    THESE ARE ENTRIES TO A WASHINGTON POST COMPETITION ASKING FOR A TWO-LINE

    RHYME WITH THE MOST ROMANTIC FIRST LINE, BUT THE LEAST ROMANTIC SECOND

    LINE:

    My darling, my lover, my beautiful wife:

    Marrying you screwed up my life.

    I see your face when I am dreaming.

    That's why I always wake up screaming.

    Kind, intelligent, loving and hot;

    This describes everything you are not.

    Love may be beautiful, love may be bliss,

    But I only slept with you because I was p * ssed.

    I thought that I could love no other

    that is until I met your brother.

    Roses are red, violets are blue, sugar is sweet, & so are you But the

    roses are wilting, the violets are dead, the sugar bowl's empty and so

    is your head.

    I want to feel your sweet embrace

    But don't take that paper bag off your face.

    I love your smile, your face, and your eyes

    Damn, I'm good at telling lies!

    My love, you take my breath away.

    What have you stepped in to smell this way?

    My feelings for you no words can tell,

    Except for maybe 'Go to hell'

    What inspired this amorous rhyme?

    Two parts vodka, one part lime.

Once finished, he is totally fine again....

    In principle.... I f a stretch of road 10 miles long has averaging speed cameras along it, with a speed limit of 50 mph, it should take you 12 minutes to travel the 10 miles. If you are stationary for 6 minutes, can you do the rest of this road, at 100mph, and avoid getting caught ?
