. . . ever read SWEET LITTLE BEET. Does that fact disqualify this story from becoming a "Fracture Fairy Tale"? Let's look at the facts. The title character of this picture has a couple of sisters, just like Cinderella. Cinderella is a fractured fairy tale is her own right. Sweet Little Beet sweeps a prince off his feet. So does Cinderella. Sweet Little Beet likes to play the baseball for her sisters. There is no baseball in the Cinderella Family. Unlike that glass-slipper wench, Sweet Little Beet loves doing household chores, and can scrub circles around the better=known castle visitor. Most charmingly, Sweet Little Beet is not a gold-digger, as is that shameless incendiary hussy.

One of the better episodes. The guys are tricked into going on board a leaky lifeboat during a drill orchestrated by you know who. In addition to taking on water, they are under assault from the Andalusia, piloted by Peter "Wrong Way" Peachfuzz, whose remarkable story of incompetence is laid out here. The Fairy Tale is an original about a little girl named Little Beet who is continually abused and mistreated by her two ugly sisters. When the local prince (who just happens to be invisible) offers to marry anyone who can see him, the sisters head for the castle but return home disappointed. Of course, Little Beet ends up taking her shot with interesting results. Bullwinkle's Corner has Tom Tom the Piper's Son which is hilarious. Finally, we have the first appearance of Dudley Do Right. The Mountie is ordered to infiltrate Snidely Whiplash's gang but in trying to get arrested and drummed out of the Mounties, he can't do anything wrong. Eventually he has his day and the results are wonderful. A great new set of characters.

. . . a British duke, but the title of Jet Fuel: Part 21 refers to an "earl." Which raises the question, are dukes and earls two words for the same thing? The main reason that America's Founding Fathers, such as Adams, Adams, Livingston, Franklin, Adams and a bunch of lazy hypocritical thoughtless indolent plantation owners fought for their Freedom from the backward imperialist exploitative wrong-headed so-called British Empire was that no one in their right mind could rattle off the distinguishing marks denoting differences between dukes, earls, bishops, viscounts, archbishops, marquesses, lords, barons and what-nuts. This is why spies and con men often resort to the use of English titles to bamboozle loyal patriotic True Blue Americans such as Rocky and Bullwinkle.
