"I hope you guys remember the little boy on Wonderama, around 1965, who insisted that an octopus had eight testicles."Speaking of seafood, I always thought "scrod" sounded a little obscene.

"At the age of fourteen a Zoroastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved my testicles. There really is nothing like a shorn scrotum... it's breathtaking- I highly suggest you try it."

Art Linkletter's Kids Say the Darnedest Things had a little girl wishing to be an octopus so she could hug everyone with her testicles.

Speaking of seafood, I always thought "scrod" sounded a little obscene.I was up in Boston one time and asked a cabbie if he knew a good place to get scrod. He said, "I've heard that question a thousand times, but never in the pluperfect subjunctive tense."

There once was an agile factotum
Who climbed up his family totem...
It appeared that his goal

"There once was an agile factotum..."That reminds me of a friend of mine from Nantucket.

Wrong group of people. School librarians and public librarians have little in common.

Nor does it often appear in poetry given the difficulty of finding a rhyme. He aimed his rifle and he got 'em;
Shot 'em both right through the scrotum.
