History of My Father

My father, Corn Cobb, has had a long and great life. He is always telling us stories about the old days. There are many odd things about him that the average person thinks are odd, from his name to his pet ear trumpet. This is an abbreviated version of parts of his life.

My father, Corn Cobb, was an early member of the Loch Ness Monster Supolé (That is Loch Ness Monsterian for Comfortable Cactus Shrimp support staff). He often gets questions about his name, Corn Cobb because it isn't the usual kind of name. When he joined The Loch Ness Monster Supolé, he had to change his name. The only choices were Corn Cobb and Stinky Turnip. He still spends sleepless nights thinking about if he should have chosen Stinky Turnip instead. His life has been riddled with tough decisions like this one.

Another thing people inquire about is his pet ear trumpet, Elmer. My father was involved in the battle of the Turken Revolt. The terms of battle are rather complex so I would rather not divulge what exactly it was about. He was fighting and suddenly he came upn this ear trumpet clan. They welcomed him with there national Anthem "Bold is thy sight, but a farmer's life for me". He was riveted and was tearing up, when they issued him into there clan's depth. Soon he discovered he was a prisoner. His crime was "Trespass under nonexistent flames". There was one other prisoner named Elmer. He was a wise ear trumpet and together they devised a plan to escape. It involved a portable telescope and an ear wax remover. The plan worked and soon my father and Elmer were exiles together, traveling the high streets. They bonded and decided never to leave the Universe without the help of a cannon.

That is some answers to my dads never ceasing questions.

Hmmm... Yes, Well, I think that it would be unwise to leave the universe without a cannon!
