Salmagundi,
Born on a Monday,
Christened on Tuesday,
Married on Wednesday,
Took ill on Thursday,
Grew worse on Friday,
Died on Saturday,
Buried on Sunday.
This is the end
Of Salmagundi.

Plush toy maker Gund came out with a line of plush stuffed sausage toys, but found few buyers for their salma-gund-i line.
