Now we know.

Burl’s head could easily serve as a rattle … empty except for a tiny petrified brain.

…well, that ain’t a Barf-O-Lounger that whoever in the picture is nestled in…….

I think I hear a rattle in Burl’s head.

The baby is cute… Burl, well, you know…!

There’s something we don’t need to know this is one of them.

The TV screen says it all!

“What a waste it is to lose one’s mind. Or not to have a mind is being very wasteful. How true that is.”(Vice President Dan Quayle – this was part of his address to the United Negro College Fund, whose slogan is “a mind is a terrible thing to waste”)

Found the rattle!
