Ah! Gotcha! Kinda like "ring around the rosies"? Oh, wait, that was about the plague I think.
Yep ring o roses was about the black plague in England.
Carried by fleas on rats if I recall. Ewwwww! Amazing how many childrens rhymes are based on gross stuff.

The worms play pinocle on your snout

OOpsie! Well, don't blame me! I read it in a social studies book in grade 7, and that was a very, very long time ago! *grins* Thanks for the correction Buffy.
Yay Buffy!
I was raised to believe the story of the plague origin and it was even taught in school.
Thank you for the insight.
LOL! We better be careful with all these young'uns around FB! I guess kids are actually LEARNING in school these days!
LOL Ashke,
