  COOPER -- COOPER -- IT RHYMES WITH POOPERSCOOPER.    WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN, IN JAYLE?

  Actually, the only cooper in the little New England town of Poopers was a little guy named Hooper.    Since he was the only cooper in Poopers, he could do crappy work on all the barrel rings he made, and so he made a lot of bloopers and didn't give a hoot because he, Hooper, was the only cooper in Poopers.    They used to laugh about it and say, "Well, yeeep, them's more of Hooper's blooper coopers from Poopers."
