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.
