Back by popular demand.... the ICANN Limerick treasures of Andy & Annie McNonymous: An international dude Was in a rather foul mood He asked for domains You gave him plantains He could only eat multi-byte food There once was a girl from Nantuck, Who wanted to sponsor dot-fuck. “No, No!” said the GAC(k), “You must take a step back. Consensus is not bottom up.” Civil action groups rarely have luck When their causes are dragged through the muck. When the lawyers are done, the result’s not much fun. Makes participants moan, “what the heck?” A registry asked of the Board To correct problems ignored To get a domain Is a source of great pain But ICANN wouldn’t open its hoard. ICANN is a travelling circus It’s staff are happy to jerk us. They talk free expression While full of represssion And no process to create but to work us. .... A girl from the north came to San Juan, with no idea of what went on. She kicked out the bums, after drinking much rum. Now no one can say NARALOs a con. A young ICANN rep for Iraq Was fed up things were getting off-track. “Won’t you please go away,” the Committee would say, “We just hope something’s there when you get back.” I once went to ICANN San Juan. To find out what was going on. I attended a session, and have a confession, ICANN tell dot-pro from dot-con. On Jul 2, 2007, at 9:08 AM, Annette Muehlberg wrote:
Hi Evan,
it was great getting to know you in San Juan. Robin Gross asked about the limericks you guys made.
why not send them out on the at-large list?
would be great to put that on our website too. running our - independent- ALAC website is a real issue - which we did not solve after Jean had to leave (and there are some stories to tell why that is the case...). are you in touch with her?
best annette
