Do you people not realize this is a story about not judging something until you have tried it?!! You are taking an INNOCENT children’s book and perverting it with your own sick thoughts. I’m doing a paper for my college english class, and unfortunately I stumbled upon this website, which proved of absolutly no value. Look at this story in an objective fashion and you might be able to see it for it’s true value ( though I don’t believe your narrow mindness will permit it).

Oh, wrong you are, Kristine.

Ode to My Sister

Silent,
Victimized
Train passenger
(phallic train)
From train to boat you fall
(at the hands of men)
Not the actor in your own drama
But pawn.

Flower in your hair
(symbol of your frailty
subjection
beauty’
(or so they say))

From boat to water
you fall
you fall
pawn.

Do they even notice?
Silent
Unnoted
My sister.

I can’t BELIEVE nobody has yet noticed that there are NO women in this book.

Sheesh.

I have heard tale the the meat of a roasted, smokes chupacabra has a greenish tinge to it; more teal than kelly, yet green all the same. Eating goat will do that to you.

As to it’s comparison to the flavor of ham, suffice it to say there’s already plenty of ham around here.

Perhaps “Ham” really is the Biblically cursed “Ham,” while “green eggs” is really a veiled, pejorative reference to “collared greens.” If so, the book title is a horribly insensitive reference to outdated Mormon racial theologies of cursed lineages, while a simultaneous invocation of Southern White racist culinary stereotypes, and I, for one, am extremely offended.

That’s why there are no more cureloms and cumoms. They were kosher and the Nephites barbequed them into nonexistence. The last curelom was marinaded, slowly roasted whole and eaten by king Noah. Dr. Seuss knew of these beasts but “Green Eggs and Curelom” just doesn’t have the same feel to it.

Cured cureloms and cumin. Say it fifty times as fast as you can.

Steve,

The law of Moses is no laughing matter. I suggest you brush up on your early Nephite culture before making comments around here. It may help somewhat if you review the answers that Zelph gives us.
