Weebles Wobble, But They Don't Fall Down

Take note of the Weeble; and, see how they repeatedly get knocked around yet always return to an upright position.

If you would like to see how this is possible for one particular "Weeble" and for many other "Weebles" around the world and throughout history, I encourage you to click on this link. :

Just so everyone knows, when I write about being bullied, I am trying to teach you to show empathy. Do people even know what that word means anymore? It's hard to believe that most people know what it means when you look at how people treat one another day after day.

Don't Judge A Book by Its Cover

It has come to my attention that some people think that I view myself as some sort of Frankenstein monster and/or a friendly circus elephant. Nothing could be further from the truth. "Don't judge a book by its cover": I know it's a cliché; but, that is the point I have tried to make all throughout my writing. All of my life I have wanted people to look past my quiet exterior or whatever else people see when they look at me and see the good underneath. If you reread some of the things I have written with that perspective in mind, I think you will see "Don't judge a book by its cover" as a recurring theme in many things that I have written. Here is one example from Hey Dumbo #3: "Be like the blind man in Frankenstein and seek the beauty within. What you find may surprise you."

"I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character." What do you suppose MLK, Jr meant by that?:

Build Your House on the Rock

[24] “Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock. [25] And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock. (Matthew 7:24-25 ESV)
I was born in Menasha, Wisconsin.
I grew up in a house in a town near Green Bay.
My dad was a poor hard working Menasha automobile man.
Many were the times that he bowed his head to pray.
I loved a girl in Middleton, Wisconsin.
The daughter of a hard working Christian man.
He called me, "That son of a Menasha automobile man."
Good enough to claim his daughter's hand.
Now I'm up here in the Fox Valley, looking for 'refined' gold.
Lookin' all around this frozen ground, just as I was told.
With each new day I pray I'll strike it rich and then,
I'll go back home and claim my love in Middleton, Wisconsin.
I wrote my love in Middleton, Wisconsin.
I said, "Honey, I'm a coming home, please wait for me."
"And you can tell your dad, I'm coming back a richer man."
"I've hit the biggest strike in bowling history."
Her dad met me in Middleton, Wisconsin.
He gave me a great big party with guests from near and far.
Then he said, "Son, you're a wise, young ambitious man."
"Will you sell your father-in-law your no sugar Klondike Bar?"

Now the President's up there in Alaska, looking all around.
The greedy fool is looking for the 'refined' gold he never found.
It serves him right and no one here is missing him.
Least of all the newlyweds of Middleton, Wisconsin.

We're the happiest man and wife in Middleton, Wisconsin.
He's ashamed to show his face in Middleton, Wisconsin.
