Talk:The Boy Who Cried Wolf

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Deep Space 9 nerd bit doesn't belong here. This sort of thing cheapens Wikipedia. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 67.85.180.106 (talk • contribs) 3 August 2005.

i rather don't think so. This "sort of thing" distinguishes Wikipedia from those antiquated, conservative and obsolete encyclopedias like the one you might have. --Plastictv 00:11, 4 August 2005 (UTC)

Plasticity is right. Star Trek is an important part of popular culture. The anonymous sourpuss is wrong in the sky with diamonds. Das Baz 20:04, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

Any facts are fine as long as it is related and is right. I deleted the one where they said "in some version the boy was killed by the wolf". I don't mind children's death in the classic fable story if that was truly how it was originally told (like how the early version of Little Red riding hood the girl was eaten), but I have never heard of the version of Aesop's story where the boy got eaten by the wolf. Unlike other fairy tales with no definite author, Aesop's story can be traced back only to Aesop. If the original version of the story, the one Aesop's told, the boy didn't die, then that IS the version. I don't need to know the version where the wolf eat the boy, or the boy grab a knife and heroically kill the wolf himself, or Satan come and crown the boy as kings of liar. Aesop's version is THE version.

[edit] the boy who cried wolf

could you send me the script of the boy who cried wolf because i'll use it for our play in school —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 210.213.184.114 (talk • contribs) 9 January 2006.

You can create your own script by using your imagination! Also, the actors who play the boy, the wolf, the villagers and the sheep can be given some freedom to ad-lib. Also, at the end of the show the characters can discuss what exactly is the moral: Never tell a lie, never tell the same lie twice, or save lies for when you really need them? Then have the Wolf who cries Boy interrupt and disrupt by crying "Boy! Oh Boy!" But if you really want people to send you scripts you should include an e-mail address or the snail-mail address of your school. Das Baz 20:02, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
