Joplin's head had to be much bigger considering the amount of hair it held.

Hmmm let me see now... I think if you have a big head you stand a good chance of becoming a success in Hollywood... ☺

Not to mention all the drugs!

Rats Victor, now I will be singing Dueling Banjos all night.

All the fun posts happen after I'm asleep!

Now I hear, on the morning news, that Goofy kept his socks on. What next?

Greensboro, AL

What! Is there something wrong with keeping your socks on? I sleep in my socks. Actually I have fuzzy sleeping socks with little sheep on them. I don't even know Mickey and Goofey or Donald Duck, even!

And I don't think my head is that big either!

Well I am not a pin-head or anything like that.

Fairfield County, CT(Zone 6b)

I sleep with fuzzy socks on, too.

South China, ME(Zone 5a)

Sometimes I do....when DH request I put a pair on!!

Medway, MA(Zone 5b)

I don't have to sleep with socks on - one of my cats sleeps on/beside my feet!

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

I sleep with one sock on.

Calvert City, KY(Zone 7a)

Victor, don't tell me you are old enough to know that old nursery rhyme.

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Does one talk about sleeping with one sock?! Wasn't aware of that.

South China, ME(Zone 5a)

One sock off and on sock on diddle diddle dumpling my son John!

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Don't remember that one.

S of Lake Ontario, NY(Zone 6a)

It's a new one to me too.

South China, ME(Zone 5a)

Diddle, diddle, dumpling, my son John,

Went to bed with his trousers on;

One shoe off, and one shoe on,

Diddle, diddle, dumpling, my son John

Hot dumpling sellers in old London town used to cry out "Diddle Diddle Dumpling'' when selling their wares. The John in this rhyme sounds as though he may have been a bit diddled the night before, and probably not from eating dumplings!

I like your interpretation though, Celeste.

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Hmmm - maybe John was a john??

Calvert City, KY(Zone 7a)

Ha....Pixie you are my kinda gal! I knew someone would remember it, even with the shoe/sock thing. Sorry, Victor and Deb, I guess you had to be there.

Wee Willie Winkie
The origin of the Wee Willie Winkie rhyme

The explanation of the words to Wee Willie Winkie was to teach children to associate every day tasks with their own lives. Before the days of the wireless, television and the Internet great reliance was put upon the Town Crier to pass on the latest news and information. 'Wee Willie Winkie' was the children's version of the Town Crier! The author of the poem was William Miller (1810 - 1872) and the first publication date of the words to Wee Willie Winkie was in 1841.



A Mother Goose Nursery Rhyme

Wee Willie Winkie rhyme poem

Wee Willie Winkie runs through the town,
Upstairs and downstairs in his nightgown,
Tapping at the window and crying through the lock,
Are all the children in their beds, it's past eight o'clock?

the one I always hated was 4 and 20 blackbirds baked in a pie....

"Isn't that a cheerful dish to sit before the King?"
