A scientist known as Bill Nye,

Always wore a distinctive bow tie.

With facts that are cool,

He proved "Science Rules!"

And encouraged the world to ask "Why?"

There once was a fellow called Hooke

I once read about in a book

He pulled on a spring

and noticed the thing

grew longer, if one takes a look.

Now my favorite nerdy scientist:

A physicist expert, Kaku,
Said, "Parallel worlds might be true."
With theories of strings,
And the future of things,
He broadens our cosmic view.

Bill Nye is clever, one scientist of many,

Kaku is too, he's probably made quite a penny,

Parallel worlds, strings you say,

Hopefully science will learn it one day,

Science is awesome, it made you & me,

Maybe one day, it might answer the BB,

What happened to start with, what happening now,

I tilt my hat, you all get a bow.

By all reports Nye still sports bow ties,

Even during a marriage not wise

Like a raging Godzilla

Blair dowsed his garden with weed killah

And hacked his emails with unflattering lies.

Mr. Tyson, named Neil, with broad interests,

Who sports fabulous, galactic vests,

Made space stuff cool,

Though math still rules,

And inspires our cosmic quests,

Who can finish the poem below?

Sir Newton, a scientist, though only by chance,

Viewed stars and planets, in their cosmic dance...

Yet under a tree an apple did fall,

A genius left to wonder & mull.

Mulled cider?

Interesting play on words/idea. @geordief

If anyone found my newton reply cheesy, would that make it a mulled whine?. (wine)

Two priests in a bar

Two priests in a bar looking so sad,

One asks the bartender how much is his tab,

£5M pounds, you've run a large bill,

Might buy a safe that won't fit in a till,

Priest no.1 asks the other for money,

Priest no.2 says no! don't be funny,

The sum is too vast, way way way too fantastical,

He shouldn't charge priests, it's not ecclesiatical.
