" Sammy
the sushi chef served six starving sharks assorted sushi"

ground up garlic oil"

looney tune"
"Albert the aging alligator accidently ate Dr. Arnold the armadillo
while trying to extract his ailing abscessed tooth"

old toad travelling the old road to town"

beams, he's going to break the bell in the belfry
