Green Eggs and Ham. A Classic.
We all have a copy of this somewhere, yes? If you don’t, well then, shame on you.
That Sam-I-am:
Do you like green eggs and ham? Would you like them here or there? Would you like them in a house? Would you like them with a mouse? Would you eat them in a box? Would you eat them with a fox? Would you? Could you? In a car? Could you, would you, on a train? Would you, could you, in the dark? Would you, could you, in the rain? Could you, would you, with a goat? Would you, could you, on a boat? You do not like them. So you say. Try them! Try them! And you may.
That Sam-I-am stayed the course. Green Eggs and Ham.
A Challenge.
From snopes.com
Claim: Dr. Seuss wrote Green Eggs and Ham after being challenged by his editor to produce a book using fewer than fifty different words.
Status: True.

Inspiration via IRC. Again.
Is it obvious IRC has a hold on me?
