"Rise and shine!"

How does shining appertain to rising?

Are we suns? Am I a flaming ball of hot gas?

Okay, bad example.

Besides, the sun does not rise. The Earth, as usual, is doing its stately pirouette before the footlights.

Appertain.

Appertain sounds like (that means having the appurtenance of, and wherefore, being as how) a cheap wine made from appers and the word is probably related to entertain which cheap apper wine will do nicely, thank you.

(Note to Clara Staggerforth: Your recent essay on comparing appers and orangs is fine except for the finger painting with hot sauce)
