Buggy Buggskicker of Bugville USA
There once was a man and his name was Buggy. Buggy was smart but he really did not eat much flouder in his days. He liked to share his money with every person he ever met but he did something very troubling, he kicked the bugs on the pavement every time he saw them. I think Buggy was very funny but that bug kicking habit was truly his downfall. One day a bug landed on Buggy's foot and he could not kick it away. It just sat there and left an awful smell that Buggy was unable to extinguish and was never able to be washed off the shoe. Buggy went mad because it was his only pair of shoes. He simply had no money to buy new shoes because he gave it to every one else and if he did buy new shoes, people migth think that Buggy had gone buggers. So Buggy was busy but he did not smile much. Buggy continued to kick the bugs but he really feared that another one might land on his foot again and leave an even stronger smell. So Buggy decided not to wear his shoes any more when he went out in public. Buggy was busy with his job which was a fun experience. He was a hot air balloon filler and he would fill the balloons with hot air and send happy people on their way. It was a great way of life and he was really paid really well because people really wanted to go hot air ballooning often. I missed Buggy's reaction when one day, a bug landed on his hot air balloon canvas and he could not kick the bug away. This bug left another smell and soon, every balloon smelled like the bug. The bug smell was so bad that people stopped using the balloons and Buggy was forced into retirement. Buggy was upset but he just stopped giving out his money to so many people and that was fine because noone saw Buggy anymore. But then Buggy realized that life was not so bad and he bought a new pair of shoes. The moral of the story is that if you have Bugs on your mind, be a good sport and buy bug spray. Don't kick the bugs or they might conspire to ruin your business.
