When Buzz the Turkey Buzzard and Rufus Rabbit convince Rolfie Wolf to capture the pigs, it’s up to Hamlet to save the day. With an anti-gang message and run-for-your-life chase scenes, this new take will leave audiences with great biggity smiles!

  • Summary: Civil Mock Trial of B
    (INSERT NAME OF COURT) Judge (INSERT NAME OF JUDGE) (INSERT MONTH, YEAR) Summary: Civil MoCk Trial of B. B. Wolf versus Three Little Pigs ProsecutioN: B. B. Wolf accuses the Three Little Pigs of assault, conspiracy, aiding and abetting (assisting or encouraging), and slander. He says they tricked him into falling into their pot of boiling water to cook him into Wolf Soup. The pigs say he wanted to eat them, but admit they tried to eat him. They bully him, saying all wolves are big and bad, no matter how small or good they are. Their flimsy houses fell when he sneezed due to allergies when he went over to invite them to his party. DefeNse: The Three Little Pigs argue they were defending themselves from B. B., who destroyed two of their homes and broke into the third to eat them. They say B.B. didn’t visit to invite them to his party to be his guests; he wanted them to be his lunch. They learned early that all wolves are big and bad and that all look alike, so they can’t tell them apart. The defense argues B. B.’s favorite foods are all made of pig, including pig’s feet, bacon, and pork rinds; and doubt he has allergies. WitNess for ProseCutioN: Snacky Pig says B. B. tried to eat her for a snack, minutes after she was born. That is why they call her “Snacky.” On cross-examination, however, she admits her eyes were still closed, and she didn’t see the wolf.

  • BWTB Revolver @ 50 2016
    1 PLAYLIST AUG. 7th 2016 Part 1 of our Revolver @ 50 Special~ We will dedicate to early versions of songs…plus the single that preceded the release of REVOLVER…Lets start with the first song recorded for the album it was called Mark 1 in April of 1966…good morning hipsters 2 9AM The Beatles - Tomorrow Never Knows – Revolver TK1 (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: John The first song recorded for what would become the “Revolver” album. John’s composition was unlike anything The Beatles or anyone else had ever recorded. Lennon’s vocal is buried under a wall of sound -- an assemblage of repeating tape loops and sound effects – placed on top of a dense one chord song with basic melody driven by Ringo's thunderous drum pattern. The lyrics were largely taken from “The Psychedelic Experience,” a 1964 book written by Harvard psychologists Timothy Leary and Richard Alpert, which contained an adaptation of the ancient “Tibetan Book of the Dead.” Each Beatle worked at home on creating strange sounds to add to the mix. Then they were added at different speeds sometime backwards. Paul got “arranging” credit. He had discovered that by removing the erase head on his Grundig reel-to-reel tape machine, he could saturate a recording with sound. A bit of….The Beatles - For No One - Revolver (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: Paul 3 The Beatles - Here, There And Everywhere / TK’s 7 & 13 - Revolver (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: Paul Written by Paul while sitting by the pool of John’s estate, this classic ballad was inspired by The Beach Boys’ “God Only Knows.” Completed in 14 takes spread over three sessions on June 14, 16 and 17, 1966.

  • Poetry the Three Little Pigs by Dahl
    “THE THREE LITTLE PIGS” by Raold Dahl The animal I really dig Above all others is the pig. Pigs are noble. Pigs are clever, Pigs are courteous. However, Now and then, to break this rule, One meets a pig who is a fool. What, for example, would you say If strolling through the woods one day, Right there in front of you you saw A pig who’d built his house of STRAW! The Wolf who saw it licked his lips, And said, “That pig has had his chips.” “Little pig, little pig, let me come in!” “No, no, by the hairs on my chinny-chin-chin!” “Then I’ll huff and I’ll puff and I’ll blow your house in!” The little pig began to pray, But Wolfie blew his house away. He shouted, “Bacon, pork and ham! Oh, what a lucky Wolf I am!” And though he ate the pig quite fast, He carefully kept the tail till last. Wolf wandered on, a trifle bloated. Surprise, surprise, for soon he noted Another little house for pigs, And this one had been built of TWIGS! “Little pig, little pig, let me come in!” “No, no, by the hairs on my chinny-chin-chin!” “Then I’ll huff and I’ll puff and I’ll blow your house in!” The Wolf said, “Okay, here we go!” He then began to blow and blow. The little pig began to squeal. He cried, “Oh, Wolf, you’ve had one meal! Why can’t we talk and make a deal?” The Wolf replied, “Not on your nelly!” And soon the pig was in his belly.

