I remember steady ender. But I think the term for a spazzed-out double dutch rope turner is “double handed.” At least that’s what they called it in my neck of the woods. Is that what you were thinking of, Sarawasgood?

The spades go two lips together, twighlight in heaven, bring back my love to me What is the meaning Of all these flowers They tell the story The story of L-O and V-E, L-O and V-E, L-O and V-E LOVE! The one with Shimmy Shimmy Cocoa Pop starts: Down down baby, down by the roller coaster Sweet, sweet baby, I’ll never let you go… Then the shimmy shimmy cocoa pop. On the last pop you threw your thumbs out behind your shoulders and shouted the word “pop.”

Okay, here’s the clean version of Miss Lucy: Miss Lucy had a baby, she named him Tiny Tim, She put him in the bathtub to see if he could swim. He drank up all the water, he ate up all the soap, He tried to eat the bathtub, but it wouldn’t go down his throat. Miss Lucy called the doctor, Miss Lucy called the nurse; Miss Lucy called the lady with the alligator purse. Etc. etc. etc.

Yes. Chinese Jumprope was done with all of those rubber bands that you linked together to form a chain. I AM truly proud to say that I was able to do that well. And we have found a great use for those stretchy chains, today: We suspend a short one from our bedroom doorknob to the door knob of an adjacent hall closet. It allows our cats to go in and out of our room, during the summer, without letting out too much of the cooled air. And nobody’s tail has been caught yet. And our cats aren’t even Chinese!
