I have a thought for a weekly caption...
If anyone wants to provide a caption for the space underneath theMouthPiece.com logo at the top of the page which currently says... "talking your thought at theMouthPiece.com"... I am happy to receive suggestions...
If I get enough then I'll change it regularly with an indication of who's suggestion it is of course...... over to you guys 'n gals...
An interesting idea..
unfortunately, wen I try to think of captions the best that usually comes out is.. "... emmmmmmm... "
I'm sure all the Blarney induced people here will be more glib than I..
Incidentely, as a corollary to this, hands up who'd like to see a caption contest for some of Rach's pics.. ;) (see thread http://themouthpiece.com/viewtopic.php?p=636)

Now, although I say it myself, that's a pretty damn good caption for the next couple of weeks.
Not a lot of thought went into it admittedly - but it sure is topical.
I will be surprised if anyone comes up with a better one than that!

My Lords, Ladle's and Jellyspoons,
I am very honoured and privilaged to accept this prestigious and magnificent award.
Without the invaluable assistance of my family, my banding colleagues and all my fellow members at themouthpiece.com it would not have been possible for me to submit such an award winning caption.
I would like to thank the caterers (my wife), who has made endless cups of coffee whilst I have been sat here browsing the pages of this splendid new web site and my daughter for being so patient waiting to get on the computer. My commiserations to Keppler for a brave and worthy attempt.
Once again many thanks to all the readers of the TV and Radio Times for voting for me and the adjudicators panel for selecting my caption.
Thank You.
:lol:

A Poem for Ady and Darren.
Over and over I have paid,
For the one mistake in the Little Mermaid,
Too many pages in the Mermaid Song,
I'm not always right, but I'm never wrong.
Over and over I have paid the price,
Before having a go you ought to think twice!
You must not forget that I am MD,
So watch out on Friday, I'll get you - you'll see.

OK then, here's the deal.
Young Elin doesn't like my Verse,
So open up your little purse,
Extract from it, some shiny cash,
And I'll stop writing this awful trash.
If you fail to pay me well,
I won't be happy and I won't be swell,
So now's you chance and here's your cue,
I'll not ask for much, a Tenner will do!
Pay Up or Else!
:lol:
it's lucky for us that we're not averse
to the milifulous rhyming of such dodgy verse
for if we were, it would be such a curse
surely we'd perish, and go off in a hearse
well personally I think we deserve much credit
for achieving something so dire and appalling - it
brings to mind the immortal McGonagall
and you have to admit that is not bad at all !
but having never read the bold McGonagall
I'm unable to form an opinion there-on-igall
However I think that between the two of us
we're possibly a match for Dr. Seuss
do u all have nothing better to do?!
Roger Thorne
09.01.2003, 16:45
Brilliant! . . . Bravo! . . . Awful! :cry:
Thank goodness there's someone else out there who writes poetry as badly as I do
(Oh, and Fishsta of course.)
I love the lines . . . .

We probably have got better things to do if the truth be known. But this is creative! Its like making music - We enjoy it!
It's certainly more stimulating than decorating or sitting in front of the television watching 'Eastenders' or 'Pop Idol'. Why not give it a try - you'll love it.
:wink:
Thank you, Thank you Roger..
Good to know I am appreciated by someone! :)
It takes talent to write stuff as bad as this.
We should put our heads together and come up with something truly awful...
Oh, I look forward to the Bad Poet's Society competition.. :)

I thought we just had!
You mean it could get a lot worse . . . like . . .
Julia and Elin are both very sad,
They think our efforts are really bad,
They reckon we've got now't better to do,
But I know we have, both me and you.
But little do they know that it's gonna get worse,
Cause we ain't finished writing our verse,
It may get bad when the words don't rhyme,
But that will come, no doubt, in time.
But hey, who cares we're having fun,
Beats sitting around on one's big bum,
There's nothing worse than watching telly,
And shoving crisps into your belly.
Get up! and write a line of verse,
So you don't have to open your purse,
Join the talents of me and Keppler,
You'll feel a lot happier and feel a lot better.
Is that bad enough, do you think . . . :cry:
This really has gone downhill,
It's making me feel rather ill.
For the act of the bard
Ain't supposed to be hard
In difficulty, Keppler's was overkill.
If you really want to make life hard,
And sanity you want to discard,
Then rhyme with "Orange"
(And you can't use "door-hinge")
And see if your brain turns to lard!

