2740. Discard iff you don't like
Henry Winkler got rich playing Fonzi Then went broke from a scheme known as "Ponzi" As the wind left his sails You could hear his loud wales* All the way from L.A. clear to Swansea.
* for the pun
Never had I heard of Swansea (Wales or Illinois) until I looked it up, clued in by "Card iff" from your title. I confess to a "D'oh!" moment when I realized I had missed the L4 "wails" pun in your original version (before, regrettably, you chose to "dumb it down" for us peons). You have, however, inspired a challenge of a place name on which to limericize. Try Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch. My research also identified the apparent source of the kindergarten song: . We're all in our places . With bright, shining faces. . Glamorgan to you...
