I'm assuming you all know what a limerick is. Now's your chance to prove you are the best limerick writer to read this thread. 
The winner, decided by a panel of judges still to be decided, will get... well nothing  . But it's good fun anyway.
Obviously limericks which violate the PD's are not allowed which does not prevent the use of "Nantucket" but severly limits it. Limericks which are composed about the outpost or members of the outpost should recieve bonus marks but only the judges can really make that decision.
Apparantly official limerick form is quite strickt but I think we'll be flexible with that.
Now I'm going to start things off with my first limerick:
There was a young man, fat,
Who spent the day stroking his cat,
He'd make evil schemes,
To topple regiemes,
While sitting alone in his flat.

There once was a man named Nicoll,
Who certainly crawled out of a hole
He was no picnic,
Rather a big mean cynic,
And he was in love with a beauty named Pol.

Kymburlee was a goddess,
And everyone envied her hotness,
She opened a cabana,
Somewhere south of Havana,
And Now SG can go topless.

THere once was a goddess named Cinna
She liked tatoos made of Henna
She grooves to RS
His moves keep her breathless
When he hugged her,he made her feel like a winna(er)

There was a strange man named Hobbie,
Whose quest was to best our pal Nobbe,
He went to a dance
In Nobbe's groovy man pants
And was mocked right back to the lobby.
QD, and they were funky pants, I say. F.U.N.K.Y.

There was a dictator named Iain,
Who everyone's frightened of seein',
He visits a Wookie,
When he needs some Nookie,
And everyone else ends up fleein'.

Awww, Nicoll, you've beat me to what I was going to write about!
Adds hers anyways:
"To Iain, with love from your Wookiee"
Read the message inside of the cookie.
"No AJ, just Grant!"
And continued the rant,
"Or no nookie from your sexy Wookiee!"

There once was a man named KC,
Whose bonnet was home to a bee,
His real name is Kevin,
What rhymes with that... seven?
But he's really a 'sadarse', says he.

There once was a man named SG.
Who once wrote a poem 'bout KC.
Then Kevin took a sledge hammer and went crazy for some reason.
Squelch.
Yes, I know. VERY liberal limerick form

There was a nomad named Kass.
She really was quite the sass.
Despite her need for adventures with LAD.
She got stuck home sick with Dad.
And it's left her feeling quite crass!
There once was a Sith Lord named Mar.
Who wanted to rule the stars.
Along came Icy
and took his evilness away nicely.
Now they just hang at the bars!

*LOL at Nicoll and Shellie*
I will have my revenge.
There once was man named Iain,
Whose rhymes they never would scan,
When asked why it was,
He said "It's because...
... I always try to cram as many words into the last line as ever I possibly can."
... wait.
Firstly, that's not original, but is a famous limerick, with the first line subtly edited. I'm a plagiariser.
Secondly, that's not revenge. That's just another limerick about me.
Thirdly, there is no point (3).
"I'll get me coat",
He said, with a gloat.
And now, not a boat!
This limerick, it's tot.
(If your mispronounce "tot". :[ )
Iain

There was once a wookiee named Grant
Upon revenge AJ was hell-bent
He went to Hong
Who played along
And Grant was left to repent

There was a young lady named Polson,
Who's evilness just wasn't wholesome,
She left men in her tracks,
Covered in candle wax,
And she desperately wanted Nicoll-son.
(Pols, I told you I could write one about your candle wax fetish.  )

There once was a Goddess called Kymmie,
A wood-nymph who lived in a big tree,
Protector of Trees,
Lumberjacks fall to their knees,
Then she returns to her tiara-encrusted throne... ee.

Nicoll was a man without wit,
His head was a big empty pit,
He was mad as a hatter,
'Cuz I did him one better,
And now he's in a wee bit of a snit.

There once was boy named Wedge,
Who lived his life on a ledge,
one day he fell,
and it was swell,
and now he lives in the hedge.

There once was a lady named Polson,
Who's poetry shocked me a ton!
The word she used was "snit"
But I didn't realise that was it.
And now that I have I am done.

Life with Iain is a racket,
But I think I know how to crack it,
You say something mad
Iain gets sad
And replies with a colon & bracket.
No?

My limericks are lame,
The rhyming's a pain...
And they all have the wrong number of lines.

There are some things you just cannot utter,
Without certain guys shouting "gutter!"
They're in there and can't float,
And I can't say I'm tot,
Cause I doubt Ally's happy where Ray put her.

This thread was originally brandewd as a contest so we probably need some judges.
So I guess I'm taking applications for judges.
Tis does not mean you've all to stop writing limericks

There once was a man from Ecuador,
Who did nothing but eat more and more,
He ate such a load,
That it made him explode,
Now he's splattered all over the floor
There once was a God up on high,
Who cast down his wrath from the sky,
He burned all the sinners,
Smote the Pop Idol winners,
And that annoying Adam Sandler guy

Okey dokey... got a couple here, even tho they are pretty lame...
1.
There was a young man named Hobbie,
Who was blamed by most anybody,
"For what?" you may ask,
"This is such a farce!",
Still everyone keeps on blaming Hobbie.
2.
There was a young man named Iain,
"Emperor" he was hell bent on being,
"No one can stop me!", he yells,
Thunder and Lightning a-swells,
And thus everyone came to his lynchin'.

Polson was the first judge,
Against Nicoll she did bear a grudge,
limericks she did read,
but her reading lacked speed,
So some think her brain's made of fudge.
Sorry, that was a bad one.

It was. And as a judge, I give you a big fat "D" for...DUMB. Stop flirting with me, Nicoll. You're just not my type.
Oh, and I'll add a protest.

There once was a Polson and Nicoll
Who didn't like each other at all
But that was a load of dirt,
Coz what they really did was flirt
And soon they'll be married and with baby Polscoll!
