RE: OT: Winnie quote: Don't you Know What "Ther" Means"

The first Pooh story has an exchange between Christopher Robin and his father that goes something like this ...

AAM: "... anyway here he is ready to be introdcued to you now, Winnie-the-Pooh". "When I first heard the name, I said, just as you are about to say, "But I thought he was a boy."

CR: "He is."

AAM: "Then you can't call him Winnie."

CR: "I don't, he's Winne-ther-Pooh. Don't you know what 'ther' means?"

AAM: "Ah yes now I do, and I hope your do to, for it's all the explanation you are going to get."

I don't know what ther means. Perhaps I'm a DBA of very little brain.

I cannot see Rachael as the ever-depressed Eeyore. Although I can envision her chomping on thistles without complaining about how "hot" they are.