Fishta has set us a challenge
To find something to rhyme with orange,
It isn't quite right -
I've been thinking all night -
It is certainly hard to arrange.
You could always take a chance
And go for a meal in France;
Then "duck a l'orange"
Could form the melange
And then you could join in the dance.
Or while we're in the mood,
Continuing speaking of food,
Put oats in the porring-
er - that rhymes with orange -
Or am I just going to get booed?
Roger Thorne
10.01.2003, 10:47

Excellent Poem Peter - really, really awful.
On behalf of Fishsta, Keppler and myself please accept our congratulations on becoming the Fourth Member of

i may have earlier been a synic
to mock your dreadful poetry gimic
but now i appreciate the true glory
of your wonderful rhyming stories
mouthpiece posting is so addictive
a respose from roger is always predicted
who am i to call you all sad
when i am becoming just as bad
to find a word that rhymes with orange
is a very difficult challenge
the best i can find, i think is scavenge
but that is cr*p as is lozenge
There once was a brass band forum
No way was it looked at by morons
Got caught in this thread
Might end up quite dead
But I laughed 'til my tum was a sore un :o
Twigglet it's so good to see
you rhyming with Roger and me
For you, I'm to be seen
trying a new rhyming scheme
as a result of one person's plea
I must admit that the grammar
used above is not true
but for grammar, I don't give a damn (er)
You use what's given to you.
As for Fishta's request
we still haven't yet found the best
rhyme for that nasty word 'orange'
I'm afraid all I can think of is 'blancmanche'!
The mouthpiece dot com is the place
Air your brass views at your own pace
Bari players abound
Sops ten for a pound
But Bass players stay in first place :P
or...
the mouthpiece dot com is the place
where I have to hide my own face
I've talked some real sh^t
But that isn't it

I can only agree Keppler .... fantastic... I am glad to see everyone havin a laugh. :D :D :D
Keep it up !!!
or..
the mouthpiece dot com is the place
I wanted to play that nice Bass
Can't do that today
A cornet you say
That'll do, that is nice, that is ace :roll:
or..
the mouthpiece dot com is quite warm
to people that play the small horn
don't slap me it's true
this applies just to you
big boys play the Bass, that's the norm 8)
or..
the mouthpiece dot com is quite new
you know it, I'm talking to you
we at least have a laugh
no, listen, don't barf
the walrus has died, cook-a-chooh
or..
the mouthpiece dot com is a laugh
didn't even get out of the bath
my laptop is there
caught in pubic hair
No wonder I now need to barf!!!!
I think that this is getting a bit silly
Its so cold outside that its a bit chilly,
I'm posting a message on the mouthpiece.com
lets be american and call our mum mom!
I'm posting more often, this makes me glad,
calling Roger Mr. Blobby, must make him mad!
There's so many members, its taking to long
ask us nicely for a YWD thong Visit Us! (http://www.ywdband.com)
Its snowing out side, and thats snow joke (sorry!)
Bet you're all asking, who is this bloke?!
If a fight's what your after,
A fight I'll evoke!
c ya!!!
or..
the mouthpiece dot com is my friend
you're guessing when this sh%te will end
I'll give you a clue
it's not down to you
if I don't stop I'm in the deep end :!:
finally....
Limericks are a form of art
I know you must not give a fart
I've tried my best
but now I must rest
my mum makes a nice apple tart :oops:
I wrote this one a LONG time ago...
The once was a young man called Stu,
Who loved to eat modelling glue,
But he ate some Britfix,
And got in a fix,
So now he sticks to UHU!
The real bugbear is I can't post the best limericks I've heard because there are kids on here. I have to post the lame efforts that arrive in my head :?
Just for the hell of it...
the mouthpiece dot com is just great
my bass just arrived in a case
while cornets are sound
and the euphs are around
playing Bass is a matter of fate :twisted:
Can't stop now, all the fault of the person that started this thread...
While playing brass is a blast
when competing we hate coming last
we all want to win
is that such a sin?
put losing back in the past :o
I hate this compulsion to limerick but..
the mouthpiece dot com is the place
to wipe the smug smile off your face
the talk's about brass
not about your fat ****
if you've got a big gripe state your case :)
aargh, can't stop now....
the mouthpiece dot com makes me laugh
I can't allow this, not by half
I spend my whole life
just avoiding my wife
if she saw me this year she'd just barf :x
and completely finally,
there was a Bass player from Scotland
who lived on an Island near Ireland
he loved limericks
but he knows he's a dick
must give up, will give up, that's for sure and..

