Jim,
If I plagiarized colosseros, it must have been unconscierous.
(If it makes any difference, I used it as an adjective and you used it as a noun.)

Bras-R-Us!!! :D If that doesn't win, I'll cancel my subscription. (if I had one, that is).

OK, this is my last one!

Poet's Guide to Hard-to-Rhyme Names of Large Animals

Whenever you see a rhinoceros
is a word you can’t rhyme, stick with 'rhino'.
As for finding a rhyme for diplodocus,
you might want to substitute 'dino'.

Thanks, Marion, but I couldn't manage to use the required line "Whenever you see a rhinoceros," so I don't think this is eligible.

Noun or adjective Marion the original coinage is mine, I suppose I should be flattered that it so unconscierosly registered with you.

Maybe you could sell it to Playtex.

Hey, Bob
How's this?

When ever you see a rhinoceros
in search of a bra, tell her: "Seek it
in the rhino department of Bras-R-Us,
and not at Victoria's Secret."

I like it, Marion! Want to enter that as partners?

Sure! Should we use a pseudonym?

Marion Slater?
Roger Shore?
Marion Rogers?
Roger Marion?
Bill Greenwell?

Jim Hayes?

R. U. Shore
I. M. Shore
C. Shore

Though perhaps we should form a holding company, something like "Shore and Schechter Artistic Enterprises Extraordinaire, Ltd." We could incorporate in the Cayman Islands to avoid income tax on the prize money. Maybe we should call it, "Schechter and Shore, Off Shore, Ltd." We could then hire Jim to write all our future entries, though I'm afraid we might have to pay him a 15% commission just to keep him incentivized.

Go ahead and submit it under any name you choose.
