| Once upon a time, when hillbillies were able to become US-presidents as well, someone in Brunkeflo got the idea to start an terracotta-figure-factory (we won´t say his name, cause nowadays he thinks this part of his life was very embarrassing). You wasn´t able to call it an real factory, cause working in it were only his one eyed grandma Eugiena Lee and him. Since Eugiena Lee only had one eye and couldn´t really see with that one anyway, her figures were very, very ugly. You wasn´t able to see if what she made was supposed to be a terracotta-rabbit or a hill of dung. Since no one bought these ugly figures the guy made them as a present to everyone so they would put it in their gardens. And since the people in Brunkeflo didn´t wanted to hurt his feelings they put it in the garden and didn´t talked about it beeing so ugly anymore. Maybe they even tried to forget they had this ugly things in their gardens?! But now there was a man which was called Fred. He owned a big dog and whenever someone saw him he went for a walk with it. On one of this walks he discovered his weird love for ugly terracotta-figures so every night he went to the gardens of the others and stole the ugly figures and put them in his own garden. Than some night the sheriff caught him right on stealing and he found out that Fred put all the stolen terracotta-figures in his own garden. So there would be justice the sheriff took all the terracotta-figures out of Freds garden and placed them in the jail. There he waited for the people picking up their figures. To be honest: He is waiting up till today, cause nobody wanted them back. After all from that time on Fred was only called "Terracotta Fred" and his story was all over town. So he decided to leave Brunkeflo forever. Rumours say that he is now having an Terracotta-Factory in Mexico, but some people also say he ended up in an unknown country called "Terracotta-Land"... |
