Where did you get "armacen"? It sounds very close to the "Pen Pen de Sarapen" ditty we used to chant when we were kids. It goes like this:
Pen Pen de Sarapen
Cuchillo de ARMACEN (or ALMASEN if you come from the Southern Tagalog region)
How How D Carabao
Batuten
Sipit namimilipit
Gintong Pilak
Namumulaklak
Sa tabi ng DAGAT!
There are a couple more verses, but the lines escape me at the moment. I'll post them when I remember.

It did come from that song. I also chose it because I wanted to call the blog "almacen" (warehouse in Spanish) but it was already taken. Anyway, I'll invite everyone else tomorrow, or you can do it now if you want.
