I watched the Peanuts halloween TV special, "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown," every year when I was a kid. I got very confused when Linus kept saying that his pumpkin patch had nothing but sincerity "as far as the eye can see" because, besides not knowing what sincerity was, I always heard the last part as "asfarazee I can see." I always wondered what an asfarazee was and why it was so great that Linus could see it.
