Chris Mouse and Other Stories - in the style of the French Canadian Irritating Tales

by Papa Joe

�Chris Mouse Tree

There's a Mouse that lives in my house. His name is Chris. Chris Mouse.

I was telling him about all the Winter holidays people celebrate; Kwanzaa, Chanukah, Yule, Christmas...

"Chris Mouse! I wanna celebrate Chris Mouse!"

I said, "It's not Chris Mouse, Chris. It's Christmas, silly."

"That's what I said, Chris Mouse. I wanna celebrate Chris Mouse. How do you celebrate Chris Mouse?"

So I told him about the Christmas tree.

"Chris Mouse Tree! I wanna Chris Mouse Tree!"

So off he went to get a Chris Mouse Tree. Do you think he used a chain saw? Do you think he used a bow saw? Do you think he used an ax?

He used his teeth. Chewed it down. Set it up on his Chris Mouse Tree Stand. I gave him a box of tinsel.

Chris Mouse.

He took the tiny tinsel

and he trimmed the tiny tree. He took the tiny tinsel

and he trimmed the tiny tree. He took the tiny tinsel and he trimmed the tiny tree. Then he said, "This is getting boring."

So I gave him a string of lights. He strung the tiny lights on the tiny Chris Mouse Tree.

Chris Mouse. He took the tiny tinsel and he trimmed the tiny tree. He took the tiny tinsel and he trimmed the tiny tree. He took the tiny tinsel and he trimmed the tiny tree. Then he said, "This is getting boring."

So I gave him a bell. He hung the tiny bell on the tiny Chris Mouse Tree.

Chris Mouse.

He took the tiny tinsel

and he trimmed the tiny tree. He took the tiny tinsel

and he trimmed the tiny tree. He took the tiny tinsel

and he trimmed the tiny tree. Then he said, "This is getting boring."

So I gave him a star. He taped the tiny star atop the tiny Chris Mouse Tree.

Chris Mouse.

He took the tiny tinsel

and he trimmed the tiny tree. He took the tiny tinsel

and he trimmed the tiny tree. He took the tiny tinsel

and he trimmed the tiny tree. Then he said, "It took a ton of tinsel to trim this tiny tree!"

That's the story of Chris Mouse. I hope you enjoyed it

Dark & Stormy

It was a dark and stormy night.

Forty bandits sat around the fire light

The leader, the leader of them all said,

"One Eye tell us a story."

One Eye's story went like this:

A Long Long Story

A long long time ago,

A long long man

took a long long walk

around a long long park.

He took a long long nap

in his long long bed,

and had a long long dream about&

I Don't Know

I don't know when it was.

I don't know where it was.

I don't know who it was.

I don't know what they were doing.

I don't know why they were doing it.

I don't know how they were doing it.

All I know is: This is The End!

The shortest Story

Once upon a time,

there was a little old woman

and a little old man.

They lived on

a little old hill.

If they haven't moved,

They live there still.

The End
