Many many years ago the Playboy magazine published a set of 
censored Mother Goose rhymes.  By the device of blacking out
certain words, they allowed your imagination to get full reign.
I can't remember very many of them, and posted this to stimulate
some of the more imaginative netters.

Consider the following version of Three Blind Mice:

	Three blind mice.
	Three blind mice.
	See how they ________.
	See how they ________.

	They all ran after the farmer's wife.
	She cut off their ______ with a carving knife.
	Did you ever see such a sight in your life?
	Three blind mice.

Here is the poem Solomon Grundy.

	Poor Solomon Grundy.
	Born on Sunday.
	_______ on Monday.
	_______ on Tuesday.
	_______ on Wednesday.
	_______ on Thursday.
	_______ on Friday.
	Died on Saturday.
	Poor Solomon Grundy.

	(A short life but a fruitful one.)

Finally, Little Jack Horner.

	Little Jack Horner
	sat in the corner
	eating his _______.
	
	He stuck in his _______
	and pulled out a plum
	and said "what a ________ am I".
