Subject: Re: ESL/forks to the right/pudding & pie?
Was the original original "pudding and pie" or "pud 'n pie"? I can't
remember the whole rhyme, but my aging memory tells me that I thought as
a kid the rhyme had a vernacular phonological rendition of "pudding pie."
I suspect that Abercrombie added Fitch to the firm some time ago, so
the me-first principle applies. I'm glad Dennis thought of Haj's
categories. DMLance
