Silly Billy's Time to Rhyme by Jen Turner

Shall We Tell the President? -- Jeffrey Archer

Don't Tell Anyone -- Peg Kehret

Hmmm, was I being too abstruse? Lips rhymes with ships, hence silly/billy and time/rhyme. Probably outside the rules...?

Harborrose - I did not see your post, which is why my follow-up does not make sense. I think we must have been posting at the same time - both in response to "Loose Lips." And I think your post was fine - no real rules that I know of in this game.

okay, well, let's pick it up again, then - thanks for the comment, Kathy.

(Harborrose - I didn't get the "Christmas Carol" connection. The "Phantom" connection, by the way, is the fact that the phantom wore a mask - perhaps not obvious to everyone either.)

A Christmas Carol is about ghosts, right? Past, Present and Future? Phantoms and ghosts are similar things to me. :)

B'rer Rabbit - Uncle Remus

Donna

The Tar Baby - Joel Chandler Harris

( Thanks Donna and well done Harborrose. I had thought the 'connection' between Christmas Carol and Phantom of the Opera was 'music' based ie carol - opera . . . but your explanation was much more obvious and cleverer!)
