Omnificent

recieved an email from Chris Strolin from OEDILF which has left the Wordcraft site and and set up as oedilf.com. Chris points out that;

Due to a legal wrangle from the Oxford University Press legal department, "OEDILF" now stands for "Omnificent English Dictionary In Limerick Form." Our goal is now to create a limerick for each and every word in the English language and not just those covered by the OED.

OEDILF is still working throught the letter 'a', following is a limerick by Chris Strolin which might be apt for our athletics team

It's true other runners won't thwart us
Though our speed might suggest rigor mortis,
If our progress is steady
For success we'll be ready -
A lesson which Aesop once tortoise.
