The Rest of the Story:
1: Aren't M&M's just the funnest candy around? All bright and cheery and rolling along together. They just bring a smile to your face no matter what. No one can stay glum and gloomy when they are around.
2: Even ol' Glum Gus of Gloomytown has been known to smile when someone tosses an M&M his way. And Oh My!! you should have seen him smiling (although he tried to hide it to preserve his reputation) at the parade when all the local school children dressed up like colorful M&M candies and threw out little packets of candies along the route. Oh Wow...did they ever have fun. And someone sure knew what they were doing when they placed them in line behind the High School band. Those kids were some rappin, jivin, dancin fools I'm tellin you.
3: Why, it was overheard that Glum Gus even snickered once or twice!! And then, Oooh lordy, is that Miss Green? Why, I believe it is!! Strutting down the street like she owns the place, and sidling over to Glum Gus to plant a huge ol' kiss on his bald head. This time, everyone was sure they heard him snicker. And she just kept on working her way down the street flirting with all the old codgers. But by now, everyone was wondering who in the world it was under that green costume and those white go-go boots. This was turning out to be quite the talk of the town.
4: And just as quick as she entered, she disappeared. And then came Sheriff Yellow, and Officer Blue running down the street looking for that "wicked Miss Green" Seems she took off with Mayor Red's suspenders and he can't be seen in public with his pants hangin. Well, wouldn't you know, it doesn't seem like anyone actually saw what way she went after stopping to blow kisses to the firemen directing traffic.
5: And since Mayor Red is due to hand out the prizes soon, someone better find him some suspenders so he won't be the laughing stock of the county.
