Mnemonic


[tu-] Tom Cat is [2] inside the lobby of the [-o] office building riding atop of a 馬 horse. Part of one of Jerry's pranks, the office is full of 駝 camels and Tom is trying to get by them to reach the elevator so he can get to work. He hits each of their humps with a 匕 spoon as he rides past, making the 駝 camels reflexively sit down and settle down. Before he can reach the lobby elevator, Jerry drops a 宀 dollhouse on his head, knocking him off of his 馬 horse and landing on a bunch of 駝 camels.
