And for the Your Inner Rhino CLUE series, this wraps it up. We salute again Mr. A.E. Pratt, its creator, and Hasbro, which manufactures the game itself.
An odd part of this merriment is that Mr. Body, the Victim, is never detailed. We just need to find out which Player done him in. Of course, the best part is when you find out that Your character is the culprit! Bwahahahahahaha.
Rhinos spend a good deal of time in Libraries. We cannot read, it’s true. However, the smell of books is haunting. We appreciate them in our own way. Also, people do not seem to notice Us there, which keeps things calm.
We don’t think of Libraries as place for Villains to lurk, but what do Rhinos know?
And here We have another Houseguest, getting ready to make the house party Memorable.
Some weapons need to be requisitioned on the spot; they don’t all fit in one’s luggage.
CLUE. Ah me, yes.
Once We Rhinos get a project going, it’s hard to let it go…
When asked why this may be, We often respond, “We don’t have a CLUE.”
CLUE. Too good to pass up, We’re afraid.
Warning: CLUE can be habit-forming.
Mr. Anthony Ernest Pratt, b.1904, invented the game CLUEDO, getting his British patent in 1947. It was renamed CLUE for sales in the United States.
The idea is to figure out Who dunnit, with What, and Where. It requires Deductive Powers, if you know what those are.
Rhinos like all the little pieces and the map of the house. We like to imagine creeping around. That is about as clever as We get.
It turns out that it does a critter a World of Good to get out there and Ride the Merry-Go-Round.
Rhinos are not sure how it all works, but it makes Monday feel all bright and shiny.
The Tooth Fairy is supposed to drop in to leave a modest congratulation to the young when replacing their teeth. The fact is, We Rhinos are not entirely sure whether our teeth ever fall out or not. If they do, We must swallow them? We certainly do not keep track of them.
That does not squelch our instinct for merry diversions. We are always on the lookout for fanciful distractions, including those of the Readership. Especially those that relate to Chewing.
Thanks.
Scheherazade is known for her story-telling, spinning out tales of Sinbad, Aladdin, Ali Baba, and their many Adventures.
Since We at Your Inner Rhino are in a period of celebration, We felt this would be an appropriate time to remind the Readership of Scheherazade’s work.
Why not?!
(Also, anything that requires tassels, beads, and bangles resonates at Your Inner Rhino. That’s just how it is.)
Festivities are all very well, and Rhinos enjoy them as much as most critters. But there is an aftermath, which We often forget as We approach the party.
Cake is grand as it goes In, but what it can get up to Inside is worth a moment’s hesitation, ahead of time.
Our advice is grounded in Experience.
