How much Prince could the Prince of Wales wail if the Prince of Wales could wail Prince?

I'm sorry, Sean, that's incorrect. The correct answer is:
A woodchuck would chuck all the wood he could chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood.

Actually both a technically correct since it depends on the woodchuck.

I'm afraid it does. Now, Eliot, you'll have to die.

Pangaro, I'll grant you your last wish.

You know, Pangaro, I know our AUP is a bit vague and all, but somehow I don't think .sig files ought to contain death threats. It just doesn't strike me as appropriate somehow.

Actually, from what I learned, it's "A woodchuck would chuck as much wood as a woodchuck could chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood," and you both seem to have shortened forms of it...

Eliot's version breaks up the rhythm of the tongue-twister; my version simply truncates by way of dropping off the first four words, since it's a reply to the question, making those words unnecessary in anything but the most formal speech.

Not the way I say it. The whole point is to say "all the wood he could chuck" extremely quickly - it comes out more like, "A woodchuck would chuck allthewoodhecouldchuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood." Which makes it a lot harder to say, thereby increasing the tongue-twisteriness of it.
