like i was always told the rhyme to pick sumbody went like this:

"eeny meeny miney moe
catch a tiger by the toe
if he hollers let him go
eeny meeny miney moe"

my grandpa says that it used to be

"eeny meeny miney moe
catch a nigger by the toe
if he hollers let him go
eeny meeny miney moe"

WTF that makes more sense cuz tigers dont got toes.  LOL.  so wats the truth about all this?

its like agatha christies novel.
It was first: 10 little nigger, and then was changed to: Ten little indians, and after that, to: and then there were none. Long ago white people were "allowed" to say nigger. Those were sad times.

i thought tigers have claws, not toes -- niggers have toes, not claws.

They are all confusing, because they have been modified because of misinterpretation and censorship.

Ring around the rosie was some sort of death spin, at one point in history. Children would sing it before they would die of the plague.
