The Rhyming Cutlets of Pirip

We cannot blame Charles Dickens for not meeting our national Arts treasure Philip P. Pirip, but:go blame yr rottern Fate;whos flushs beat yr faces straightsIt could be said, though, Dickens did lend his major characters to Philip P.

Wi

by Bill Reed ...

Surely you all remember Wi, a name especially chosen to fit our attention spans? Him, the world-record kidnappee, nabbee, swipee, snatchee, hoisted so many times even he's lost count?
