:: Results From "Limericks! Limericks! Limericks!"  ::
Entrants of "Limericks! Limericks! Limericks!"  were asked to write a limerick
about Writing.Com, its birthday, writing or writers in general. Congratulations
to the following five (5) winners:

  1st Place: 250,000 Gift Point Winner

         Where writing was once just a bore,
         and typing a bit of a chore,
         along came a place
         built on blank cyberspace
         making fun now for years numbering four!

         The first stories came trickling in,
         causing Master and Mistress to grin,
         but never they knew
         what a flood would ensue
         voicing art where the silence had been.

         Now today if your schedule is calm,
         try visiting writing.com.
         Its there that youll see
         why the thousands - like me -
         call it homeplace, our solace and balm!

  2nd Place: 100,000 Gift Point Winner

         I logged into Writing.Com tonight,
         And was surprised to see such a sight!
         There were balloons everywhere
         Confetti in air,
         How brilliant display, and so right!

         Reflecting on this site's past changes,
         The engagements and rearanges,
         I await the next year
         With joy and not fear
         For the seniors as well as the strangah's.

         With many things to be looking o'er,
         With friends and goals waiting more,
         We all should raise toast,
         To our leading web-host,
         "Good luck to year number four!"

  3rd Place: 50,000 Gift Point Winner

         There once was a writer named Brooke,
         who gave Writing.com a quick look.
         Since then she can't sleep,
         she's addicted too deep.
         She's now writing her fifty-first book!

  Honorable Mention: 25,000 Gift Point Winner

         I'm hurling the purple confetti,
         with joy, big and wild as the yeti.
         My cyber-home's FOUR!
         It's the site I adore.
         I send poetry, love and spaghetti!

  Honorable Mention: 25,000 Gift Point Winner

         Oh, woe to the waif who discovers
         The Site that outshines every other;
         It is Writing.com,
         Four years going strong,
         That speaks to me more than my mother!

         It beckons me even while sleeping;
         My teeth tucked away for safekeeping ~
         Dentures or no,
         Online I go
         I MUST give my keyboard a beating!

         Writing.com, I adore you
         Release me to sleep, I implore you!
         Promise me true
         You won't misconstrue
         My failure to EVER ignore you.
