Two poets, Longfellow and Nash, were at the gates of heaven, and St. Pete told them there was only room for one poet in heaven at this time. In order to decide who was to enter, each of the poets had to write a poem ending with the word (or syllables, as it turns out) Timbuktu and must mention the sea.
Longfellow;
I see the sea, I see the shore,
I hear the mighty ocean roar.
Tall sailing ships 'gainst sky of blue.
Their destination: Timbuktu.
(OK so Longfellow was a bit weak in geography)
Nash:
Tim and me, to sea we went,
Spied three women in a tent.
Since they were three, and we but two,
I bucked one, and Tim bucked two>>>>>"WITZELSUCHT"
From Dorland's Illustrated Medical Dictionary, 26th edition.
witzelsucht (vit'sel-zoocht) [Ger.] "A Mental condition characteristic of frontal lobe lesions and marked by the making of poor jokes and puns and the telling of pointless stories, at which the patient himself is immensely amused." >>>
