one just came to me. "You might be obsessed with Blind Justice if . . . " Jim's plan tore the tec team asunder -- Digging Rocky's been a gruesome blunder. Marty sneers, "It's Bin Laden." Karen looks so downtrodden . . . Wishing Russo'd been found Four Feet Under?

Oh my goodness I am speechless. I'm away from here for 5 days and the Board explodes with limericks! What a treat to read them all at once! You guys are awesome! What talent we have here.

Events on the Roof were not clear Based on what Jim thought he did hear. They went back to the roof, Where they found solid proof Of Terry's action that Dunbar did fear.

Explode is right - and really good ones too! If you are ready for intervention, just cry out or is this a case similar to those of us who are happily inflicted with READ? Thanks to you and Maggie for keeping the limericks flowing, dare I say, especially those written with "me" in mind! They were absolutely fabulous as are my monicker and you know what! Those things!!!! Great job gals - I have already given Maggie karmas for hers - Kathy, here's one for you!

It’s official, folks: rducasey rocks. Not only did she send me a couple of Blind Justice DVDs she just happened to have lying around the house (!), included in the package was a delicious photograph of some dishy blond dude signing programs outside the Walter Kerr Theatre — which, for some reason, is liberally dotted with lipstick imprints and what looks suspiciously like drool stains. Plus one edge is slightly bent, as though someone had been sleeping with it under their pillow. rducasey, this one is most definitely for you, with much affection and thanks. My “Marlon’s Brando” magnum opus, in one swell foop. * * * Lightening-fast, lashing out in the dark, A white cane crashes down on its mark.Though the perp scoffs, “You’re blind?” In one moment he’ll find Dunbar’s bite is far worse than his bark.* * * Bleached white images capture Jim’s head Infusing his soul with deep dread. To “play up the blindness” Will come as no kindness But deepen his anguish instead. * * * To a detective’s job born and bred, it Comes naturally (thus to his credit), That cheeks cut with a zed Will combine in Jim’s head . . . But he still can’t relax. There. I said it.* * * Though sensitive, complex, and smart, Jim struggles to speak from the heart. All past glories have paled With the knowledge he’s failed.Healing comes with the line: “It’s a start.”* * * Wrenched-out words. Feeling sick, almost queasy. Wounded women are all that Jim sees. He Is forced to admit That these dreams from the pit Leave him shaken . . . and “This isn’t easy.”Happy Halloween to one and all! Mags

Maggie has posted her magnum opus. Now I am posting my swan song! At the restaurant there was a big fight after Jim had left dance class one night. His gun it was lost. Jim's job it could cost. He asked them to return it forthright.modified to correct an error in grammar

Oh, and I just had to give Maggie another karma for wonderful Marlon's Brando limericks and because she used "zed"! We Canadians are incredibly fond of that letter in the alphabet, although the Nissan dealer looked at me like I had two heads when I said I wanted to buy a 300 ZedX!

Thanks to the hard work of our very own longlashes, I can now re-post with the sceencaps I was craving when first I wrote this stuff. "Marlon's Brando" junkies, do check out our photobucket album, which is now graced with many of longlashes's goodies. Do I adore you all? Duh. So here I go . . . again . . . * * * Lightening-fast, lashing out in the dark, A white cane crashes down on its mark.Though the perp scoffs, “You’re blind?” In one moment he’ll find Dunbar’s bite is far worse than his bark.* * * Bleached white images capture Jim’s head Infusing his soul with deep dread.

I think I might have stopped the action dead here with my "Marlon's Brando" limerick blog last night . . . so here's a nice normal one from The Pilot to get us going again. Poor old Lynn was a bit of a whore (Well, just look at the stockings she wore). On the streets for some cash She earned only road rash And a crime scene no cop could ignore.I know that's not the right screencap, but I couldn't find that great overhead shot of the crime scene (where you can see Ms. Bodner's fishnets) in our Photobucket site.

It isn't the overhead shot, but will this one do?
