In a creative spurt inspired by St. Patrick's Day, a few choice limericks celebrating one of Oregon's favorite citizens, the always exciting, unpredictable, daughter of the trailer park, Tonya Harding!
Limerick 1
From triple axel to three ring circus
Tonya’s life—what is today’s new purpose?
Whacked Kerrigan in the knee
Defeated Paula Jones in three
Wrestling a transvestite? Saints preserve us!
Limerick 2
Duck! The spinning hubcap is flying at this writer!
Unlike Paula Jones, this reporter doesn’t want to fight her
Now it’s TVs in the squared circle
Your were so hoping it was Urkel
Isn’t she Piper Laurie? Oh, no, he’s Rowdy Piper!
Limerick 3
Your skating life was once the province of so much jewelry
Then, for some reason, your existence devolved into tomfoolery
Your wedding tape may rot
Paris Hilton you're not
But that's what happens when you marry a guy named Gillooly
Limerick 4
Tonya, you had a fight in a barSupposedly saved someone in a carYour life is a messBut this we must confessSuch perverse pleasure we get from afar!
Limerick 5
Tonya, your life is oh so surreal these days
Wrestling, boxing, spinning hubcaps-all such a daze
What happened to the skate?
Where you were first rate
Or was that just a teenage, hormonal phase?
Journalism at large, entertainment advice, advice for sports parents and spectators, and a few random musings!
