[edit] Story
Mr. Dizzy lives in Cleverland, where everybody is clever except for him, until one day he wishes he could be clever because a pig and elephant take advantage of him. He drinks water from a well, not knowing it's a wishing well that will grant the wish of anybody who drinks from it. He has become clever, asking the pig, "What's fat and pink and goes Katishoo! Katishoo!" The pig answers, "Nothing" until Mr. Dizzy tickles the pig's nose, making the pig sneeze and go, "Katishoo! Katishoo!" Next he asks the elephant, "What's big and gray and goes Dopit! Dopit!" The elephant answers, "Nothing" until Mr. Dizzy ties a knot in the elephant's trunk, making the elephant want to say, "Stop it! Stop it!" but can't talk properly with a knot in his trunk. Now Mr. Dizzy is clever.