The Bad Poet's Society.com
. . . would like to officially welcome 5 new members to this elite group
The Bad Poet's Society.com
Would like to announce that from
Today we invite, 5 more members to write
As badly as they possibly can?
We'll first introduce Satchmo Shaz
She conducts and likes to play jazz
Although what she wrote, was not her own quote
A good sense of humour she hazz
Twigglet was next to submit
And added her own brand of wit
She thought poems were bad, and I was just sad
But now she has added her bit
Rutty came in and swept the floor
With a poem he wrote many years before
It was something to do with modelling glue
It was awful, so give us some more
Bennyboy was to be the next
With a few lines of rhyming text
With his sarcastic wit, I must admit
I'm feeling rather vexed
Frisp was next to have a go
And boy did he put on a show
Every poem he wrote was bad
It really, really is quite sad
He got a bit excited
Submitting his limericks
I think he's found another hobby
Where he can get his kicks
His limericks go on and on
He's really quite resiliant
I know he written loads of them
But they really are quite brilliant
So all you budding poets out there
That have'nt had a go
Now's your chance to show the world
On the Bad Poet Societys' Show
:cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

Ode to Roger
Us aspiring poets who like to write
have been trully inspired by all your s***e
it really is genious i'll hand it to you
but how could live up to it, nobody knew
All we could do was have a go
the worst poetry we could think off we put on show
but although our attempts were quite glorious
Roger Thorne is always victorious!
Roger Thorne
12.01.2003, 15:36
Cheers Twigglet . . . :wink:
For these poems you get a degree,
For sanity go to YWDB (http://ywdband.com),
There are no smart **** posts
There's the nicest of host (not that John isn't ;))
Although I'm sure that most of you'll disagree!
Why not try one of Billy's Frisp?
I'll thank you all for this award,
I'll safely say, that I'll never be bored,
With Roger the lauriét,
giving us a happy day,
I'll go mental, and thats assured!! :D:D

Your poems are really appalling

so kick it in'th head
and get off to bed
and try once again in the morning.
There was a trombonist from bath
who once played in tune for a laugh
but after a while
he adopted a style
that made him sound suitably naff!!

Sorry Rog, one more for the hell of it:-
There was a brass band from an Island
Which had much more high land than low land
They blew off their socks
Pleased the man in the box
Now there's the long trip to Scotland!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Why not try one of Billy's Frisp?
cos I'd get kicked off

sorry, I have riting poems,
and tell us the
man from Nantucket"?? :roll: :roll: :roll:

