Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall


Humpty Dumpty had a great fall



All the king's horses



and all the king's men



Couldn't put Humpty together again.




When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said, in a rather scornful tone, "it means just what I choose it to mean--neither more nor less."

"The question is," said Alice, "whether you can make words mean so many different things."

"The question is," said Humpty Dumpty, "which is to be master. That's all."

'Alice Through the Looking Glass', Lewis Carroll, 1872



Which is to be master? In the end, the truth will be the master and Humpty Dumpty will soon be done. Just watch out for the raw egg splats that are going to be flying all over the place.

1. Man, if that first picture isn't an accident waiting to happen...
the Secret Service guys must have been thinking, "Oh no...not again!"
