Dear Pungents, I just read the Taiwan puns, and am hoping you can come up with something for Holland, where I am living and studying until July. ~ Kristen, Maastricht, Holland

1) “I took my bike with me on my trip. There is nothing better than Holland ass in a race!”

2) “Wooden you like to take home some clogs as a souvenir?”

3) “This country is so big. Some parts are so far out of the way they call them as the nether lands!”

4) Hear about the beaver that mated with the hamster? It started building hamster dams!

5) The inhabitants of Holland love to talk. After all, each citizen has two lips!

6) Those in the capital don’t seem to like the rest of the country. The rapper P-Diddy had to tell them, “Don’t Hague!”
