Dr. Seuss hailed from our own Springfield, Massachusetts, and it's his birthday, so there have been a number of articles in the papers about his career and his books. Most of his books were quite popular, and those are the ones they talk about because hey, nobody wants to talk about failure, eh? But there were some Dr. Seuss books that didn't sell very well, and so I wanted to take a moment to share a few of those titles from my own collection of-
"Dr. Seuss Books That Never Made It"
Horton Hires a Ho.
Who Shat on Pat?
Son of Sam I am.
The Cat in the Blender.
The Fox in Socks and the Garter Belt.

A follow-up to th Methamphetamine Book:
Horton Hides th Who Hash
Joey- after last night's Bat episode, of which there were installments 2,3 and 4 today (none of them entertaining or even remotely nice) this is the first belly laugh I've had today.
Many thanks, sir!!
Pass the Who Hash, please.
From The Cat's Limerick Book:
The Cat in the Hat, so they say
Was quite fond of a roll in the hay
He was caught in the act
With a whore who was stacked
And the photographs prove he's not gay
:-)
Reverend- I'd say that about says it all!
