and another one
Can you determine the nursery rhyme being stated below?
Once upon a time there was this ovum consisting of an envelope of albumen, jelly and membranes which decided to moor its entirety on a parapet. Then rather suddenly, and without notice, the ovular succumbed to the Brobdingnagian gravitational pull. The result was that the entire embodiment of the paramount's yeomanry and herbivores were unequal to the task of assemblage.

This was an actual question in a college bowl tournament! Consider these descriptions of residents of the 100-Acre Wood and determine who's who:
Resident #1 was diagnosed with an obsessive-compulsive type eating disorder--compulsive overeating and obsession with honey. He was placed on a strict diet and put into therapy.
Resident #2 was diagnosed with dysthymia and prescribed 20mg of Prozac a day. He also was suggested preventive treatment for PTSD, which may develop after the constant trauma of finding his house knocked over.
Resident #3 was too hyper to undergo therapy and often destroyed the decorative objects in his therapist's objects with constant bouncing. Instead, he was prescribed Ritalin for his ADHD, as well as Clonidine for his Tourette's syndrome.

^^^oops, forgot about that!  But you know, it's been proven to happen, I saw it in the newspaper
Hey, I was gonna post a link to the article, but that's an EXCELLENT riddle! How can a set of twins be born at the same time with one being black and one being white? (If you saw the article I'm talking about, let someone else answer.)

It's happened more than once and since I have read about both scenarios, which had different reasons I will refrain from answering. But it is not really a riddle.
