“Rootin’, Tootin’, Two-ton Teuton”

The title is so much better than the article that we will simply dispense with most of the contents.

We have already seen one link to something similar. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karl-Ger%C3%A4t referring to a giant German artillery piece that fired a projectile that weighed about two tons.

Hopefully, a reader will have and share a suggestion for an article that fits such a fine title as “Rootin’, Tootin’, Two-ton Teuton”.

The title does one thing well: It helps us understand the difficulty that others have in learning The English Language. “tootin”, “two-ton” and “Teuton” all sound alike, but the intellectual gymnastics of an English speaker are able to make some sort of sense out of the sentence “Rootin’, tootin’, two-ton Teuton.”

A few years ago, a book on the complexity of our language was published with a title of similar clarity: “Eats Shoots and Leaves”. It may be that “Rootin’ Tootin’ Two-ton Teuton” is a worthy title to a second in the series.
