    Once again it’s time for the annual Mount Perry Rhinoceros Rodeo. The entire town is aglitter with preparations for this gala event. Our intrepid big game hunter, Mr. I. Katchum has E-Mailed us from deep in darkest Africa about his efforts to find stock for this years event. His E-mail informs us he has about sixty healthy Rhinoceros ready for shipment to Mount Perry, Florida, for this years festivities. Naturally, this is good news for one and all. As always the event will be held at the huge Mount Perry Sports Stadium and Gladiatorial Arena.

    The live Rhinos will air shipped to the Mount Perry International Airport, then they will be kept at the vast, Mount Perry Game Park, until it’s time for them to be prepared for the Rodeo. While at the game park they will be allowed to graze peacefully on the many hectares of prime, verdant pasture land. We keep this land perfectly manicured just for the Rhinos. By the time they get here the grass will be sweet and tasty.

    The Rhinos will get a daily bath and massage by the Mount Perry, town Idiot, Yodar Hoopelhoffer. Yodar has kindly volunteered his time and effort again this year especially for this event. After what happened to Yodar last year, we all sincerely hope he recovers from this years mutilation in time to watch the Rodeo from the grand stands, instead of on a TV in a hospital bed.

    As he tried to give the first Rhinoceros its massage, the creature turned on him. The TV account of what happened to Yodar during the next few minutes is rated “R”. Viewers under the age of 27 may only watch if their parents are present.

    At this point, no one is quite clear on his motive for volunteering again this year. It is thought by many, the designation “Town Idiot”, may have something to do with it. Still, one must admire the mans public spiritedness.

    The residents of Mount Perry take great pride in pointing out, we use exotic animals in our rodeo instead of the more mundane creatures like horses and bulls. Of course, there was the time earlier on in the history of Mount Perry, when there was an Alligator Rodeo. We tend to avoid speaking of this event, never mentioning anything about it unless someone else brings the subject up.

    It took many years to convince the worlds animal riders there would no longer be live wild alligators in the chutes, and or hysterical fans expecting them to be ridden. It’s a part of Mount Perry’s history we’d very much like to forget for, obvious reasons.
