MIA's Limerick of the Week: 
    
  We’ve got something just as chic
As New York’s fashion week
The canines are strutting
No ifs ands or butting
Who said February was bleak?
 Now life’s all about flowers and weeds
It’s all about doing, and deeds
The actions speak louderThan words and we’re prouder
 And nothing to do with our breeds. 
Like with dogs not everyone’s pro
Just like the Westminster Club Show
They run win and place
But it’s too much of a race
’cause the mixed breeds and mutts also glow
 I salute the whole kitten caboodle
Of doggies just like the noodle
Not all linguini
Some is tortellini
And blends like the new goldendoodle 
Yes nothing like purebred
But now just having said
That the face on the mutt
No if and or butIs more luscious than garlic bread. 
 A newfound basketball starIs raising high the Knicks bar
He’s born to win
This Jeremy Lin
He can probably bounce on tar!
 Obama’s hanging tough
On some post office budget stuff
It’s the US mailThrough sleet and hail
No Saturday delivery – that’s rough! 
The Post office is running out
Of funds without a doubt
Who still uses stamps?
Who writes notes? You get cramps!
But the mailman still has clout!
 
The Grammys were pretty swell
From Springsteen to Adele
The dress on Rihanna
Was pure nirvana
She cast quite a backless spell
 Lady Gaga didn’t sing
Nicky Minaj played the exorcist thing
Tony Bennett crooned with flairKaty Perry had blue hair
Sir Paul McCartney and The Boss were King.
 Jennifer Hudson took the stage
Not a pin drop silencing the rage
From the sudden news
Of Whitney -- the muse
Vanishing at too young an age. 
Dear Whitney Houston has passed
Her legacy is vast
From The BodyguardTo partying hard
Her radiant voice is everlast-ing. 
Rick Santorum is up up and away
Rising above Mitt today
On the Michigan track
Is Sarah Palin coming back?
Now where is my Chardonnay!?!
