Putting The Green In Greensboro
(originally uploaded by Mute*)
Two years ago this Saturday, I was having my final “meeting” at Ameritrade. This March 17th, I’ll be spending my entire day over at M’Coul’s Pub celebrating… beer.
Yeah, life is good is like that.
I’ll be partaking in the festivities (courting my precious, Guinness) and pitching in both as a crowd clearer for the fire-twirling troupe, The Emberellas, as well as the block party photographer.
Oh yeah, I have one other responsibility…
The 5th Annual Limerick Competition!
That’s right, folks, I’m going to be a judge in the finals.
So take a moment from your busy day and drop us a submission (or twenty). Who knows, you might even make the final ten and not only get to perform Saturday night and have a shot at winning a trip to Myrtle Beach, but get to see if I’m still standing at 8pm. (the current over/under is 9pm)
Drop us a few limericks, toasts or song lyrics and then get ready to don your finest green gear. In just five short days, bagpipes will be wailin’, bands will be rockin’ and Irish lips will be a smackin’!
(Disclosure: I’m the new Web Dude at M’Coul’s and they’re paying me in brunch omelets. Seriously.)

Saturday is going to be a blast!
Hope you get lots of great limerick submissions-
well, i hope you’re dropping a few our way. i mean, you’re a writing teacher — you have no excuse. ;-)
and tell the kids about it if you could. i don’t think there’s an age requirement. it would be fun to see what the come up with anyhow.
Here’s one:
Here’s to you
and here’s to me
May good friends
we always be
But if by chance
we should disagree
F**k you.
Here’s to me.
i’ll drink to that ;)
