The Humpty Dumpty Tragedy (2012)
“Nathaniel P. Osgood III, here. I usually get paid for the work I do for clients here in town. But I once had a case in which I was my own client. Ergo, no income. Believe me, I earned every penny!
You have all heard the story of Humpty Dumpty and his unfortunate fall. It was big news back when it happened. A walking, talking egg is indeed a phenomenon even in this part of the world. The story got front page treatment in The Nurseryland Tattler, our local rag. The pictures were unsettling to be ...sure. Oh, I have seen broken eggs before, but usually in frying pans; not splattered all over the street. And the soldiers and horses working over this mess made for great TV. The ratings were sky high.
Now why, you ask, would they even attempt to put this thing back together? A valid question. It was obvious to everyone that Humpty was beyond help. But we are dealing with the government here, and Government Intelligence is an oxymoron. The whole affair was hopeless and a waste of taxpayers’ money.MoreLess
