May I add another quote:

"Laggle laggle laggle"

"spoken" by Penelope while trying to hold on to her tongue.

She actually says this all the time - wonder what it means to her.

Stacie,

It is probably like "hackendoon" which Mollie said over and over and over and over again. We never did know what it meant but it was usually spoken while marching around on one foot!
