    NASA have told us today
    Their new rover's paving the way
    For humans at large
    To live upon Mars
    I'd much rather move to LA

    A new rover on Mars lands
    In a crater filled with red sands
    Curiousity its name
    Finding water brings fame
    Rover drivers please use both hands
    At night the stars put on a show for free (Carole King)

    There once was a cannonball pool,
    And into it dove quite a fool,
    He went in by the head,
    And woke up in a bed,
    And now only can breathe with a tool.
    As above, so below

    London Olympics is done
    American athletes have won.
    These United States
    Made fewer mistakes
    As China goes home really glum

    Classics:

    Poor Johnny's dead and gone
    His face you'll see no more
    For what he thought was H2O
    was H2SO4.

    Old Man Stokes
    Old man Stokes was a gentleman fine
    Who lived beside the Raleigh line;
    Old anti-Stokes, his existance denied,
    Lived never-the-less on the other side.

    That's me in the acid
    That's me in the test tube
    Losing my electrons
    Trying to keep my ions true
    But I don't know if I can do it
    Oh no this work's too tough
    I didn't study enough
    I thought that I saw it bubbling
    I thought that i saw it burn
    I think I thought I heard it pop

    I might be wrong but here goes
    Lymerics explore and impose
    That lines four and three
    Rhyme free, can you see?
    While 1, 2 and 5 makes it flows.

    On Mars, Curiousity did land,
    in a crater with some reddish sand.
    The seven minutes of terror we felt,
    our collective breaths we held,
    Then popped the corks and struck up the band.

    An advert one day we might see,
    'When you move to Mars, travel's free!'
    They'll pay for your fare
    And when you get there
    A job shovelling sand's guaranteed.

    Mitt might get voted to stear,
    United States over four years.
    Are you assured
    Or will jump overboard?
    Happy or shedding more tears?

    Curiosity travels by wheeling,
    but I have a curious feeling,
    the people on Mars,
    in their underground bars,
    can hear something scratching the ceiling.

    On finding the water I sought,
    "How to contain it?" I thought.
    Perhaps if I hustle,
    to ask Bertrand Russell,
    I might get myself a tea pot.

    well Russell has won his last bet,
    His set is not part of a set,
    instead it's a kind
    that baffles the mind,
    a tea set that's not a set yet.

    ha haaa...love it...

    But Martians, who party so loud,
    Think noises above are the crowds.
    They are trying to get in
    For a dance and a Gin,
    Earthlings must register now.

    Mars is like prewar Berlin
    It's rakish and revels in sin
    but deep underground
    where Martians are found
    Curiosity cannot get in.

    It's not just a failed registration
    the Martians are hot on frustration
    warlike and proud
    red headed and loud
    they roasted the Earth delegation.

    Phobos, the small moon near Mars,
    Has seen better days and has scars.
    It might have been mined
    By Martian mankind
    For metal to underwire bra's.

    excellent stuff from xx

    The Martian space program allowed
    their expansion to export a crowd
    of dilligent men
    but sadly for them
    their women were too well endowed.

    Earth has some landscapes like Mars,
    But Martian stuff's bigger than ours.
    I 'd like you to know
    Who's running the show
    But I would be questioned for hours.

    It may come as terrible news
    but Martians drank all of our booze
    it happened before,
    they also explore,
    and did the same then, deja vues

    Someone I know says he's found
    A star that is square and not round
    He's quite a nice bloke
    And tells a good joke
    But ain't got his feet on the ground

    My mother who was very wise,
    said tele would give you square eyes
    whereas a good book
    (it's square if you look)
    will show all the stars the right size

    My band is called 'Drunken Nine'
    The best band in London, you'll find
    The tourists all like
    A hot band that's tight
    And everyone has a good time

    Imagine if petrol was made,
    From out of the air everyday.
    I've heard it's no dream
    As unreal as it seems,
    It has been done in the UK.

    If all the lands were burning
    And all the seas were churning,
    and all the bees
    had wobbly knees
    would tides at last be turning?

    The website once known as BAUT
    Has finally gotten caught
    The nonsense which screams
    From monitor screens
    Is now CQ, like it ought
    I wish I knew all those years ago that simply joining this board and proclaiming myself to be rational would magically transform my uninformed opinions into science; it would have saved me a lot of time and effort.

    Help me find Saturn please guys,
    It's gone, it seems, from my night skies.
    I'm in the UK
    West London, ok?
    Tell me when/where it doth rise.

    Saturn is so far away,
    To get there would take the whole day.
    Farther than Derby,
    The Isle of Guernsey,
    Is not even half of the way!

    My local pub is also far,
    Can't walk there, must go by car.
    I can see the moon,
    But not my saloon,
    So moon must be closer than Bar.

    alas many pubs closing, drowned
    as sinking economy downed,
    It gets me to thinking
    I should have been drinking.
    Is drink sinking thinking quite sound?

    Drink's sinking thinking online,
    I sometimes regret what I find.
    I've posted some junk,
    While drunk as a skunk
    But manage to leave it behind.

    I drink, it is said, to forget
    but sadly it hasn't worked yet,
    Except for my PIn
    What was that again?
    I'm standing here getting quite wet.
