And Theophilus looks like the old Brawny Paper Towel guy!

A tongue twister the Drama students had to master in college:

Theophilus the unsuccessful thistle sifter
While sifting a sieve full of unsifted thistles
Thrust three-thousand thistles through the thick of his thumb.

Be sure that thou,
While sifting thy sieve full of unsifted thistles
Thrustest not three-thousand thistles through the thick of thy thumb.
