Farmers Wife Tired Of Mice

Amazing news flash! 1

Local farmers wife got tired of mice over running her house. Neighbor, Mrs. Pirdy Mae Pratt reported today. 2

Her neighbor, Mrs. Lilly Bell Jones, cornered three of the mice that turned out to be blind and managed to chop their tails clean off with her sharpest kitchen butcher knife. 3

It was the one she used to hollow out the hogs bellies when she slaughtered them. 4

She thought if she cut their tails off it would be a lesson to the others and they would all leave her house.5

The final straw came when she found out they were eating away the block of cheese she was saving for herself.6

The main thing that puzzles this reporter is, how did she know they were blind? 7

Were they born that way, or had she done something previously to them to render them to be blind.8

Be sure to read tomorrows issue for updates to this story and others. 9

Author notes

this is based on nursery rhyme three blind mice
Three blind mice,
See how they run!
They all ran after a farmer's wife,
Who cut off their tails with a carving knife.
Did you ever see such a sight in your life,
As three blind mice?

    Very Creative

    Oh my gosh. How twisted yet creative and thought provoking with a sprinkle of the dark side. I never had wondered how those three blind mice became blind. Now I may have nightmares. I must find Mary's Little Lamb before bed to change the scenery.

    As the attorney for the mice, I have to advise you that any further slandering of my clients reputation as fine, upstanding farm mice will result in legal action. Their mutilation occured after many years of loyal crumb cleaning on floors left unswept by one Lily Belle Jones who is often seen at the local saloon guzzling down beer and defaming her hard-working mice.

    Maybe there was a slight hint when the mice continously ran into wall and she knew they weren't getting intoxicated off the stolen cheese!

    Great. I think the mice deserved what they got. Anyway, I liked this one. It had a investigative feel to it. Good job.
