out west because she could get Scalloped.

P.U."-that's Potato University - where the Big Potatoes come from and when she
graduated, she'd really be in the Chips. But one day she came home and said she
was going to marry Walter Cronkite. Mr. and Mrs. Potato were very upset and said
she couldn't marry him because he's just a ...
COMMON TATER!!!!!!!!!