ODE TO TWIGGY
Your a cornet playing round tree,
and you're gonna get a degree,
you're as pretty as a western australian coral pea,
and you remember explicity the battle of the phillipine sea.
You play for Wem Jubilee,
you're as tall as an American angelica tree,
with your degree,
lets hope you don't become a petty bourgeoisie!!!! (http://www.rhymezone.com/r/d?u=petty_bourgeoisie)
Just to appease all of you wondering:-
"There was a young man from Nantucket
When someone said 'head it' he'd duck it
Never headed the ball
..but gave it his all
He tried really hard but just......
forgive him :lol:
Why not try one of Billy's Frisp?
I might have to....
It would get me kicked off, and I'd never bother anyone again :oops:

Never headed the ball
..but gave it his all
He tried really hard but just......
forgive him :lol:
YOu spent all that time for that ???? :D:D:D:D:D

I'll thank you all for this award,
I'll safely say, that I'll never be bored,
,
I'll go mental, and thats assured!! :D:D
This doesn't rhyme if you're a Geordie!!
Just to appease all of you wondering:-

Thanks for your Ode homocidalbennyboy-I'm touched!
It was trully inspiring, although the tall bit was just wrong!
Keep at the poems everyone- very amusing indeed
P.s that wasn't a poem just a comment, although it could be if you wanted-POEMS DONT HAVE TO RHYME YOU KNOW!

But limericks do!!!
We kinda guessed, we're not THAT dumb,
except maybe roger, exception (#)1,
I thought you might like it, it was funny to write,
Give me more comments, except that it's sh**e!!
I like to think that this is fun,
if not, I think that you are all too glum,
except maybe Roger, exception # 2 (see, even got the non-rhyme in there :P)
So, what is miss Twiggie,
are you short or tall,
I'll never know,
so I'll say ur Shall [pron. shaul!]! :D:D:D
and in true tMP style:
I think this is a really long post,
but read it wisely to make the most,
I'm not a good poet,
and blimmin' hell I know it,
so go home, have a kip or eat TOAST! :D:D

Fair enough, here goes......
My thanks they go to benny boy
His motives i think are quite coy
coz he wants to boast
having written most posts
but an ode to me-what a joy!
:wink:

Ms Twigglet - your limerick was great
But Benny he made me irate
He fell into the trap
His scansion was ****
And his answer I'll have to await!!!...
Southern translation from the northern word : "scansion" please :D

Words don't fit tum-te-tum rhythm of iambic pentameter -oh God I'm at it again - I thought your poem was BRILL, ok?
I found what the word was,
can I have some applause,
I'm a little dumb,
I'll go chew some gum,
and don't argue with me; just because
Iambic pentameter, I hate thee,
you have cause grief upón me
I hate you in english,
and now on the mouthpiesh (appologies!)
and I can even do it now, see!!

Curses- let us shog off young cur, and no more of badinagerie!!!
OK, walking dictionary, what do thos un-needed words mean!!
I looked up shog and it said that Shakespeare used it :
"Will you SHOG off?"

See how I've broadened your horizons with just a few carefully chosen words? - those who can - teach - those who don't get p****d at band contests and wind people up on brass band forums - ffnnnarrr!!!
Oh goodness just look at what's started
Mods will remain quite out-smarted
Limericks remain
This great forum's bane
At least we all are warm-hearted!!
Absolutely the very last!!!!!!
Your last ever lim'rick? don't be absurd,
y'know if you fail you'll get a face full o'turd,
you're a funny old gent,
who don't live in kent,
and I bet with me you'll have a word :D:D:D
Keppler: Duplicate Posting Deleted
I don't think this is adding much to this topic... diverse as it is...
It wasn't duplicate :shock: :shock:
Oh dear Frisp what have you done,
You've started a craze my old chum,
Will it still be
When we're in Dundee
That we will be having such fun?
Oh dear....useless.
Nice one Lynds!
Ben tried very hard to correct things
Cos he just hadn't earned limerick wings
Kepp deleted his post
Hurt young Ben the most
A lesson in life is a good thing!!!!!
Sorry, I know, I know....... :lol:
Hurt me?? :P
I was not hurt how could you think that Frisp?
If you think that then you are a dumb crisp!
Me hurt, no never,
me crying .... I'm clever!! :?
And NO, I don't have a stutter or lisp :P
Absolutely the very last!!!!!![/quote]
You said this one would be your finalé,
it's not the case, you dissapointed mé,
you're not a man of your word,
I'll ne'er trust, your absurd,
well this might be the last one of the day :D :? :? :?

