Here’s what Di says about today’s challenge:

Some real silliness this week inspired by song lyrics, daft thoughts that entered my head and fill ins from the internet.

***

1. What is a ‘da doo ron ron’? … This is slang for when you and your girlfriend/or boyfriend goes sneaking off down the country lane.

2. What is meant by ‘de do do do, de dah dah dah’? … This series of sounds mean you are marching in an Army formation.

3. What is a Rock a doodle do? … This is an old style hair do for men where he has a duck tail in back and a spiked topknot.

4. How would you define the word PRICKLE?  .. Prickle is that sticky candy with peanuts – it’s brittle, too.  .

5. What is an airhead? … This is a part in the engine of a car. I think it regulates the air or something.

6. What is Mahna Mahna? …Okay I know this, it was in the news lately. It’s that alien spacecraft they found flying over Hawaii. The UfO was shaped like a lumpy cigar.

7. What is a rockin’ robin? … We used to do these with our pen pal friends. It’s a letter you add comments to, then pass it on to another pen friend.

8. What is a hoecake? … This is when city people try to be countrified, and hold a barn dance with square dancing and cake walks.

9. Why did Tiny Tim ‘Tiptoe Through The Tulips?’ … He tiptoed because he wanted to make a quick get-away.

10. Why isn’t it easy being green? … You don’t want to be green, because people think you are ill. They give all kinds of unwanted advice to make you feel better, but it does the opposite hearing all their sickness stories.
