I know, I know, too many posts for the day, but I simply can't let mention of the The Lollipop Guild go without response.

I can only presume you mean these guys;

They, too, have a song which at one point runs thusly ...

Oompa Loompas:
Oompa Loompa doompadee doo
I've got another puzzle for you
Oompa Loompa doompadah dee
If you are wise you'll listen to me

What do you get from a glut of TV?
A pain in the neck and an IQ of three
Why don't you try simply reading a book?

There's something in that for all of us, I think. :o

I will only add that, quite apart from the fact that I have prevailed too far upon the good graces of our moderators, I am sick of all this heckling and am going to withdraw.

Which should demonstrate to you that I do, indeed, have a "shed of decency" (curious euphemism) - but if you still don't believe me here's a picture;