  • “The Beatles Raise the Bar-Yet Again”By Christopher Parker
    “The Beatles Raise the Bar-Yet Again” by Christopher Parker I know what you’re thinking. You’re thinking, Parker, everyone knows that 1967’s Sgt. Pepper‘s Lonely Hearts Club Band is the Beatles’ greatest album and in fact the greatest album of all time. Nope. No way. I beg to differ. In my humble opinion, 1966’s Revolver, the Beatles album released the year before Sgt. Pepper, is the greatest. Why, you ask? In many ways, Revolver was the beginning of a new era, not only in the career of the Beatles, but in the ever-changing world of rock & roll. The world’s greatest rock band was beginning to tire of the endless touring amidst the chaos of Beatlemania. The constant battling against hordes of screaming fans, and a life lived being jostled and shoved from one hotel room to another were becoming more than tiresome. In addition, during a concert, the volume of screams often exceeded 120 decibels-approximately the same noise level as one would be exposed to if he were standing beside a Boeing 747 during takeoff. No one was listening to their music, and consequently, they were beginning to feel like, as John Lennon would later say, ‘waxworks’ or ‘performing fleas.’ Revolver signals a change from the ‘She Loves You’ era-relatively simple songs of love and relationships- to a new era of songs designed to be listened to. These were songs that could never be played at a live concert. They were creations-works of art-songs that were created to be appreciated and discussed-not to elicit screams from teenage girls.

Or at least they think they do. But I'll let you in on a little secret. Nobody knows the real story, because nobody has ever heard my side of the story. Officer #1: Name? Wolf: I'm the wolf. Alexander T. Wolf. You can call me Al. I don't know how this whole Big Bad Wolf thing got started, but it's all wrong. Officer #2: I see. And what makes you so sure? Wolf: Maybe it's because of our diet. Hey, it's not my fault wolves eat cute little animals like bunnies, sheep and pigs. That's just the way we are. Officer #3: Can we stick to the story, please? Wolf: If cheeseburgers were cute, folks would probably think you were Big and Bad, too. But like I was saying, the whole Big Bad Wolf thing is wrong. The real story is about a sneeze and a cup of sugar. 1 Scene 2 Narrator #1: Way back in Once Upon a Time time, A. Wolf was making a birthday cake for his dear old granny. Wolf: I had a terrible sneezing cold. Narrator # 2: He ran out of sugar. Wolf: So I walked down the street to ask my neighbor for a cup of sugar. Narrator #3: Now this neighbor was a pig.

  • The Three Little Pigs VS. the True Story of the Three Little Pigs
    Gabriella Samuelsson The Three Little Pigs VS. The True Story of The Three Little Pigs Have you ever read The Three Little Pigs and The True Story of The Three Little Pigs? There are many similarities and differences between The Three Little Pigs and The True Story of The Three Little Pigs. Let’s start with Three Little Pigs. In The Three Little Pigs it is written in the third person. Also in The Three Little Pigs The Big Bad Wolf purposely blew down the three little pigs’ houses. In The Three Little Pigs the Big Bad Wolf looks very guilty. The wolf wanted to eat the three little pigs in this story. Another difference is the Big Bad Wolf ended up on the third little pig’s dinner table! In The Three Little Pigs the illustrator shows the pigs buy the materials for the houses. You see actual pictures of the three Little Pigs in this story. The True Story of The Three Little Pigs was written in the wolf’s prospective. The wolf ended up in jail in this story. In this story the wolf tries to make himself look innocent. The wolf has a cold and sneezes, which makes the houses fall down. In this story the houses were already built. The wolf wanted to bake a cake. You do not get a good glimpse of the pigs in the illustrations. Finally let’s talk about the similarities of these stories. These two stories are similar because the two stories both have a Big Bad Wolf and three little pigs.

  • The Story of the Three Little Pigs
    The Story of the Three Little Pigs Once upon a time when pigs spoke rhyme And monkeys chewed tobacco, And hens took snuff to make them tough, And ducks went quack, quack, quack, O! THERE was an old sow with three little pigs, and as she had not enough to keep them, she sent them out to seek their fortune. The first that went off met a man with a bundle of straw, and said to him: 'Please, man, give me that straw to build a house.' Which the man did, and the little pig built a house with it. Presently came along a wolf, and knocked at the door, and said: 'Little pig, little pig, let me come in.' To which the pig answered: 'No, no, by the hair of my chiny chin chin.' The wolf then answered to that: 'Then I'll huff, and I'll puff, and I'll blow your house in.' So he huffed, and he puffed, and he blew his house in, and ate up the little pig. The second little pig met a man with a bundle of furze and said: 'Please, man, give me that furze to build a house.' Which the man did, and the pig built his house. Then along came the wolf, and said: 'Little pig, little pig, let me come in.' 'No, no, by the hair of my chiny chin chin.' "Then I'll huff, and I'll puff, and I'll blow your house in.' So he huffed, and he puffed, and he puffed, and he huffed, and at last he blew the house down, and he ate up the little pig.
