Billy was proud of his ten pound weight. In his life he had swallowed
many minnows. Billy had one little problem, he couldn't see too well.
Once while swimming in brackish water, he saw something come wriggling
by. Billy lunged at it and it got caught in Billy's right eye. Suddenly there
came a jerk and Billy lost his right eye. Billy thought unto himself that he
would be more careful when he lunged again.
On another day while Billy was swimming he again saw something
wriggling through the water. This time he was very careful before
he lunged. Billy sucked the thing down and soon he realized that he
had been hooked. When he was pulled upon the bank, he felt ashamed
he had been caught by a little old lady with a strip of bacon at the end
of cane pole.
Now Billy lives in immortality upon the little old lady's wall.
