the Excitable boy







Jimmy had always been an excitable boy, curious about every single thing and running everywhere he went. He was also prone to sharing whatever was on his ind ...in fact, sometimes he used his outside voice even when he was in the house!

One day, his parents decided they really didn't like him very much. In fact, they couldn't stand him anymore. So late that night, they had a Talk. By the time the Conan credits rolled, they had narrowed their options down to either an 'accident' on the basement stairs or putting him on medication.

Jimmy's dad told his mom that if ten years of JonBenét Ramsey had taught him anything, it was that even little bodies were a bitch and a half, so why not try him on the kiddy coke and see what happened. "It's a no lose" he reminded her, "the stairs will always be there of we need them".

Six months later, Jimmy was a new boy!

Now, Jimmy sat very still and the Ritalin did all the running, from the top of his head to the tip of his toes. Everything was fine, even if he didn't remember who this weird lady was, or why she was so stoked about showing him her dumb picture of an old hippie.