how about a new
form of poetry on here
and it's simple too
haiku from Japan
extolling the virtues of
brass band medium

If you set us off on a new form, there'll be trouble all round.

five syllables in
first line seven in second
five in the last one!
have fun young frispy
while lotus blossom in bloom
and cloud on mountain
(they're usually about nature too)
OK, non-brass band related, but very funny none-the-less:
Windows NT crashed.
I am the Blue Screen of Death.
No one hears your screams.
or
Yesterday it worked.
Today it is not working.
Windows is like that.
or even
Yesterday it worked.
Today it is not working.
Brass Bands are like that.

This topic should be revived
It really should have survived
So get out your pen
Compose once again
The world shall not be denied
Kirsty :D
Oh! The thread's started
again, look enjambement
and I hate english. :roll:
Aha, said he, the best thread of all
has once again popped up just in time.
Now frisp, and Rog must answer the call
to flood the forum with well-dodgy rhyme.
Now please don't knock this old thread of fame
Crying, "It's back again, oh no, how can this be?!!"
Well I'm sorry to say, that it's not me to blame
Keppler is innocent, instead, blame Kirsty
:D

I would like to direct your attention
To my halo, and take time to mention
that Keppler's the one
who showed me for fun
this thread...
*bops him on the head*
I'm stuck with Haiku
they're interesting like trees
blowing in the wind.

Interesting like wild fire

Why, hello Alex, join the gang,
It's about time another southerner rang
Write about what ever you fancy,
Write about your 2nd cousin Nancy!
Although it's more fun if you include tMP
I'll give you that tip, from me, for free.
Happy rhyming, easy once you begin,
The hardest thing, is ending: la fin. :D

Isn't this just the thing?
My telephone will never ring
I think it's me, or could it be
I'm always on the internet looking at tMP!!!
I'm trying diffrent rhyming schemes,
I don't know which I like th best
I know my poetry's not supreme
But it is my sanctuary... I need a rest.
I'm on a verse writing role,
I just can't stop I'm on a roll,
I need more time, my eyes are dead,
It's OK.... so's the rest of my head! :D

Thats so very true,
Mine never rings too!
tMP is such a damn good site,
and oh as valentines day nears,
It'll be me and just a few beers,
Lonely all through the night!

Isn't it droll
How we like to post
One two three
Can we see
Who can post the most...
Exciting rhyme
We find the time
So let's all drink a toast
Poor ol' Cornet King, gee, what a shame!
He'll be on his own for valentine's,
The hubbub that'll surround his name
I'm sure you'll find love before your heart pines! ;)

There aint no hurry,
Being single aint no crime!

Peter Pun should be the one to spoil your versing fun -
He'll find a rhyme 'most every time
To make you moan and groan.
A pun will do the job just right - it may not but it might -
A word or two will have to do,
From me for t M P.
Limerick's true art
Tho' hailku fills the blank page
Slowly, smoothly,well :P :P :P
Someone should re-start a limerick thread, haiku's not enough fun!
But if you read it in a ridiculously dodgy chinese accent's it's funny.
With Chinese Accent
make page sound far more funny
Hey! Hong-Kong Phewy! :D
Without wishing to patronise or **** you off Ben I think that is your first funny post :oops:
Did we all miss your 18th???
That was a compliment BTW (and I'm not trying to offend anyone) :shock:
I'm honoured Frisp! :oops:

We all love Brass Bands
So let's clap our hands
Where we meet our friends
And hope no one spends
The whole time in fear
That the end is near
For next time we meet
Our MD will beat
And we shall play on
For ever anon...
