The one-l lama, he's a priest.
The two-l llama, he's a beast.
But I will bet a pink pajama
There isn't any three-l lllama! *"
In my book it was a footnote:
" *The author's attention has been called to an urban conflagration known as a three alarmer. Pooh."
[and he didn't mean Winnie, either]

btw, I tried googling to check out your quotation, but found myself extremely distracted by some of the items produed by searching "pink pajama".

Nope, Nash's doggerel used silk instead of pink.

Yes, TEd -- but so much more can be discovered (shall I say uncovered?) by googling the pink version. [grin -e]

I'm bringing this old thread back up because I'm wondering whether anybody has learned any new mnemonics during the year.
I have. In a wetlands workshop I learned how to tell sedges from grasses when out in the wilds:
"Sedges have edges and grasses have asses"
(that's because grasses have a hole up the middle)
So, if you've learned a thing or two this year and have a way of remembering it/them, please enlighten us.
If nobody's learned anything, this old thread will turn into a dead thread.
