What are the cbances Mr. Specklesup knows who John Lotterpaw is anymore than you do? Afterall, he just pulls out random assignments from that dumb teacher's handbook. Making it up will definately be more interesting.

Once upon a time there was a little lupe puppy in the Lotterpaw family. It was during a nice October morning that he spoke his first word - 'mama'. Little did he know it was the beggining of a life-long career...

You're having fun already! Let's see what to put in the childhood-

In fact, young John was very slow with learning words. But when he did discover the meaning on one, he would be in a delight over it for days. Yet by the time he was old enough to go to school, he couldn't speak nearly as well as the other kids. He was teased and harassed by them because he was different, and in their eyes stupid. It is not a conisidence that the only words John Lotterpaw learned in kindergarden were 'dumbo', 'no-tail', and other negative terms.

You are really getting involved in your own version of John Lotterpaw. In fact, you feel like you might just be living in his shoes right now...
