Voice: The pizza man's here with our dinner. Voice: Yay! Alice: The Pizza Man, the Pizza Man, want some pizza? Here's the plan- Call him up and ask him please, Bring me one with extra cheese! Alice: That's the best thing MotherGoose ever wrote! Dad: You're confusing nursery rhymes and TV jingles again.

Sadly, I don’t remember any pizza TV commercial jingles (save “Pizza! Pizza!” from Little Caesar’s).

Two of my favorite TV jingles were from Burger King and Reese’s Pieces. Isn’t capitalism grand?

Love that “Mother Goose” rhyme and dance in panel 2! Alice looks so happy! (Hey, who wouldn’t be happy, with a fresh pizza at the door?!)Don’t fuss, Mr. Otterloop; it’s no big deal.

Good rhyme, Richard! You can sing it to the tune of a mashup of “The Muffin Man” and “Blue Tail Fly.”

Well, it SHOULD have been a nursery rhyme!

I wonder why the Otterloop’s garage door doesn’t close all the way.

I almost feel as if I know that tune, though I’m sure I’ve never heard it before.
