[Dingle-Dingle]

Mrs. O'Malley woke up on a fine Monday and decided to make a delicious stew for her dear husband of 50 years.

She grabbed carrots, potatoes, celery, radishes and a out to the barn for a rabbit. She gathered all the ingredients and was getting ready to start putting them into the pot when she realized she didn't have any onions.

"Well, I certainly cant make a delicious stew without any onions!" she exclaimed.

So, put the rabbit back in the barn and left everything else on the counter. She donned her bonnet and boots and decided to head down to the market to buy some onions.

She went straight to Tommy's produce stand. He always had the freshest vegetables.

"Well, top of the morning to you Mrs. O'Malley! How does this wonderful day find you?" Tommy greeted her.

"Ahh, well Tommy, I was going to make a stew for John, but I don't have any onions." Mrs. O'Malley lamented.

"Well, I'm sorry to say Mrs. O'Malley, but we are fresh out and I don't expect any onions until Thursday." Tommy replied.

"Oh, well I suppose Ill come back then, Tommy. Have a good day." Mrs. O'Malley said.

Well, Tuesday comes and Mrs. O'Malley sees all of her ingredients for the delicious stew are still on the counter.

"Well, I certainly cant make a delicious stew without onions! Ill head down to Tommy's, he always has the freshest vegetables!" Mrs. O'Malley claimed excitedly.

So, she donned her bonnet and boots and headed straight away for Tommy's.

"Wellll, its good to see you again, Mrs. O'Malley, and top of the morning to ya. What can I do for this morning!" Tommy smiled.

"Well Tommy, I was going to make a stew for John, but I don't have any onions. I came here straight away because you have the freshest onions!" Mrs. O'Malley said matter of factly.

Tommy chuckled, "Well, Mrs. O'Malley, you must have forgotten. Today is Tuesday and I wont have any onions until Thursday!"

"Oh, of course. I will come back then." Mrs. O'Malley stated.

Wednesday rolls around and Mrs. O'Malley comes downstairs to find all the ingredients for a delicious stew on the table, but alas, there are no onions!

"Well, I cant very well make a delicious stew without any onions!" Mrs. O'Malley exclaimed. "Ill head straight away to Tommy's. He always has the freshest vegetables."

So, she donned her bonnet and boots and headed for Tommy's.

Tommy see's Mrs. O'Malley headed for his stand and, lets just say Tommy wasn't have a top of the morning.

"Hello, Mrs. O'Malley. What do you want." Tommy grumbled.

"Well, Tommy, I was going to make a stew---" Mrs. O'Malley started.

"Ya, you were going to make a stew for John and you don't have any onions." Tommy said, cutting her off.

"Well, that's right Tommy, how did you know?" Mrs. O'Malley said surprisingly.

"Mrs. O'Malley, let me ask you a couple of questions. If you take the A-T-O out of potato, what do you get?"

"Well Tommy, I suppose you would get POT." Mrs. O'Malley said.

"Right, okay, if you take the A-T-O of tomato, what do you get?" Tommy asked.

"Well, you would certainly get TOM!" Mrs. O'Malley said with a smile.

"Very good, Mrs. O'Malley, now, if you take the F-U-C-K out of onions, what do you get?" Tommy asked, his patience running thin.

"Well Tommy, I... well, there is no xxxx in onions" Mrs. O'Malley said, very confused.

"THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO TELL YOU MRS. O'MALLEY!" Tommy screamed.
