Eenie...Meanie…Miney…Moe is a short, English choosing jingle. Known to children throughout the world, the rhyme has countless, regional tongues, variations and more than a few controversies.
A former submariner known as Juan Caruso al Humacao penned a variation that he considers may better reflect original intent.
A recent archeological discovery in Babylon explains the underlying reference to Moe, according to al Humacao:
Eenie...Meanie…Miney…Moe, Catch a prophet by the toe;
Eenie...Meanie…Miney…Moe, If he's peaceful, let him go;
Eenie...Meanie…Miney…Moe, Or, off to Guantánamo!
Eenie...Meanie…Miney…Moe, Catch a prophet by the toe;
Eenie...Meanie…Miney…Moe, If he's peaceful, let him go;
Eenie...Meanie…Miney…Moe, Or, off to Guantánamo!
Apologies to Muslim friends.
