waiting for Apache to download at work so thought i would waste half an hour or so....

There was a French man called Ritong,

Who stood out from the BBO throng,

In one game, under duress,

He took a finesse,

And Farfie exclaimed 'Well, that WAS wrong!'

There was a French lass called Farfie,

Who stood out more than her dear Henri,

When she took a finesse,

And claimed all the rest,

She shouted "Thats how you do it, mon cheri!"

[slothy]

Not one of you 'popular' posters and BBO personalities are safe :rolleyes:

[Walddk]

waiting for Apache to download ....

You don't have to wait for that. I have it on a CD.

 

The Shadows: Apache, 1960.

 

Hank B. Marvin (born Brian Rankin on 28th October 1941 in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, England) was and still is a great guitar player.

He can also play Bridge (Over Troubled Waters).

 

Roland :rolleyes:

Somewhat off topic...

 

There once was a young man named Slothel

Who worked in a smelly French brothel

When he finished his work

He started to jerk

And his mouth went dripping and frothel

talking of the 'generationally-illiterate'

 

nice to know you keep abreast with modern music Rolly :rolleyes:)

 

Alessio

 

PS or even that you keep abreast; nice to have one in a cupboard somewhere for those lonelier moments

There was a programmer named Uday,

Who was asked what he did all day,

He said 'I spit out all this code

For you guys to download,

So i can spy on you all whilst you play'

There was a Canadian* called Fred,

Who was asked what he did in bed, :blink:

He said 'It doesnt involve sheep,

As i count cards in my sleep,

And i cant get 52 out of my head!!!'

 

PS assuming his Green Card hasnt come through :rolleyes:

[slothy]

At least mine was bridge-related :rolleyes:

[slothy]

There was a Belgian called Marc, (spwdo :rolleyes: )

Whose spelling was way off the mark;

Although he couldnt give a shot,

When his spelling was hot,

His bite was worse than his bark!

[adf]

There was a bridge player named Hamman

Who grabbed a guitar and went jammin'

  With Marvin and Wald,

  But he never got called,

So he picked up some dice for backgammon.

 

Meckwell might be harder to rhyme.

[slothy]

There was a Turk called Kulay,

First name is Aisha, by the way,

She plays with the best

And she knows she is blessed.

She plays with me. What more can i say?

[slothy]

k half an hour up

[Walddk]

She plays with me. What more can i say?

Poor soul. Hope she survives the ordeal B)

 

Roland

[mr1303]

Here's one

 

There was a young man named Micky (B)

Who had a reputation for being a thickie

He always went off

Which lost him a lot

But he said "I care not one dickie"

[pbleighton]

"There was a Canadian* called Fred,

Who was asked what he did in bed,

He said 'It doesnt involve sheep,

As i count cards in my sleep,

And i cant get 52 out of my head!!!'"

 

Very uncharitable and inaccurate. Fred lives in Nevada, not Utah.

I once had a fistful of kings,

but my partner was fishing for swings,

his psychic "one club"

(he had been down the pub)

led to 6N off five for my sins.

[slothy]

I once had a fistful of jacks,

3 in each of the reds and the blacks,

When i tabled my hand,

My opps didnt understand,

When i said that 6 points was my max.

[slothy]

There was once a Dane called Roland,

Whose vugraph remarks were off-hand,

As we are now sponsored by Pepsi,

Although their donations are flexi,

All Coke bettings from now on are banned!

[aisha759]

What can one say about Patapon?

A lot in my opinyon

She is our beloved french champyon

Endearingly known as "La bavarde" of BBO

Check out it's meaning if you really wanna know

And make sure you use french prononcation :)

 

Aisha

[aisha759]

When i play with Master Slothy

I always prefer to be dummy

He "hufss and puffs" in anger

When I play as declarer

And gets pains in his tummy

 

I ruff his winning Ace

I put him under finesse

I make sure he is endplayed

I think enough has been said

I put the poor guy under duress

 

The Turk :)

[slothy]

And who said blank verse was dead Aisha darlin'

[EricK]

There was a bridge player called Fred

Who couldn't tell black cards from red.

If a diamond was played

He would put on a spade

So he now plays backgammon instead.

 

It's not about our Fred, of course.

There was a young Lall from Plano

Who's schooling went down the draino

At night and unseen

He masquerades as Justine

And signs all BBO posts as Jane O.

There was a young man named Justin

Who majored in bridge discussion

With no active peers

Due to very few years

He created his alternate - Dustin.
