Yes, miss nonaddict,this is for real :) Allright all you homeless ladies. here's your one and only chance to get some decent housing and stay away from the streets.

Of course you'll be expected to display certain eh...qualities before this shiny piece of real estate will be given to you. The reward will be a $150,000 hard solid Sleuth currency handed over by yours truly. This should be enough to cover for a one room studio in the city of your choice and some of the furniture that comes along with it. Sure beats the hell of playing "jeopardy" :-)

Now, all you have to do is post a poem in this thread titled "Oh villain where art thou?" The poem has tobe at least 12 lines and each two lines will have to rhyme. If you need an example just have a look at the poem Of Wolf and Lamb. There will have to be at least THREE entrants in order to have a contest. Entrants can be posted as from NOW and at over a week's time the contest will be closed. Meaning at January 23 at midnight just before January 24.

The winner will be handed over the money after you quickly join The Firm. The Jury will consist of me, Sleuth Sindy and Solve A Lot2. The result of the contest will be published in this thread and the winer will be notified by PM. No more questions? Good. Waiting for all these poetic pearls :-)

Oh, and one more thing. It would feel a bit awkward if guys woudl participate in this.....no offense meant but I trust you know what I mean ;)

Oh villain where art thou?
Thou must be hiding in and out
of streets and alleys.

Where can thou be?
In London, New York, or Delhi?
Perhaps in Shanghai, i see.

Could you be in Cairo or Shangri-La?
I will find you regardless, ha ha.
No matter how far,
I will find you wherever you are.

Oh villain where art thou?
I will find you inside or out.

Bump

This is a legitimate contest. I'm sure there are more Sleuthettes with talent out there somewhere . . .

Jan-17-2007 16:01

hmm... is there someone else brave enough to do this?

Jan-17-2007 16:46

Who can compete with that?

I'll just keep saving :)

Jan-17-2007 16:49

are you saying i'm good at something besides helping hijack?

Jan-18-2007 11:37

Oh Villan where art thou?

I looked up and down
Left, right and all around

Are you near or far?
Must I travel by car?

Will you hold still?
HELP me if you will?

Shady isn't fun to pay
Don't let me false accuse today

I'll look high and low
There's nowhere you can go.

Hold still please,
While I kick you in the knees.

Villan, here ends your time,
Now it's time to end this rhyme.



Ta DA! The poetic stylings of Sara "Da Bomb" Lou. LMAO

Oh Villian Where Art Thou?

Oh Villian where art thou?
To find you, my vow.

Are you in Delhi alone on the prowl?
I'll follow your stench, no matter how foul!

Or does London's finest meals keep you fit?
I'll find you, you know, I'm not a halfwit!

As long as my eyes I keep trained on your trail,
Instead of escaping to some fairytale!

Its those little ventures that may keep you free!
Attention to detail is always the key!

Does the Big Apple conceal you from sight?
The Butcher? The Barber? Now this is my plight.

Shanghi's the hardest to navigate well.
The names in that city can all go to ....!

Hmmmmmmm......

Oh Villian where art thou?
To find you, my vow!
