wesommer (Bill Sommerfeld):
There is a seven year old boy in England who is in the
hospital with an inoperable tumor in his brain and
backbone. His name is Craig Sherborne.
Craig's last wish is to enter the Guiness Book of Records as
the boy with the most "Blue Star" LSD-impregnated tattoos,
which have begun appearing in local schoolyards, according
to a local police chief. These may be identified by the
picture of a blue star, or of Mickey Mouse.
Craig was in the news recently when he was rescued at the
last minute in a kidnapping attempt at a local K-Mart. His
frantic mother had scarcely noticed he was missing when she
notified security, who found the lad, his hair hacked off to
disguise his appearance, and wearing a dress, in the women's
room. The unknown assailant escaped and is still at large.
Craig was unable to call for help because of an unfortunate
mutilation suffered last Halloween when he bit into an apple
containing a concealed razor blade.
Craig's spinal condition was discovered in the course of
surgery for an condition involving a gerbil. The hospital
spokesperson did not elaborate further.
Please send him a Blue Star tattoo at the following address.
