Esteemed Fellow Punsters and Rhymologists!
Cut an editor some slack — whipping up that Venn-diagram was a decent amount of effort, I don’t feel bad about reusing it.
More to the point, after almost two years of being the online Universe’s premium, and possibly only, outlet dedicated to funny poems, I’ve pretty much cycled through all the classic paintings in the public domain that depict jolly medieval court jesters, our publication’s mascot.
Art enthusiasts, coulrophiles — now you know how to make my day.
Highlights since our last editorial check-in:
- Wendy joined our editorial team! And since she makes her home in New Zealand, we now have round-the-world round-the-clock editorial coverage, on three continents and on both hemispheres to boot.
- The conclusion of Bill’s ambitious Glossary of National Animals series, A through G, H through N, O through T and U through Z.
- Our editorial manifesto in listicle form saw the light of day.
- A big welcome to our new contributing writers: Mike Essig (#134), Stacey B (#135), Rumi (#136), Shireen Sinclair (#137), Vic Spandrio (#138), Alex Guenther (#139), Amy Knight (#140), Rose Bryant (#141)!
