Doug Barton b564d8acf1 * Add $FreeBSD$ to limerick and zippy
* Delete trailing white space in all its forms. In addition to being
bad style in general, it also causes formatting, and other problems
for various third party items (like xscreensaver) which use fortunes
for their own purposes.

A limerick of classic proportion
should have meter and rhyme and a portion
of humor quite lewd,
and a frightfully crude,
impossible sexual contortion.

A limerick is best when it's lewd,
gross, titillating and crude --
but this one is clean,
unless you are seen
reading it aloud in the nude.

I wanted to print here a medley
of limericks so gross they were deadly,
but when the typesetter tried
to set them, he died;
(not to mention my editor, Smedly.)

I have written some limericks quite fateful,
malicious and vicious and hateful;
but I've torn up the jokes
that will sicken most folks,
and humanity ought to be grateful.
