Once upon a time there was a silly old snail named Simon. He would laugh hysterically at the silliest things you can imagine. What kinds of things did he laugh at you ask? Silly things like watching squirrels in polka dot bikinis do the hula hoop or listening to a rhinoceros sing in the shower.
One day Simons’ friend Sally found him looking kind of sad.
“What’s wrong?” asked Sally
“I dunno, nothin’ seems silly to me anymore.” said Simon sadly
“Why?” asked Sally
“I dunno…I see giraffes wearing suspenders to hold up their long pants, I see elephants doing the backstroke in the swimming hole, I see horses doing country line dancing…But I don’t feel silly anymore. I guess I just have the blues.”
