real thinking

I'd like to point out that all of the limericks posted were in the modern
limerick form, in which the first and fifth lines rhyme, but don't

a reiteration of first and fifth.  Here's an example in the traditional
form to make up for this lack:

Said a wizened old grad with a net,
"Alas, It has not converged yet!"
   The learn rate? why 1,
   Momentum? ummm ... none.
