There’s a worm named Nate that’s been guarding the world since time began. Nate’s amazing. He guards the lever on a side of a mountain that’s always been “on”. Nate’s never let it switch to “off”, and that’s a good thing.
Though there’s never been a serious threat to the lever, he’s always stayed nearby to protect it and us.
In celebration of National Lever Day, people came from far & wide to invite Nate down from his post to join them for a hamburger at the little stand down the road.
In celebration of National Lever Day, people came from far & wide to invite Nate down from his post to join them for a hamburger at the little stand down the road.
Nate was thrilled and worked his little worm body away from the lever and down the mountain where thousands of people awaited him.
On a table in center of the gathering was a massive double meat double cheese bacon burger. Nate slid his way over to it, lifted it up & opened wide, but just as he was about to take a bite he heard the sound of the rear axle of an 18-wheeler cracking.
He dropped the burger and rushed past the crowd and crawled as fast as he could up the mountain. Everyone watched as they heard tires squealing and then grew terrified as the truck went straight for the lever.
Nate made it just in time to position himself between the truck and the mountain. He pushed with all his might and forced the truck away, barely missing the lever but saving the world. Alas, Nate was crushed against the rocks.
But you know how it is…better Nate than lever.
