I know, I know - said she dancing around the keyboard. I don't like the new version. I am very fond of the cartoon original!!! He wrote it under his medical nom de plume, don'tcha know. Hint, hint.

Merry Christmas right back at you, TM. I have some lovely music coming out of CBC Radio 1.

Late to the game Merry Christmas everyone, we were over at DD's for brunch, just got home. Me thinks there might be a grinch involved.

HOHOHO! Wish I was in the know.
The hints indicate The Grinch who Stole , but I really do not know
Merry Christmas everyone!

I can't stump you guys this weekend. It was indeed How the Grinch Stole Christmas by Dr. Seuss, Ted Geisel being Dr. Seuss' real name.

Did you know that he didn't pronounce his pen name the way we all say?

You're wrong as the deuce
And you shouldn't rejoice
If you're calling him Seuss.
He pronounces it Soice.

Oh darn. I didn't think you would be playing trivia yesterday! The Grinch is one of my all-time favorites, too. Hope everyone had a lovely day yesterday. Off to check to see if there is a question for today!

My understanding is that later he did pronouce his name Soose to rhyme with goose.

Bobbie, after I read your post I looked around and found an article in The New Yorker that agreed with you. Interesting. Thanks for adding that.
