Say something that nobody cares about.

I'll start:

My first dog was named Benji.

If you stacked every A4 page that I've read in the past three years up in a pile, the pile would be almost three metres high. I read over 2000 non-A4 pages last month.

The first book I remember reading was Pierre. I memorized it. It was a little mini book.

[Prologue:]
There was once a boy named Pierre
Who only would say, I don't care!
Read his story, my friend, for you'll find
At the end that a suitable
Moral lies there

[Chapter I]

One day his mother said
When Pierre climbed out of bed
-Good morning, darling boy, you are my only joy
Pierre said-I don't care!
-What would you like to eat?
-I don't care!
-Some lovely cream of wheat?
-I don't care!
-Don't sit backwards in your chair
-I don't care!
-Or pour syrup on your hair
-I don't care!
-You are acting like a clown
-I don't care!
-And we have to go to town
-I don't care!
-Don't you want to come, my dear?
-I don't care!
-Would you rather stay right here?
-I don't care!
So his mother left him there

[Chapter II]

His father said-Get off your head
Or I will march you up to bed!
Pierre said-I don't care!
-I would think that you could see -
-I don't care!
-Your head is where your feet should be!
-I don't care!
-If you keep standing upside down -
-I don't care!
-We'll never get to town
-I don't care!
-If only you would say, I care
-I don't care!
-I'd let you fold the folding chair
-I don't care!
So his parents left him there
They didn't take him anywhere

[Chapter III]

Now as the night began to fall
A hungry lion paid a call
He looked Pierre right in the eye
And asked him if he'd like to die
Pierre said-I don't care!
-I can eat you, don't you see?
-I don't care!
-And you will be inside of me
-I don't care!
-Then you will never have to bother -
-I don't care!
-With a mother and a father
-I don't care!
-Is that all you have to say?
-I don't care!
-Then I'll eat you, if I may
-I don't care!
So the lion ate Pierre

[Chapter IV]

Arriving home at six o'clock
His parents had a dreadful shock!
They found the lion sick in bed and cried
-Pierre is surely dead!
They pulled the lion by the hair
They hit him with the folding chair
His mother asked-Where is Pierre?
The lion answered-I don't care!
His father said-Pierre's in there!

[Chapter V]

They rushed the lion into town
The doctor shook him up and down
And when the lion gave a roar
Pierre fell out upon the floor
He rubbed his eyes and scratched his head
And laughed because he wasn't dead
His mother cried and held him tight
His father asked-Are you allright?
Pierre said-I am feeling fine
Please take me home, it's half past nine

The lion said-If you would care
To climb on me, I'll take you there
Then everyone looked at Pierre
Who shouted-Yes, indeed, I care!
The lion took them home to rest
And stayed on as a weekend guest
The moral of Pierre is: CARE!

No one cares that I'm writing the prequel to Titanic, called Road to Titanic. It's mainly about the girls family and why they became poor, and how she was forced into an engagement to Billy Zane

the quests of super mango still exist on despite the fight that i didn't draw i doodle today(i draw one every saturday). today super mango escaped from being lowered into the vat of acid and destroyed the evil cucumber's(pickle) lair with the power of vitamin c. the pickle's sodium powers were no match for super mango. as usual the innocent strawberry was being destracted by the evil cucumber's cronies and did not know any of this was going on.

There is cat hair all over the place. No matter how much I clean, I keep finding more.

My first cat was named Frisky. He used to climb on the roofs of the houses and come into my bedroom window at night. He only came by when he was hungry. He scarred my face.

Nobody cares that I have run out of reading material AGAIN. Besides me, that is.

I need to be restrained from bookstores. I spend a lot of money there.
