* Two Boot Blacks: a White Boot Black and a Black Boot Black stood together doing nothing. The White Boot Black proposed that he should black the boots of the Black Boot Black.
The Black Boot Black was perfectly willing to have his boots blacked by the White Boot Black, so the White Boot Black began blacking the boots of the Black Boot Black with the blacking on the black boot black. But when the White Boot Black had blacked one bot of the Black Boot Black he declined to black the other boot of the Black Boot Black until the Black Boot Black had blacked both boots of the White Boot Black. This made the Black Boot Black very angry and he refused point blank to have his boots blacked by the White Boot Black and said he didn’t care whether the White Boot Black blacked the other boot black or not. He considered that a Black Boot Black with one boot blacked was better than a White Boot Black with no boots blacked.
Then the White Boot Black called the Black Boot Black, a black blackguard.
Of course when the White Boot Black began blacking the character of the Black Boot Black, the Black Boot Black began blacking the face of the White Boot Black with the blacking on the boot the White Boot Black had blacked, and the White Boot Black blacked the Black Boot Black back.
When the Society of Black and White Boot Blackers considered the matter they characterised the conduct of both Boot Blacks as the Blackest Affair that had ever blackened the pages of Boot Black history.

* Ned Nott was shot and Sam Shott was not.
So it is better to be Shott than Nott.
Some say Nott was not shot.
But Shott says he shot Nott.
Either the shot Shott shot at Nott was not shot,
Or Nott was shot.
If the shot Shott shot shot Nott, Nott was shot.
But if the shot Shott shot shot Shott,
Then Shott was shot, not Nott.
However, the shot Shott shot shot not Shott, but Nott.
Thanks Ken

* Two Boot Blacks: a White Boot Black and a Black Boot Black stood together doing nothing.

The White Boot Black proposed that he should black both boots of the Black Boot Black. The Black Boot Black refused point blank to have his boots blacked by the White Boot Black and said he didn’t care whether the White Boot Black blacked the other boot black or not. He considered that a Black Boot Black with one boot blacked was better than a White Boot Black with no boots blacked.

Then the White Boot Black called the Black Boot Black, a black blackguard.

When the White Boot Black began blacking the character of the Black Boot Black, the Black Boot Black began blacking the face of the White Boot Black all black with the blacking on the boot the White Boot Black had blacked and the White Boot Black blacked the Black Boot Black back.

When the Society of Black and White Boot Blackers considered the matter they characterised the conduct of both Boot Blacks as the Blackest Affair that had ever blackened the pages of Boot Black history.
