There’s probably a market for a book about neglected supporting characters from various myths, legends, and fairy tales. Here we learn about William Tell’s apple, but what about the spider who watched the ant and the grasshopper matching work styles or Rapunzel’s overworked hairdresser?
a little known fact is that William Tell and his son were in a bowling league. But all records as to who the sponsors were have vanished. So nobody knows for whom the Tells bowled. (I’ll let myself out.)

The kid in the back row turned green with Envy, and his mother will be a Granny Smith one day.

Well…I guess it beats having the kid bring in an AK to school; with the accompanying panic, over reaction, Police swarming the school, etc…
