All the entries are correct and I used =sum(b2+c3) Column 3 was the deposit, column 2 was the running total.


The problem may be the use of the sum function. Normally, it would reference a range, not a formula. Try using just the formula =b2+c3.

My favorite; wish I'd written it:

The bustardā€™s an exquisite fowl,
With minimal reason to growl:
He escapes what would be
Illegitimacy
By grace of a fortunate vowel.

As a very young lad, I traveled many of the old highways and by-ways of the USA with my folks.
I became acquainted with a slight variation of these limericks.
Most were obtained on the walls of truck stop restrooms and the like.
Still, they were excellent works of poetry showing insight to a different view of everyday life.

Many probably most inappropriate to print here.
A number of authors have made it a point to preserve much of this in a few books for all times sake.
One is available on Amazon. For example:

There was a young man from Grants Pass,
Whose balls were made out of brass.
When they tinkled together,
They played ā€œStormy Weather,ā€
and lightning shot out from his A$$.

A few years ago I saw a guy wearing a 'T' shirt that stated,

"I am the Man from Nantucket !!"
As a very young lad, I traveled many of the old hi... (show quote)


Along the same line:

There once was a young lady from Norway
Who hung by her heels in the doorway
She said, ā€œGet off the divan as quick as you can,
I think Iā€™ve discovered one more way.ā€

[quote=DirtFarmer]My favorite limerick comes from the great Renaissance poet, Ogden Nash, who has mastered the English language by force and violence. You cannot get the full value of this limerick by hearing it spoken. You must read it for yourself. It is one of the few limericks I have come across that require visual input to get the full quality across.

There once was a girl from Connecticut
Who flagged down a train with her Pecticut
Which her elders defined
As great presence of mind
But deplorable absence of Ecticut.

Love them. A variation on the last one follows:

Mary bought an aeroplane
Among the clouds to frisk
Now wasnā€™t she a plucky girl
Her little *



This limerick's too clever, I fear
And refers to itself (as you'll hear)
With words twenty nine
I've checked 'em, it's fine
But it means the last word isn't


There once was a man from Nantucket
Who kept all his cash in a bucket.
But his daughter, named Nan,
Ran away with a man
And as for the bucket, Nantucket

But he followed the pair to Pawtucket,
The man and the girl with the bucket;
And he said to the man,
He was welcome to Nan,
But as for the bucket, Pawtucket

Then the pair followed Pa to Manhasset,
Where he still held the cash as an asset,
But Nan and the man
Stole the money and ran,
And as for the bucket, Manhasset

Of this story we hear from Nantucket,
About the mysterious loss of a bucket,
We are sorry for Nan,
As well as the man ā€“
The cash and the bucket, Pawtucket



An amoeba, named Max, and his brother
Were sharing a drink with each other;
In the midst of their quaffing,
They split themselves laughing,
And each of them now is a mother.

A preoccupied vegan named Hugh
picked up the wrong sandwich to chew.
He took a big bite
before spitting, in fright,
"OMG, WTF, BBQ!"

There once was a man from the sticks
Who wanted to write Limericks
But he failed at the sport
'cause he wrote them too short

There once was a man from Lahore
Whose Limericks ran to line four
He'd start up the trend
And then it would end.


There once was a woman from Bree
Whose Limericks ran to line three
And never went further


There once was a kid from York (New)
Whose Limericks went to line two


There once was a man from Verdun


A pretty young maiden from France
Decided she'd "just take a chance".
She let herself go
For an hour or so,
And now all her sisters are aunts.

There was a young lady named Hall,
Wore a newspaper dress to a ball.
The dress caught fire,
And burned her entire
Front page, sports section, and all

A bather whose clothing was strewed
By breezes that left her quite nude,
Saw a man come along
And, unless I am wrong,
You expect this last line to be lewd!

There once was a man
From peru, whose limericks
Were really haiku

[Not quite a limerick, but worthy of inclusion here}
Suzie Smith put on her skates
Upon the ice to frisk.
Her friends thought she was slightly nuts,
Her little *[/quote]

I am a Nikon shooter and was excited to put the Tamron z 150-500mm lens on my z50. I was ready to do more wildlife and birds in flight photography until I spent some time with this beautiful beastā€¦.it is too darn heavy for me to hold still and I am not inclined to lug a tripod around when I get the urge to shoot some wildlife when I am close to nature. At 75 I admit I am not as strong as Iā€™d like and holding that lens isnā€™t getting easier.

So I am returning it to Adorama today and exchanging it for the Sony cyber shot RX10 IV. I guess a bridge camera isnā€™t so badā€¦.(right?)ā€¦..and it sure will make my sometimes forays into nature a little easier. I just hope I donā€™t have pangs of regret and envy when I encounter folks with those big, beautiful telephoto lens in the field.šŸ„¹

Iā€™ve been using the RX10 IV for more than four years. I love it. I donā€™t think you will regret your decision.

Google Audubon Everglades to find the website for the Audubon Society chapter centered on Palm Beach County. Click on Birds in the top menu and then PBC birding sites. Two of the best are Wakodahatchee Wetlands and Green Cay Wetlands. Consider joining; they have guided walks and informational programs.
