Watching your "f'"s and "p"s in a found twister
Having gotten those lips of yours moving with the tongue twister finished yesterday, I offer another jaw exerciser, again from the sports pages:
"all four par five holes"
Can you do it even six times without messing up a syllable, going at a steady, medium-fast pace?

Limber those lips: a Tongue Twister
As often happens, the daily paper supplies a good one. In the World Series, the New York Mets finally took the third game from the Kansas City Royals when fastball pitcher Syndergaard started the game with a 99 mph pitch high and inside, announcing the Mets, now in their home stadium, weren't going to let Game 3 get away from them as the first two did.
The single column but large print headline on the continuation of the article in the inner pages read this way:
High heat
lifts Mets,
miffs Royals
OK, see if you can say those words fast 10 times without slipping up. Betcha can't. For one thing, you have to get your lips together for the [m] sounds, but you have to get them apart for the [f], [t], and [s] sounds.
Good luck! In any case you'll give your facial muscles a workout.
