I feel the need to say that I have no idea what GUEST,.gargoyle was trying to say on 02 Jun 08 - 12:07 AM. Perhaps gargoyle didn't know what he was trying to say in that post either.

For what ever reason, that post was not deleted, so I suppose it remains a matter of record, a testimony to gargoyle's state of mind and state of being at the time that post was written.

Hopefully, gargoyle has taken his meds since that posting.

I want to take this opportunity to say "Thank you!" to all those persons {Mudcat members and Mudcat guests} who have posted examples of children's rhymes and information about children's rhymes on this thread and also on various other Mudcat threads about children's rhymes that I have started including I'm Rubber, Your Glue; Kids Chant Stella Ola Ola / Stella Ella Ola ; Bazooka Bubble Gum ; Water Wallflower & Brickwall Waterfall .

Since I started posting to Mudcat in August 2004, I have learned a lot from other member and guests posters about possible sources of children's rhymes and other songs, and possible meanings of words & phrases in children's rhymes {and other songs}. As a result of being active on Mudcat, I became acquainted with different versions of children's rhymes and other songs from folks living throughout the USA and also folks living in Great Britain, Canada, Australia and elsewhere. In my opinion, such information shared is Mudcat at its finest.

For that I sincerely thank you all.
