Hee-hawing -- City vs Country Mouse

  
	         Country mouse’s unrestrained giggles drew the attention 
                    of city mouse, too sophisticated to mention 

                        that his cousin’s hee-hawing had city mouse
                           whipsawing between guffawing and prissy pretension

I remember when Bill 'Moose' Skowron came to bat for the Yankees in the '50's and '60's. The sound of 'MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSE' filled the ballpark.
