The line about the publican is a paraphrase from "Tommy", a poem by Rudyard Kipling.

There's an line from one of the ballroom scenes in the muppets.......

So, do you like Kipling?

I don't know, I've never Kippled.

So, How 'bout it Mr. Publican?

He said the drinks are on him - I've got a punch-bowl full of courthouse punch* - who will help me lift it to dump over him?








*For those of you who aren't a sibling of mine, "Courthouse Punch" was a recipe devised by our mom to serve at the party the DAR** threw for the new cizitens every time there was a ceremony at the Worcester, MA City Hall. People liked it so much they convinced her to write out the recipe (always a daunting task), but it basically involved mint, tea, ice, sugar, various fruit juices ... and is yummy.

Karen,

If ye thinkest that we shall drown the Picklesuiter- we at least need the recipe.....

Me thinks it is a family secret anyway!


So shall it be!

LH,
Day glo orange? Nay, I found a can of International Orange.
That is the last trip into the void know as the L&F for a while!

Drink up good sir!

So shall it be!
