    The Washington Post runs a weekly contest in its Style section called the 'Style Invitational'. The requirements this week were to use the two words 'Lewinsky' (the Intern) and 'Kaczynski' (the Unabomber) in the same limerick.

    The winning entries (below) were actually printed verbatim in the newspaper, without bleeps or alterations.

    Third place:

    There once was a girl named Lewinsky
    Who played on a flute like Stravinsky
    Twas 'Hail to the Chief'
    On this flute made of beef
    That stole the front page from Kaczynski.

    Second place:

    Said Clinton to young Ms. Lewinsky,
    We don't want to leave clues like Kaczynski,

    Since you made such a mess,
    Use the hem of your dress
    And please wipe that stuff off your chin-ski.

    And the winning entry:

    Lewinsky and Clinton have shown
    What Kaczynski must surely have known,
    That an intern is better
    Than a bomb in a letter,
    When deciding how best to be blown.
