I love seeing this pig every time I go to Pike Place.
I recently saw a picture of some ladies sitting on this guy (a friend of mine found it online), and ever since then I've promised that I would get myself a picture on it as well.
Oops...I just found out that the pig's name is Rachel. Learn something new every day.
So, do I get the extra credit for hamming it up?
"This little pig went to the market.
This little pig stayed home.
This little pig had roast beef.
This little pig had none.
And this little pig went
Wee, wee, wee, wee, all the way home."
"To market, to market to buy a fat pig,
Home again, home again, jiggety jig.
To market, to market to buy a fat hog,
Home again, home again, jiggety jog.
To market, to market, to buy a plum bun
Home again, home again, market is done."
