Another great day

Today, according to my special calendar, is "Tongue Twister Day". I didn't know tongue twisters needed a day but I've accumulated a few favorites over the years.  Every play I've been in begins each performance with a half hour warm up. In addition to physical exercises we stand on stage projecting our voices to the far corners of the theater and reciting such ditties as 'unique New York, unique New York, you know you need unique New York" and "red leather, yellow leather, red leather. yellow leather" over and over. One of my favorites is "What a todo to die today at a minute or two til two. A thing distinctly hard  to say yet harder still to do."  Of course there's also the classic "She sells sea shells by the sea shore." That's it, I've had my fill of tongue twisters for today.
