One sunny summer day Mogey and Smush were out riding a bicycle built for two. Actually it was a bicycle built for one, and a much skinnier one than either Mogey or Smush at that. So Mogey was pedalling while Smush sat on the handlebars when they encountered the Elephant Man of New Guinea blocking their way.
Now they happened to be on a slender forest path and so their only two options were to turn back the way they had come or to confront the Elephant Man of New Guinea. Smush, ever the brazen one, chose the latter.
"Elephant Man of New Guinea!" he cried. "Yield to Mogey and Smush! We are no longer afraid of you!"
The Elephant Man of New Guinea turned slowly, a scowl etching his New Guinean face. "Well good," he said. "I hate it when people are afraid of me. And you can call me Aloisius if you want."
