    They missed the last Verse
    This wonderful dog
    Was Dame Hubbard’s delight,
    He could read, he could dance,
    He could sing, he could write;
    She gave him rich dainties
    Whenever he fed,
    And erected this monument
    When he was dead.

    "She went to the zoo to buy kangaroos...
    Karl said, 'That reminds me... time for Monkey News!'"

      Steve's Mum said when its Christmas she'd like a new hat,
      But his Dad got her a necklace saying "Look at the gleam on that!"
      Karl messed up Rockbusters forgetting all his lines,
      But Ricky burst out laughing saying "Different every time!"

    where is Karl to discuss such oddities? I guess his take would be that he's not surprised that the dog did all that stuff. He probably used to have a mate that had a dog that would smoke pipes.

      The discussion was "gettin too heavy" so he didn't want to get involved. Things got even more controversial when they dissected Mary Mary Quite Contrary. They really pushed the envelope back then

    There's no evidence in the nursery rhyme that she was actually a mother. A woman with a dog isn't a mother is she. I'm beginning to think it's only partially based on fact.
