How many Peter peppers might Peter Piper pick, she ponders?
As long as he doesn't wipe his eyes or otherwise contaminate other mucous membranes with the oils from the peppers. I know from experience. ĦAy, Chihuahua!

Hi of and wof:

Here's an Aussie variation on the first line only:

Ink, pink, pen and ink,
I smell a great big stink
And it comes from Y O U.

(first recorded in Adelaide 1935 -- from "Cinderella dressed in yella")

Dear Paul, the way you addressed the above post struck me so strongly that I had go up and search, to figure out who you were referring to. The words "of and wof" just look to me as though they have to be pronounced
off 'n woff. Oh, the strange paths our minds lead us down (well, mine, anyway, right, Plutarch?).
