A Kitten Was Launched to the Moon

In light of today being the 40th anniversary, an article with horoscope image is posted on the First Moon Landing of July 20, 1969, if you're up for it.

Get it? 'Up' for it. My cats like that because they're always up for it except during their very serious snoozes. Well, the above-linked post is quite serious and asks the question of both its readers: did the US really land on the Moon?

Meanwhile, since you're here at Lim's Limericks, perhaps you're in the mood for a groanworthy rhyme which Lim wrote a while ago after seeing what I was up to with the post on the Astrology of the First Moon Landing...


A kitten was launched to the Moon
to search for a cow and a spoon
but when he arrived
no cow or spoon thrived
but only a Baggie's lost tune.

(It is assumed that Lim refurrs to the Baggie with the red label that Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin left behind upon the Moon's surface...I'm not sayin' which one left it, but - lunar litterbugs! Makes me want a sandwich. jc)

The Moon Society may be a website of interest for all Moon-gazers.

will A Latino Kitten be confirmed?

You know it! The elusive Mr. A. Cat phoned Lim a while ago asking that I type the following verse on to their highnesses' blog while the Sonia Sotomayor confirmation hearing is going on, so here goes. And hopefully it won't offend, for I think Mr. A. is secretly proud of her being nominated for SCOTUS!

Besides...who has time to argue with a cat?


A Latino Kitten is judging
to Capitol Hill she is trudging
confirmed in degrees
by Rs vs Ds
her spot on The Bench they're begrudging.
