Fleas I have known

I used to carry a small match box around in a shirt pocket and tell people my pet flea, Itchy, lived in it. Itchy was a member of a flea circus and did a high wire act along with acrobatics and the flying trapeze. I would tell people that Itchy lost a leg when he fell from the high wire... so he had a wooden leg made from a splinter. Itchy was married to a girl flea named Kitchy and they had a son named Koo. They developed a trapeze act where they tossed Koo around from trapeze to trapeze. The act was billed as Itchy, Kitchy, Koo. Adults were not too impressed with the group, but babies and little kids thought they were hilarious.
