We recently got a letter from Principal Ripper at the North High School which featured some good news. After several weeks they finally got their high school musical cast. It promises to be a good one as they are going to produce FIDDLER CRABS ON THE ROOF, a story of a poor bait farmer caught between his family and a fishing boat built entirely out of beer cans.

Ripper explained that this is an extraordinary piece and the casting process was long and difficult. Sharkey Mae who has so often been out front, will now play second fiddler crab to Mackerella, a brainy student just in from out of county. For the male lead, Brine was passed over this year by Chroy. It was a difficult competition as each individual tried to break out from their defining cliques. And each clique is as solid as can be... For example, the live bait kids wouldn't be caught dead using flies or treaders... The hookers never come over near the netters. So it was nice to see Mackerella and Chroy break out of their group.

Principal Ripper prophesized that their little story would make quite an original movie, if you overlook the similarities to Grease. Either way, we'll be there opening night to see how our High School Musical pans out.

Oh, additionally our school won the fishing regatta championships as well as the Oceanographic Decatholan on the same day.  Go Wildcatfish!
