Arthur Brass

Arthur will never grow up, and nor would we ever want him to. It is Arthur's ability to be innocently fun-loving and childlike that makes him so endearing. Arthur is extremely clever and sophisticated. There is, after all, a very big difference between being childlike and being childish. Arthur is open minded, unselfish and able somehow to approach each new day with a spirit of real, fresh inspiration. That explains why Arthur enjoys life so much and it also explains why other people, looking at Arthur's life from a distance, cannot understand why he enjoys it so much. Those of us who know and love Arthur find him enigmatic, mysterious or even downright baffling. We can't help liking him, but nor can we quite manage to work out where he is at, where he is coming from, what he is up to or what he is in to. Arthur's tastes and preferences are what some people would call eclectic, others would term unusual and most folk would classify as 'just plain weird.' Arthur, though, is consistent in his inconsistency. There is method to his madness. Arthur is interested in - even fascinated by - so many strange, different topics and subjects because Arthur is such a natural experimenter. Arthur doesn't need to travel the world in search of variety. Arthur can wake up one morning feeling quite sure that he is one particular kind of person. By the afternoon he will be someone else. His personality will not change, his loyalty will not waver but his mood will evolve allowing him to explore, enthusiastically, ways of behaviour which only a few hours ago seemed unattractive. Thus Arthur creates a world in which there is constant variety and excitement. Boring people, who like to follow life's laws to the letter and stick rigidly to one fixed plan find Arthur hard to handle or even to relate to. People with a sense of adventure, a sense of imagination and, most importantly of all a sense of humour, cannot get enough of Arthur's company.PS I DIDNT WRITE THIS...
