17 of 31: A Limerick in Honor of St. Paddy's Day

A Limerick in honor of moving an 840 pound safe on St. Paddy's Day

There were four strapping lads moving a giant safe;
At 840 pounds, it would never be confused with a waif.
It was dropped on its side
With girth really wide,
Yet they moved it without any skin chafe!

*Actually, my brother-in-law almost lost a finger, but thanks to the luck of the Irish, he walked away with full functionality in all digits!

  1. Oh my! Been there! When my husband and four friends moved our safe upstairs, it almost went through the wall! Luckily, the wall only needed a little patch job!

  2. This kind of reminds me of the episode of Friends when they tried to move Ross's couch- PIVET. Glad no one sustained any injuries!
