Thursday, June 23

There's a tired old joke which members of the Lions Club delight in re-telling to Rotarians whenever the opportunity arises. It goes something like this:

A middle-aged woman is watching David Attenbrough on TV. She turns to her husband and says, "This program says that lions can have sex up to 10 times a day. Now I know why you joined Rotary."

in response, the president of our Rotary Club has written the following poem.

LIONS Lions, so it is said Are quite the performer when they are in bed
Having it off up to ten times a day With time left over to go hunt for prey.
As humble Rotarians we can’t rise to meet
The awesome challenge of this feline feat. But in spite of their gloating , It may be worth noting Their victorious roaring and post-coital snoring
At the end of the day is really quite boring. Not to mention their breath, not unlike manure
That long suffering partners must daily endure.
And then there are claws, that scar you for life Ooh, Who wouldn’t rather be - a Rotarian’s wife.
