Nå synes jeg du oppfører deg som en eklatant snottabajas som fortjener å kjølhales. Btw, Rob and Dennis, very nice and funny verses!

Dean is just champing at the bit waiting for Wallace to explain this one.

I hadn’t read yours when I made mine. I suppose you mean Hammill, but I must confess that I don’t understand the part about the metalprogger and the bird-dogging … (I don’t know Hammill’s biography very well; I’m more interested in the music and the lyrics).

You dont know the meaning of to bird-dog another man's salty?? |
No, I don’t. To bird-dog is to observe or follow closely. "Salty" may mean a number of things, but I’ve found no noun, not even on Urban Dictionary. Remember that we’re a few people here who don’t have (North American) English as our first language. And who’s the metalprogger? Nic Potter? Keith Ellis? And I don’t know the story, thus it doesn’t make much sense to me. If you tried to explain, maybe you could make me laugh, or at least understand what your limerick is about.

Jon from a faraway planet
flew a spaceship and knew how to man it:
His trustworthy crew
was a Russian Khatru,
but none of them knew how to land it.

Seems PH limericks have become fashionable so here's another 
"I once wrote some poems" said Hammill "That were dark and too dreary for Camel" I asked Guy and Hugh If they thought they would do And they said "You're one sick twisted mammal!"
...and one about my favourite drummer...
A restless young drummer named Bill Partnered with Squire until The Fish drove him mad So he left the Yes man Wetton made him happier still!

A fellow called Hammill from Ealing
made songs with a desperate feeling.
He spiced up his voice
with an aeroplane noise
that the boys in the band found appealing.

There once was a music called prog That critics would endlessly flog It proved they were daft So the rest of us laughed And flushed their reviews down the bog!

Repercussions resounded still
From Gabriel's horn atop Solsbury Hill
And when the auditions all failed
The band found the trick of the tail
Was that Genesis already had their Phil

There were two boys from Willowdale Craving to see girls from a stage But then a drummer they found with lyrics so profound That instead they saw boys oh so pale!

If yer a true fan
Of all things be prog
Then up on yer feet for this cry;
For only we know
That our Jethro Tull
Is both a band and a guy
