Entertainment of the Week..^_^

The National Poetry Contest had come down to two semifinalists, a Yale graduate and a redneck from Alabama. They were given a word, then allowed two minutes to study the word and come up with a poem that contained the word. The word they were given was "Timbuktu." (即一個遙遠的地方 or in the middle of nowhere)

First to recite his poem was the Yale graduate. He stepped to the microphone and said:

Slowly across the desert sands,
Trekked a lonely caravan Men on camels,
two by two,
Destination Timbuktu.

The crowd went crazy. No way could the Alabama redneck top that, they thought. The Alabama redneck calmly made his way to the microphone and recited:
Me and Tim a huntin,
we went Met three hookers in a pop up tent,
They were three, and we were two,
So I bucked one, and Timbuktu.

The Alabama redneck won hands down!...haha...
