ALAC members amused us in San Juan by coming up with some light-hearted 
ICANN limericks.

Enjoy! :-)

====================

Back by popular demand.... the ICANN Limerick treasures of Andy & Annie 
McNonymous:

====================

An international dude

Was in a rather foul mood

He asked for domains

You gave him plantains

He could only eat multi-byte food



There once was a girl from Nantuck,

Who wanted to sponsor dot-fuck.

“No, No!” said the GAC(k),

“You must take a step back.

Consensus is not bottom up.”



Civil action groups rarely have luck

When their causes are dragged through the muck.

When the lawyers are done,

the result’s not much fun.

Makes participants moan, “what the heck?”



A registry asked of the Board

To correct problems ignored

To get a domain

Is a source of great pain

But ICANN wouldn’t open its hoard.



ICANN is a travelling circus

It’s staff are happy to jerk us.

They talk free expression

While full of represssion

And no process to create but to work us.

....

A girl from the north came to San Juan,

with no idea of what went on.

She kicked out the bums,

after drinking much rum.

Now no one can say NARALOs a con.



A young ICANN rep for Iraq

Was fed up things were getting off-track.

“Won’t you please go away,”

the Committee would say,

“We just hope something’s there when you get back.”



I once went to ICANN San Juan.

To find out what was going on.

I attended a session,

and have a confession,

ICANN tell dot-pro from dot-con.
