The story begins in a town called Whatchamacallit. The people who named this town obviously were very, very lazy. Everybody was a couch potato. The town Mayor thought this was such a problem, that he made a plan to ban all the electronics like T.V.s, video games, tablets, and fancy phones and replaced the time people spent on them with work and classes. They even replaced all the drinking fountains so they had to go to the well and get their own water everyday. So lets get into this story a little further.
“This is too hard” cried Augustus Gloop.
“Well then why don’t you just go complain to the Mayor then? I bet he would just love that.” said his sister. You may not know this, but Augustus has a sister that loves to be sarcastic.
“Okay, well just put a sock in it, okay? jeez.” Augustus was getting a little too hyped up. But Augustus thought to himself it might be a good idea to see the Mayor. But it would definitely be a risk, since the Mayor is very strict when it comes to the new work system.
While Augustus was walking to the Mayor’s Mansion something very strange happened to him. It started in his ears as a strange buzzing sound and kept going through and landed in his head as a searing headache. When he finally reached the mansion he had to wait a long time until the Mayor let him in. When he finally got to see him, this is what happened: “Well hello Augustus! I hope this isn’t another complaint about the big Work Law.” The Mayor said. The conversation always started this way. Augustus’ conversations with the Mayor were always either about the new Work Law or about why he couldn’t have a break.
About an hour ago, the local candy store was robbed! The burglary was not surprising, and the identity of the robber was not either since he had an obsession with sweets and his own name was Jo Lley Rancher. The Mayor found out during the visit from Augustus and it got him thinking.........
Anyway, back at the ranch, the Mayor had noticed that Augustus was not nearly as slim as everyone else, so he did the worst thing that could ever have happened to Augustus at that moment... he banned all the candy in Whatchamacallit! It happened like this. “Hmmm.” The Mayor thought to himself. Augustus was very fat....
“I have an idea!” exclaimed the Mayor. “You know Augustus, you seem like you could use a little weight loss. Why don’t I just ban all the candy? It would be for your own good!”
“Noooo! exclaimed Augustus. “You can’t do that! Why don’t you ban vegetables instead?”
“Because banning that wouldn’t let you get all your nutrition.” the Mayor said matter of factly. That was the last we heard of Augustus since he moved to a different town in Germany and his mother spoiled him rotten until there was a Golden Ticket contest involved. But that’s a different story.
