The Ear That Won A Casting Show

The Ear That Won A Casting Show

A Story by Leslie Philibert
"

a satire

"
Ladies and Gentlemen, this candidate is one of the most unusual we have ever had the pleasure to invite to SUPERSTAR!. His mother died before he was born,his father was an alcoholic one-legged pole vaulter.The only positive thing his father ever experienced was winning a ticket for the maiden voyage of the Titanic. The ear suffered  a large number of amputations - FBR, full body removal- and apart from that he is deaf. But despite all this he will deliver a fantastic show ; he will waggle his ear lobe ( to a popular melody from Saturday Night Fever) for millions of T.V viewers,... We expect that he will win, so you paid free-loaders are expected to stand up and clap like manic sea lions who have just drunk after shave....
(Off-mike) Hallo Jerry, didn`t he turn up ? You left the box on the bus ? Well, he wasn`t that good anyway, haven´t we got a singing slug as backup?

Wacky, whimsy, short but sweet. Some kinda, out-of-this-world wonderland sweet.

Thanks for the kind words, I look forward to reading more from you.
Absurd and outrageous!--in other words, extremely entertaining.
Good job, Leslie!

I've always been able to waggle my ears. But now I wonder ....did they waggle me?
What can I say? I like it.
