A bit of levity...

Laugh it up, fuzzball.

My wife and her family introduced me what apparently originated as a radio announcers test; the "One hen, two ducks, three squawking geese, four limericking oysters..." etc etc etc...

On a local list I'm on, a fellow has posted a version he remembers from some late night convention chitchatting. I thought it was enough of a hoot to post. He can't remember the originators, but it came together 'somewhere in the late 80's or early 90's'...
