Inspired by the anecdote:

A priest and a shepherd from Australia participate in a TV game. After answering all the questions, there is a tie.

So both are given one final assignment. It is to write a poem in three minutes, using the word "Timbuktu".

It is a city in Africa.

The priest returns with the fruit of his inspiration:

"I was a father all my life,

I had no children, had no wife,

I read the bible through and through 

on my way to Timbuktu ... "

The poem makes a great impression, and the priest smells a sweet victory. But then comes the shepherd, with his winning masterpiece:

“When Tim and I to Brisbane went

we met three ladies in a tent

as they were three and we were two

so I booked one and Tim booked two.”
