    Subject: Special Poetry--This is funny



    The Washington Post runs a weekly contest in its Style section called the
    'Style Invitational'.

    The requirements this week were to use the two words 'Lewinsky' (the
    Intern) and 'Kaczynski' (the Unabomber) in the same limerick.

    Now, remember, the following winning entries were actually printed verbatim
    in the newspaper, no bleeps or xxxs:

    Third place:

    There once was a girl named Lewinsky
    Who played on a flute like Stravinsky
    'Twas 'Hail to the Chief'
    On this flute made of beef
    That stole the front page from Kaczynski.

    Second place:

    Said Clinton to young Ms. Lewinsky,
    We don't want to leave clues like Kaczynski,
    Since you made such a mess,
    Use the hem of your dress
    And please wipe that stuff off your chinsky.


    And the winning entry:

    Lewinsky and Clinton have shown
    What Kaczynski must surely have known,
    That an intern is better
    Than a bomb in a letter,
    When deciding how best to be blown
