Everyone with three of more limericks will appear for a "winnowing" round so they only have two in the final vote which will take place as soon as we winnow all these prolific poets.

Yeah, I had to make myself weed them out one criteria at a time. Otherwise, cute and funny wins the day.

Anyone who hasn't yet voted on Ellen's limericks, please do. They're a little close to call at this point. I'd like to see a clearer top two before setting up the overall vote for the contest.

I can't see my story for the words.

I reject rejection so I will send it back out.
