Mom lied to me...rode in the rain

[Bonniele]

:sour: She said, "Boys are made of snakes and snails and puppy dog tails" and girls are made of "sugar and spice and everything nice." Well, Frank and I just rode 150 miles in the pouring rain last weekend and I did NOT melt. I am so disappointed!!!! So much for the sugar part. And, we haven't left Northern CA for Spyder Fest yet...:banghead:

I thought it was "snails and nails and puppy dog tails" but Hey, I still say the "Sugar and spice" part is still right!!!!

There are several versions of this, and everybody seems to know it differently, depending on what the way their mothers told it. Just for the record, the earliest written record of it, appearing in a maunuscript by English poet Robert Southey is:

What are little boys made of made of?

What are little boys made of?
Snips & snails & puppy dogs tails
And such are little boys made of.

What are young women made of?
Sugar & spice & all things nice.[SUP][/SUP]

I used to say when we were camping and canoeing in the wilderness, that rain builds character.

I guess that's why I am such a character. :roflblack:
