I kinda fancy the old Grimm Brothers fairy tales.

I particularly hated the one about the dancing shoes- The girl finds some magic shoes, puts them on and dances her way out of town. The sucky part about it is that she can't take them off. She dances her way into the woods where she is saved by a woodsman who chops her legs off and makes her some prosthetic gams.

THAT is where I had a problem-HAPPILY EVER AFTER?

I got new shoes
I can dance!
I can't stop dancing.
It's so bad that I get my legs amputated.
I get new ones......

Yikes!

I remember that one, too, RICHARD! Could you imagine a telling a child some of those stories and then saying, "Sweet dreams! See you in the morning!"?

I think it was also in Snow White that in the end the evil stepmother is sentenced wear red-hot iron dancing shoes until her legs burn off. Goldilocks was eaten by the three bears and Little Red Riding Hood was eaten by the Wolf.

And on that note, PetTalk, sweet dreams! I'll see you in the morning!! :p
