Liver Island ~ Chapter 1


   Here on Liver Island lived a boy… yup that’s me… no, no not him, the short kid with the buzz cut and the pants that are too big. Yes that’s me, always getting made fun of by the bigger kids.

   I live here on Liver Island located in the country of Jupplemack, an island that, coincidentally, looks nothing like a liver or even an island. It doesn’t even show up on the country map let alone the world. This particular country is made up of sixteen different islands all connected by bridges; one of them one-hundred and thirty miles long. 

   The islands go from big to small:

   Foot Island #1 - The first and largest island Timothy Paterson, random  explorer and founder of Jupplemack, set ‘foot’ on, hence the name.  Population 1 million

   Timothy Island #2 (boring) Population 170,000

   House Island #3 - Timothy apparently found a house on it.  Population 1, the guy living in the house.

   Tree Island #4 - This island has a tree on it; oh boy.  Population 160,000

   Dog Foot Island #5 - The island where Timothy’s dog first set foot.  Population 155,000 and ½ (don’t ask).

   Wal-Mart Island #6 - Mom loves that one… Oh yah, I forgot to tell you that I have a mom… well I have a mom.  Population 3 million… not surprisingly the largest population.

   Gilligan’s Island #7 - An entertaining and dumb name all at the same time. Ditto for the show.   Population 680,000

   Plank Island #8 - Timothy arrived on this island on a plank… the only, last plank that survived the wreck… Ouch.   Population 600,000

   Hardware Store Island #9 - Dad loves that one. Yes I have a dad as well.  Population 2 million

   My Island #10 – Timothy, holding the gun, told the natives “MY ISLAND!” and so it was.  This technique is very well-known among all other random explorers.  Population 43,002

   Native Island #11 - The island the natives fled to, also known as the secret island. The only island in Jupplemack not found by Timothy Paterson.  Population 13,000

   Organic Island #12 - All the plants and animals on this island are grown ‘organically’.  Previously known as Penguin Island, but since there are no penguins on it, they decided it would be a good idea to change the name before parents sued, and children cried.  Population 5,000

   Upper Left-hand Corner Island #14 - Timothy was a superstitious man, as are all sailors.  Strangely enough, this is the island in the upper left-hand corner of all maps of Jupplemack.  Population 8,000

   Downer Left-hand Corner #15 - Timothy wasn’t good at math. I say this because you obviously already know he was not good at grammar.   Population 4,000

   Stay Away Island #16 - STAY AWAY!  Population 1… the guy you want to stay away from.

   Liver Island #17 - The island I live on… and that was a nickel tour so you owe me a nickel, preferably the one with a buffalo on it.   Population 2,000

Thus Ends the first Chapter in our story.
