Before He Was Boo-BuriedWe all know Boo Berry as the lovable spokesghost for General Mills' Boo Berry cereal. But since he is a ghost, I can't help but think about the fact that he's dead. Or more specifically, he is the ghost of a dead man. This raises a very curious question: Who was the man that died to become the ghost of Boo Berry? No one would argue that he's lived a rich after-life as a corporate shill, but who was he before that? And for that matter, how did he die? Slipping on a blueberry and breaking his spine? Getting crushed by a blueberry truck? Emphysema? This puzzle was likely to be a mystery forever... UNTIL NOW. Using the latest in forensic technologies (My friend Mark and a pencil), Thesneeze.com is proud to present a shocking, never-before-seen image of Boo Berry as he may have looked BEFORE he died.

Just wanted to let Steve's friend Mark know that I think he did an excellent job at rendering the live BooBerry there. But I'm sure he already knows that he's very talented. :O) Posted by: therese at

I'll pass your kind words along to Mark. Or, as he is better known, "Pags." He is stupid talented. I'm still waiting for him to make me my museum-quality, rennaisance oil-painting of Frankenberry. Mark, if you are reading this, that would make a nice stocking stuffer this year. Posted by: Steve at

Dear Steven, what I was wondering is this: Can you have your friend, Mark, draw an artist's conception of the Frankenstein's guy too? I want to know if he is also wearing a hat. I think it would be pretty funny if he was wearing a german style hat. Have you ever seen Indiana Jones? He wears that hat. I think that if the Frankenberry guy wore a hat like that, then people would be a lot less likely to think that he is a monster. Although, I reeally do think that he is just misunderstood.

Coincidentally, a Chicago band called Your Little Ponies wrote a song about the demise of Boo Berry. It is available for your listening pleasure at yourlittleponies.com. Posted by: Sarah at

I think a much more important question that "Who was Boo Berry?" would be "What's holding that tie up?" Posted by: Sleepy at

"Using the latest in forensic technologies (My friend Mark and a pencil)" was so F**king genius that I laughed so hard I cried. Thank god I was home alone. That would have confirmed her thoughts that I am crazy. Posted by: Tony Mc at

luckily i had the opportunity to meet booberry before he died and he told me of his hatred for blueberries. who knows maybe blueberries hated him too. maybe they got their revenge for his hatred. Posted by: ryk at

Loved the rendering. That's good detective work. Hey, what about the werewolf character? Posted by: Moonchild at

Am I the only one who's struck by how much Boo Berry looks like Alfred E. Newmann? Posted by: Greg Lescoe at

I like the format of the posts. Simple and straight to the point. I bet you'll be able to even do better. Write a lengthier write-up and show us what you are able to do.
