Hmm...I wonder, can anyone recognize this famous poem?  If so, what is the name, who wrote it, and in what acclaimed literary work did it first appear?
The first person to get it right gets 30 clicks to a module of their choice.  MSRR, I know you know this, so let a few other people try before you jump in  .

    "'First the fish must be caught.'
That is easy; a baby, I think, could have caught it.
     'Next, the fish must be bought.'
That is easy; a penny, I think, would have bought it.

     'Now cook me the fish!'
That is easy, and will not take more than a minute.
     'Let it lie in a dish!'
That is easy, because it already is in it.

     'Bring it here! Let me sup!'
It is easy to set such a dish on the table.
     'Take the dish-cover up!'
Ah, that is so hard that I fear I'm unable!

     For it holds it like glue-
Holds the lid to the dish while it lies in the middle:
     Which is easiest to do,
Un-dish-cover the fish, or dishcover the riddle?

i know that one! lewis carrol! see? poetry class actually does help in the real world!

It does indeed.  That earns you 10 clicks.  If you can remember the name of the poem, that's another 10 clicks, and you can earn another 10 by remembering what book it first appeared in...

So what module do you want your clicks to go to?

its part of thru the looking glass & what alice found there.  


and anywhere's fine.
