Harley E. Never, P.H.D. Tenor (mostly), Sometimes Bass, Alto, Contralto, Baritone,
and occasionally Soprano. (This usually occurs when I'm unable to
move out of the way of a hard-charging hog.)
OCCUPATION (When Not Glory Bugling): Animal Psychologist /Curator of the
Prestigious Box Springs Swine Institute, Museum, and Gift Shop at the
intersection of Skillet and Bacon Holler Road.
NICKNAME: "The Pig Whisperer"
BORN: In a barn....An actual barn. Every time I leave a door open, people
scream, "Hey, man, were you born in a barn!!?"....and I politely answer,
"Yes, as I matter of fact, I was."
SIBLINGS?: An identical (possibly evil) twin brother named Nower. We were
mysteriously separated at birth. Don't know why exactly...Uncle Roscoe
mumbled something about aliens. I am told by credible eyewitnesses that
someone who looks a lot like me has, on rare occasion, been spotted in the
vicinity of Cavity Cave, just outside Patchy Fog, wearing a loincloth.
ASTRONOMICAL SIGN: Aries, The Ram (Someone PLEASE tell me why is there no
Sign Of The Pig in the Zodiac?)
MARRIED?: No. But it ain't for lack of effort. Queenie Delphine, that
heartbreaker, is a major holdout.
EDUCATED: At Box Springs University (BSU), Class of '00. I hold a PHD (Pig
& Hog Doctor) and a CS (Certified Swineologist) from BSU's Veterinary
Vocational School. Graduated 2nd in my class. The other guy, Skeeter
Lackey, beat me out of the #1 spot by a mere 2 grade points (he finished
with a 3.2).
