Codie and the Catfish

I was on my way to school when it happened. You see, I never miss school and for me, playing hooky has an entirely different meaning! Well, I was scrounging up some lunch along the way. By the by, the Mississippi river is a great place to eat! and I came upon what I thought was a great big Seaweed salad. Opening wide for my first taste, snagged! my left whisker caught in a net. Yes, I know what you’re probably thinking, he’s still in school and he has whiskers? I was really scared. I for one, do not intend to end up covered in corn meal, sizzling in a frying pan. You know, I have aspirations. But, my mom says stay in school so I have something to fall back on. I can sing! Sure, some may call it noise but hey, there was Hootie and the Blowfish, why not Codie and the Catfish?
