Scandal-Addled Ovum Humpty Dumpty Hits Rock Bottom.
It was a
miracle. After his famed wall incident, culinary engineers did what horses and
men were unable to. They put Humpty "Max" Dumpty back together again. This was,
though, only the beginning of his journey. The group responsible for his
reconstruction, calling themselves the EGGsperts, began traipsing Dumpty
around the country on a promotion tour for their new chain of omelet shops. Soon though, as yesterday’s incident shows, the pressures of the road got to
him.
At 9pm yesterday Dumpty was spotted shouting and threatening to
jump. One witness reported that Dumpty went on a rather eloquent
diatribe about the American Heart Association and there unfair bias against his
kind. Another reported him characterizing vegans as “callow hippies in
desperate need of a good manning up”. He also spoke of his veneration for the
television character Ron Swanson, from the hit NBC show parks and recreation. Right as he was about to jump, his son, Thumpty Dumpty, talked him from
the edge. He has now left the employ of the EGGsperts, and is spending time
with his family.

Last Sunday morning, Max Carlton awoke to find his wife and two children abducted from their home. After several long days of searching, it was discovered that they had been made into a 3-egg omelet. Completely distraught over the loss of his family, Carlton ventured to the edge of the counter with the intention of ending his own life. While his close friends stood by and encouraged him not to make the leap, he chose to end his life on the kitchen floor rather than meet the same fate as his family. This is another example of a life that ended in pointless tragedy because of eating habits.

Huckleson, Rhode Island- The lead singer of the band, Egger, quit
without a moment's notice last night after their concert. Egger is best known
for the song, "Stop in the name of shell." Max Egg has been fighting
depression for the past two years and said the band was putting too much
pressure on him. "I just want to be a normal egg," he said, "I
can no longer be a hard boiled rock star." His bandmates Timmy and Tommy
were afraid he would do something drastic when he stood at the end of the
stage. Max jumped down to do one last crowd surf before he officially called it
quits with his bandmates. Egger is currently looking for a new lead singer to
join them for the remainder of the tour. If you are interested you can contact
their manager, Carl Toast at 555-231-1343.
