They actually have an official limerick contest in Orillia once a year at the Stephen Leacock home, which is a heritage site here in Orillia. It has attached to it a small vistor's centre, where the Orillia Folk Society used to hold its song circle, and still holds regular concerts. I believe we will be hosting Rick Fielding at an upcoming one this Fall.

At any rate, one year I entered some limericks in the contest. One of them went like this...

A conceited old bugger named Leacock
Used to strut 'round this town like a peacock
Till they got an old boat
And set him afloat
With no paddle, and opened the sea cocks

It didn't win anything. I was amused...they were not.

Had the one about Titian been submitted, I think it might well have placed or even won.
