LITERACY AND GOOD MANNERS (COUNT FOR EVERYTHING UP NORTH)

 
LITERACY AND GOOD MANNERS (COUNT FOR EVERYTHING UP NORTH)

The giant bad ass Penguin (call me Admiral) stomps forth.
On the way he meets a basking whale.
‘Heh, Penguin, where you heading?’ asks the whale.
‘Call me Admiral,’ says the Penguin.
‘Admiral, where you heading?’
‘Where am I heading?’
‘Yes, where are you heading?’
‘North.’
‘Give my regards to the Polar Bears.’
‘Yes, I will.’

The giant bad ass Penguin (call me Admiral) stomps north.
On the way he meets a spoilt child.
‘Heh, waiter, bring me lollypop,’ says the child.
‘Call me Admiral,’ says the Penguin.
‘Admiral, bring me lollypop.’
‘Bring you a lollypop?’
‘Yes, bring me a lollypop.’
‘No.’
‘Give my regards to the Polar Bears.’
‘Yes, I will.’

The giant bad ass Penguin (call me Admiral) stomps, and stomps.
The Polar Bears wait on an ice cap.
‘Heh, Admiral, it’s good to see you,’ say the Polar Bears.
‘Thank you for your literacy and good manners,’ says the Penguin.
‘Come closer so we can shake your hand.’
‘I’d be pleased to.’
‘Sorry, but this may hurt.’
‘Ouch, go easy if you will.’
‘We’re hungry, please don’t take offence.’
‘None is taken.’
