Now, Be Really Careful What You Wish For Once upon a time in a town called Danville, Va., there lived a doctor named Dr. Doctor. His original name would have been Dr. Keel, but he didn’t figure he would have a lot of people wanting to be treated by somebody who had that name. He was also, as some people called him, “eye candy.” In other words, he was a real knock-out just to look at him. He was a cross between Tom Cellick, John Waine, Richerd Simmens and Hulk Hogan all rolled into one. He was also a real certified genius who had a b...

Once upon a time in a huge metropolis called Danville, Va. There lived a 10 year-old boy named Fred.

A Bunny, “Tale” To Make You Be, “Hoppy” Once upon a time up in Danville, Va., there lived a little, brown bunny who had 9 siblings. Its parents couldn’t tell if it was a boy or girl when it was just fresh-hatched, (it’s really hard to tell on a rabbit). Therefore, “it’s” parents decided if it was a girl, they’d name her Misty, or if it was a boy, they’d name him Mister. The same for the others. It wouldn’t matter until the little thing was older anyway, so they weren’t worried about it. Their main concern was thinking of names for...

You, “Blue” It If This Story Is Not, “Red” Once upon a time in a huge metropolis called Danville, Va., there lived a young girl who answered to the name of Cara.
