Default OT Another groaner

Girl Potato and Boy Potato had eyes for each other, and finally they got
married, and had a little sweet potato, which they called 'Yam.'

Of course, they wanted the best for Yam. When it was time, they told her
about the facts of life. They warned her about going out and getting
half-baked, so she wouldn't get accidentally mashed, and get a bad name for
herself like 'Hot Potato,' and end up with a bunch of Tater Tots.

Yam said not to worry, no Spud would get her into the sack and make a
rotten potato out of her! But on the other hand she wouldn't stay home and
become a Couch Potato either. She would get plenty of exercise so as not to
be skinny like her Shoestring cousins.

When she went off to Europe, Mr. and Mrs. Potato told Yam to watch out for
the hard-boiled guys from Ireland! And the greasy guys from France called
the French Fries. And when she went out west, to watch out for the Indians
so she wouldn't get scalloped.

Yam said she would stay on the straight and narrow and wouldn't associate
with those high class Yukon Golds, or the ones from the other side of the
tracks who advertise their trade on all the trucks that say, 'Frito Lay.'

Mr. and Mrs. Potato sent Yam to Idaho P.U. (that's Potato University) so
that when she graduated she'd really be in the Chips. But in spite of all
they did for her, one-day Yam came home and announced she was going to
marry Tom Brokaw.

Tom Brokaw!

Mr. and Mrs. Potato were very upset. They told Yam she couldn't possibly
marry Tom Brokaw because he's just.......................



Are you ready for this?



Are you sure?............................



OK! Here it is!

"One potato, two potato, three potato, four, five potato, six potato, seven
potato more."

I think it was then just "One-two-three - out goes he/she".
