The Carrot and the Bo Staff

“Eat your rice pudding, young man!”

“I don’ wanna!”

“Eat it all up, or you won’t get any ninja turtles!”

“But Mooooooooooom…”

“I’ll tell the store to never let you have a Donatello ever!”

That did it. Little Billy ate rice pudding every day for the rest of his life.

The Luxuriant Life

“Finally!” complained Fluffy the cat in the softly exasperated voice of a young mother. “The kittens are down for nap time. All they ever do is eat, sleep, and whine!”

Mittens, her husband, mewed appreciatively. “What should we do with our free time?”

“Grab a snack and get some shuteye.”

EBON WUMON: Scott Davidson, the Go-Getter

There once was a dragon named Scott Davidson. The higher-ups liked him, a real go-getter. He was destined for the top.

One day, he was covering for Robert, the hiring manager. An applicant walked in and screamed, “HOLY MOTHER OF PEARL! IT’S AN UGLY DRAGON!”

Scott ate him.

The End.

LENNY: The Opportunist

“Caw,” said the crow, turning its blind eye towards her. She always fell for it. What would today’s treat be? The big knife meant cooking day. That meant meat scraps or fish-guts or chicken skin. It hopped greedily to her outstretched hand.

She stroked it. It was finally fat enough.

Eat Your Heart Out

“Want to go out tonight?” Kevin asked.

“I’d rather stay in,” said Jack. “It’s been a rough week. I went to break-up dinners with different girls on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday.”

“I can see how that would be emotionally draining…”

“Emotionally? Heck no. But I’ve gained, like, seven pounds!”

True Wisdom

“Life is like pizza,” Giovanni once told me. “You can cover it with different toppings, but the core ingredients are the same. And no matter how you prepare it, some people enjoy eating it more than others.”

I thought he was so wise. Then I learned he was a cannibal.
