That last fall was the biggest and the worst of all. Oh, Mr. Dumpty! How could you? Why did you lose your balance? Who pushed you over the edge, forever changing the course of history? Mother Goose? Alas, we’ll never know. This will go down as the biggest conspiracy of all, perhaps bigger than the JFK assassination or whatever happened to Baby Jane.
I suffered a concussion when helping third-graders ice-skate…one little girl took a tumble and pulled me over backwards. If anyone had a camera handy it would have made a great photo for your gallery…family still refer to it as one of my more graceful moments!
I have always been at odds with the Humpty Dumpty story. No where in the rhyme does it say he was an egg. I think he is the product of media speculation!!!

I don’t blame her and I refuse to accept that religion’s teach we are all guilty for their error. I did not eat the apple . I had pizza.

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall.
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall,
All the King’s horses & all the Kings men,
Had Ice cream & cantaloupe for dinner again
