As for riddles and singing - I can't help - but I will tell you this.

If there's a jiggling, thumping and bumping rattle coming from under your feet then check that the front exhaust pipe is not resting on the trans cross-member. It should be supported/propped off the cross-member by about an inch (maybe two) on the passenger side. There's a hangar there that has broken twice on my XJ...

I only noticed mine under load though.. so idling and such it sounded fine but I would drive or crawl and it would be hell in the cabin.
