... or, I have found it! Since I first happened across this in high school, I have been looking again for a copy of it. It is quite an entertaining tongue twister called, Mister Fister's Tongue Twister |
Mr. Fister's sister, Sue, enjoys tongue twisters. She should! Sue sells seashells. The store Sue sells seashells in is near the seashore. It's simply called Sue's Seashore Sea Shell Store.
Naturally, Sue searches the seashore for the seashells she sells. Some say Sue's silly for selling seashells in a seashore store. But Sue's smart. She smiles. Sometimes, Mr. Fister helps his sister, Sue, search for seashells on the seashore. He enjoys tongue twisters, too. But he doesn't sell seashells. He sells silk sheets. The store he sells silk sheets in is near Sue's Seashore Sea Shell Store -- it's called Mr. Fister's Seashore Silk Sheets Store. One day, Mr. Fister told his sister Sue, "I sold six silk sheets to six sheiks who came into my Seashore Silk Sheets Store!" Mr. Fister's sister Sue shrieked, "Those must be the same six sheiks I sold sixty seashells!" "Shucks," said Mr. Fister, "the same six sheiks must have visited your Seashore Sea Shell Store after buying six silk sheets in my store." "Yesh," smiled Sue. Mr. Fister chuckled, "Selling six silk sheets to the same six sheiks who bought sixty seashells seems to have twisted your tongue, my dear sister, Sue!" And that was Mr. Fister's tongue twister. |

Wasn't it Jim Henson who said, "Without faith, I am nothing," after all? No, wait, that was God... Sorry, common mistake to make... |
