This skill for that

 The Wellness Center



"I am starting to hate school and ...I ..hate being weak and it is so unfair."
Billy said.
"Boohoo kid" said Grrr, "Poor pitiful you".
Billy's head came up with a roar.
Smiling, Grrr said, "That is more like it son, we are rex .
We roar at life not cry about it." 
Billy. "I know that is true Mr. Grrr and I want to roar but the boys.."
"Listen son, I am going to sign you up in my son's Dino-karate class, is will be a lot of very hard work Sensi Godzilla is a very serious dino, but if you do the work, NO ONE is EVER going to step on your tail for fun again.  It will take about a year for you to get good and .." Grrr said..  "A year!!!   But Mr. Grrr what..I mean a year?"
"Not at problem kid, said Grrr, tossing Billy a button. Wear that on your coat."..the button read:




I AM A FRIEND OF GRRR REX...YOU GOT A PROBLEM WITH THAT?

"Sensi Godzilla will tell you when it is time to return it to me." said Grrr.

"Ahh..Mr. Grrr. we...we don't have a lot of money, since the volcano got popa..mom works but."
"Kid, said Grrr, I see from your file that you have been taking piano for 8 years? "
"Yes, Mom is a piano teacher  but.."
"Son. eight years is a long time, you any good?"  Mr. Grrr, I played two professional shows.."I", said Billy with pride, "am very good."
"So you should be able to teach a kid just starting?" Asked Grrr.
"Sure, I offered to teach the kids at school ...but.." said Billy.
"Excuse me kid, I have to make a phone call." Grrr stepped out of his office and returned several minutes later.
"Well, kid, Sensi Godzilla , wants his son to learn piano, ...you teach his son and in exchange Sensi Godzilla will teach you..deal?"
"Yes, oh, yes DEAL" said a overjoyed Billy. "I won't let your down Mr. Grrrr."

Eat and run???

 Gretta is gonna be mad or there goes Grrr's Diet.


Bob and Grrr were out for a morning run and Bob pulled a bit ahead. 
Now this was a tough neighborhood and four guys ran up to Bob.
"Hey, pal", said a guy with a mean look,” ya gotta buck i could borrow?”
“Not on me friend.." Bob replied.
"My pal coming around the corner has our breakfast money, but I would not bother him, if I were you, he gets                                                                                                                                                                                                           
Unhappy, if people bother him while he is running.”
"Oh, he get's unhappy gee, that is too bad.” The Mugger said as he smiled at his friends.
About two minutes later there was a ROAR and several screams.
As Grrr catches up to Bob, he said "Hey, pal, not a word to Stef or Gretta OK? She will bust my tail for eating too much. But you know" waste not want not” said a Pius Grrr. : )
"The secret is safe with me buddy, but you better brush before the wives see us, you have half a leg stuck between your fangs"

Back at work....

 


Back At Work.

As he walked down the corridor of "The Personal Integration and Wellness Center," with his white coat on, Grrr thought about the cases that he would see today.

Most of them, were not too interesting but there was one that he found inviting.

There was a brontosaurus named Bernard who seemed to have problems eating leaves.
As Grrr walked into his office he saw Bernard waiting.

"Good morning young fellow". He said. "How can I help you this morning?"
 "I don't know Dr."said Bernard.  "I was just thinking, you know, what what if the leaves.. I mean what if the leaves are polluted?
How would we know? I haven't been able to eat for days !
I don't know what to do.  The air ... what about the volcano.. What about global warming and the new Ice Age?
My professor at Dino College said that we should be aware and listed all the things in the going wrong.
I don't know what to do!"

"Humm."..said Grrr. "Is there anything else my boy?"
"Well Dr.", said Bernard "Every time I look at TV it appears that there's one crisis after another:
 the economy is bad the weather is changing satellites may fall from the sky is very frightening."
Humm. Is there anything else?
"Well," said Bernard. "I don't know if life is worth living. Sometimes I'm so confused."
Rising from behind his desk, Grrr said. "Come with me."
A few minutes later Grrr and his  nervous patient were in a clearing in the jungle in front of the wellness center.
 Advancing to his full to T-Rex  height and smiling with a mouthful of six-inch serrated fangs, Grrr said to Bernard "If I catch you before you get to the other side of the clearing you are lunch.
 I will give you 10 seconds head start."



Bernard looked at Grrr as if he were kidding, but one roar and Bernard was fleeing  across the clearing. Grrr walked up to Bernard, as  he, Bernard was trying to climb a tree not an easy thing for a bronto to do.

"Well, my boy ".said Grrr. "Still think that you have nothing to live for?"
"No  omg  no!!.  said Bernard "Please don't eat me".
"Why not?" said Grrr. " You said you had nothing to live for."
"Because I want to stay alive, I  here are many things I want to do".

"Do you still feel that life has no meaning?" Asked Grrr
"Why... why no".  said Bernard. .."Does that mean I am cured Dr.?"
 "Yes. Go out and enjoy life my son and pay no attention to those silly beings that make a living selling fear."

Back to the job

 Grrr and Bob were sitting around the garage just hanging out when the phone rang. Grrr being closer picked it up. "Grrr here wanta ya need?"  

"What..I   but I  Now? but pal I..what?  I know I know ... look ok but just till the flu season is over and I get a shield like Bob has.,,Ok Ok .

"Who was that pal?" Bob asked when Grrr hung the phone up. "It was Dr. H." The duckbill brother in law? asked Bob

"Yeah, seems half the staff at the "Wellness Center" that Doc runs is out. Either on vacation or sick and he needs help bad. Lots  of beings cannot take being locked down."

"I like it my self. Lots of time to read and think  and since the girls discovered on line shopping, we dont even have to go to the mall"  replied Bob

Yeah, it does have its points ole ape. But it seems that not all beings see it that way and well Dr H is family. so. said Grrr.

Timmy Rex part ll

 "I tell ya pal this is brilliant. I looked at your human  TV and every one loves a being named Timmy. Why even to say that ya dont..I mean no one would even think to say that they dont like him. I could walk down the block and bite a Bronto's head off and they would blame the Bronto."

"Come on pal! humans are not that dumb. I mean ya are still a T Rex and....." said Bob

"Nope" Replied Grrr. " I am Timmy to the public and if you dont want to be a hater pal ya better remember that."

" Buddy just how dumb to ya think humans are?"   asked an annoyed Bob.

"After seeing human politics for the last month or so. Ya gotta ask?"




Timmy Rex! part 1

 "Pal. Are you ok? You have come up with some strange ideas but this?" Said Bob to Grrr as they met in the "Lair" in the swamp.

"Hey pal this is perfect. Ya see us T Rex have gotten a lot of bad PR of late and as that English guy, you know , the guy who wrote Henry V kinda said it is all in the name."Replied Grrr.

"Perhaps if you stopped or slowed down a bit tearing other beings to bits?" Asked Bob

"Naw.  A rex gotta eat.  Nope. This is the thing!Timmy Rex. Who could say anything bad  about a dino named Timmy"?
