TIME FOR TRASHING
"That's a good one!" said Filberto to The Pirate. He turned to The Mouse. "Now show us the best way into the house. We've got some serious trashing ahead of us!"

THE MONSTER
Filberto espied The Mouse first and held The Pirate away. "I'll protect you from this monster," he told his friend.
"I'm not a monster, I'm a mouse," said the Mouse, and I'll show you the best way into the house."
"One more rhyme and you're breakfast," warned Filberto.
"Is blank verse all right then?" asked The Mouse.

THE VOTE
Filberto and The Pirate held a low-level meeting to decide how to infiltrate the house.
"I could gnaw a hole in the foundation," proposed Filberto. "Then we could crawl through the vents."
"Another capital idea!" cried The Pirate. "All in favor, say 'Aye!'"
"Aye!" said Filberto, swigging from The Pirate's bottle.
"Aye!" said The Pirate.
"Eek!" said another voice.
"Eek?' said The Pirate. "What kind of a vote is that?"
"I could gnaw a hole in the foundation," proposed Filberto. "Then we could crawl through the vents."

WHILE SHE CHEWS & HE SUES--
Monday, April 20, 2009
PLUS ÇA CHANGE....
Night was beginning to fall, and Pinocchio could not--or would not--move. "I thought-a you were going to call-a for the help? " he asked Carol Cowstanzo.
"I hate to rush with anything," she replied, ruminating.
"Time is of-a the essence," he said.
"OK, just let me finish chewing and I'll get right on it."
"Hurry-a up, because I can-a sue-a you!"

ANSWERS & QUESTIONS
There was a simple answer: He had come originally to huff and to puff and to blow the house down (it's a common practice amongst wolves), but then saw the place was mighty nice and wanted to figure out a way to get it all for himself.
What is it about nice houses that makes some puppets needy? Speaking of which, what has been happening back at Little Red Riding Hood's house while she is at Malin Ridge Farm?

RED RIDING HOOD GOES TO MALIN RIDGE FARM
After she dropped off some goodies with the deserving Token Blogger, Little Red Riding Hood then made another basket of goodies run to Malin Ridge Farm. She let herself in the side door to the Solarium while Boo was down at the stables feeding the horses. Little Red Riding Hood had heard from a little owl that this would be a good time to bring a basket of goodies there.

GREENER PASTURES
Wednesday, April 8, 2009
INSULT TO INJURY, YAY!
"This is-a the insult-a to the-a injury!" said Pinocchio, suddenly feeling much better. "Don't-a you touch-a me, I am going to need-a the ambulance chaser to see how much pain and suffering I have."
"You want a doctor?" asked Carol Cowstanzo.
"Get me one of him-a, too," said Pinocchio.
Carol became afraid of thought there must be greener pastures somewhere, and simpler puppets to deal with.

SOME COW-NFUSION
Monday, April 6, 2009
ON THE OTHER HAND....
"Help-a me up!" Pinocchio repeated, trying not to add, "You're the one who-a knock-a me down, you stupid-a cow."
"Of course," said Carol Cowstanzo, grabbing his hand. Unfortunately, she was still in chewing mode.
"OWWWW!" said Pinocchio. "Let-a go!"
"Well, make up your mind, which is it?" said Carol Cowstanzo.

ABSOLUTELY NO ONE CAN GET IN
Carol Cowstanzo finally emerged and secured the new locks against Little Red Riding Hood. "Absolutely no one can get in now," she chortled, pleased with her work. "Oh, just one last nibble," she said, turning back to the tasty front bush and knocking Pinocchio even more off-kilter.
"Ow! My back!" cried Pinocchio.
But Carol Cowstanzo was too busy enjoying her treat to notice.

NOW THAT'S HARD WORK!
As he juggled the large boxes, he wondered if he had taken enough, or should he go back to get more? He did want more, but his back was beginning to hurt. In his wooden mind, he weighed the pain in his back against the benefits of taking more of Little Red Riding Hood's prized books and antiques, that he figured she didn't really deserve. She's-a never worked a real-a job in her-a life, he thought to himself. Lifting these-a boxes of heavy valuables, now that's-a hard work!
