Carpal Tullar

Carpal Tullar (sometimes improperly noted "Carpal Tuller") came from a place far away from where he comes from now. One day he prayed that the dog across the street would die. An angry and seemingly bloodthirsty beast (of no doubt brutal moral scope), it would keep him awake all through the night, leaving him to dream lucid, sweaty dreams about Sulfa Drugs, an embolism killing his hero in mid-solo, facts about Djibouti, and the elements of what would later become his as-yet-to-be-unveiled Exotic Headdress. "The Disher Street days are over," he wearily thought to himself.One month later the dog had disappeared. He never felt guilty and never looked back. But he knew that one day the neighbors would get larger, more powerful dogs. So he set out to make music. Knowing that the music would irritate the dogs (dogs hate music) he started playing. One instrument to another to another, until he became a mindless fury of tonal explosion. Exactly one month later another smaller dog (owned by the same neighbors) was wontonly attacked by a ferocious neighborhood predator with tiny legs. "It's working," he thought to himself, "It's working."
