once upon a time, there was a spying eagle named Golde. He liked to spy on girls. He LOVED to spy on girls’ clubs all the time. He spied on boys only sometimes.

One time, he was driving around, and he saw some girls and decided to spy on them. He got on the roof and was looking through the glass of the skylight. He threw a rope around the chimney. He began to climb down to peek in the window. He fell down the glass and got caught by the girls. The girls looked up and saw Golde peeking at them. They ran screaming into the closet. The girls grabbed a broom. One of them peeked out the door and saw Golde sitting and waiting. They ran after Golde, swinging the broom to scare him off. He ran out of the door like a cheetah and jumped into his car. He drove off as fast as he could. From that day on, he decided he would never spy on girls again.

Moral: Never spy on girls; you might get caught.

Anyway, I was at Walmart, shopping for a pooper-scooper.

Then, all of a sudden, a lady ran up to me and said, “Hi, my name is Jennifer Tough and my husband’s name is Oliver Tough, and we have an emergency. Someone stole my husband’s rainbow-colored diamond, right over there!” She pointed to the empty diamond container.

I asked her some questions, like, “Did you see the robber’s face?”

She answered, “Only a glimpse of it. He had red eyes and a gold leather jacket that had a bag of J.J. in its pocket. He was white and had freckles. His teeth were rotten and yellow. I told him that they came up with a new product called toothpaste. I sighed and said, ‘You
