THE TRUTH By Mark Loothe On January 19,1858, Charolotte Bean found her son, Jimmy Bean, eating breakfast at the kitchen table without ears! He had had ears last night but where did they go?! Scientists are still trying to figure out what had happened to little Jimmy.

It doesn't explain much but it reveals.. stop backing away! I won't hurt you, I'm helping you.Now do you want to know who steals your ears or not?Well to bad, I'm telling you.The thing that steals your ears is a...//Nincompoop//.NO! Not like a wingnut person!The Nincompoop has a curly tail and a fat body.Yes, like a pig.Except it __collects__ dirty things and in this case your ears. When you don't wash behind your ears, the Nincompoop comes into your room or wherever your sleepings and swipes your ears. How does he get them off your head?Good question!Well, long ago when the Nincompoop was just a myth, people said that the he had magical powers given to him by a dark witch.So all he has to do is click his heels and say "I want to go home"and poof your ears and the nincompoop are gone.That's also how the movie "Wizard Of Oz" got started.Your're giving me that look again.If you don't believe me ask Nora Doofenshmirt from Grass,Greece.Yes, thats a real country. No, I wouldn't lie.Her ears were stolen by the Nincompoop when her mother specificly told her to wash behind her ears and she refused. That night she lost her ears and is now in physical therapy. Now do you to return to your parents or not?Good.Bipity Boppaty Boo!No! I did not steal it from the fairy godmother! Ok young man, just step through this door and you'll be back in your room.Wait, one last thing before you leave, always remember to wash behind your ears.
