8 Fairy Tales And Their Not-So-Happy Endings
by Stacy Conradt -
You might have noticed that I’m a bit of a Disney buff. This is kind of out of character for me, to be honest, because I’m not a huge fan of happily ever after. I like movie endings that are unexpected. After doing a little research, though, I realized that maybe fairy tales and I are a perfect match: those Disney endings where the prince and the princess end up blissfully married don’t really happen in the original stories. To make sure kids go home happy, not horrified, Disney usually has to alter the endings. Read on for the original endings to a couple of Disney classics (and some more obscure tales).
1. Cinderella
Don’t break out your violins for this gal just yet. All that cruelty poor Cinderella endured at the hands of her overbearing stepmother might have been well deserved. In the oldest versions of the story, the slightly more sinister Cinderella actually kills her first stepmother so her father will marry the housekeeper instead. Guess she wasn’t banking on the housekeeper’s six daughters moving in or that never-ending chore list.
2. Sleeping Beauty
In the original version of the tale, it’s not the kiss of a handsome prince that wakes Sleeping Beauty, but the nudging of her newborn twins. That’s right. While unconscious, the princess is impregnated by a monarch and wakes up to find out she’s a mom twice over. Then, in true Ricki Lake form, Sleeping Beauty’s “baby’s daddy” triumphantly returns and promises to send for her and the kids later, conveniently forgetting to mention that he’s married. When the trio is eventually brought to the palace, his wife tries to kill them all, but is thwarted by the king. In the end, Sleeping Beauty gets to marry the guy who violated her, and they all live happily ever after.
3. Snow White
At the end of the original German version penned by the brothers Grimm, the wicked queen is fatally punished for trying to kill Snow White. It’s the method she is punished by that is so strange – she is made to dance wearing a pair of red-hot iron shoes until she falls over dead.
4. The Little Mermaid
You’re likely familiar with the Disney version of the Little Mermaid story, in which Ariel and her sassy crab friend Sebastian, overcome the wicked sea witch, and Ariel swims off to marry the man of her dreams. In Hans Christian Andersen’s original tale, however, the title character can only come on land to be with the handsome prince if she drinks a potion that makes it feel like she is walking on knives at all times. She does, and you would expect her selfless act to end with the two of them getting married. Nope. The prince marries a different woman, and the Little Mermaid throws herself into the sea, where her body dissolves into seam foam.
Now here are four more fairy tales you might not be familiar with, but you might have trouble forgetting.
1. The King Who Wished to Marry His Daughter
What It’s Like: Cinderella, with an incestuous twist
The King’s wife dies and he swears he will never marry again unless he finds a woman who fits perfectly into his dead Queen’s clothes. Guess what? His daughter does! So he insists on marrying her. Ew. Understandably, she has a problem with this and tries to figure out how to avoid wedding dear old dad. She says she won’t marry him until she gets a trunk that locks from outside and inside and can travel over land and sea. He gets it, but she says she has to make sure the chest works. To prove it, he locks her inside and floats her in the sea. Her plan works: she just keeps floating until she reaches another shore. So she escapes marrying her dad, but ends up working as a scullery maid in another land… from here you can follow the Cinderella story. She meets a prince, leaves her shoe behind, he goes around trying to see who it belongs to. The End.
2. The Lost Childen
What It’s Like: Hansel & Gretel meets Saw 2
This French fairy tale starts out just like Hansel & Gretel. A brother and sister get lost in the woods and find themselves trapped in cages, getting plumped up to be eaten. Only it’s not a wicked witch, it’s the Devil and his wife. The Devil makes a sawhorse for the little boy to bleed to death on (seriously!) and then goes for a walk, telling the girl to get her brother situated on the sawhorse before he returned. The siblings pretend to be confused and ask the Devil’s wife to demonstrate how the boy should lay on the sawhorse; when she shows them they tie her to it and slit her throat. They steal all of the Devil’s money and escape in his carriage. He chases after them once he discovers what they’ve done, but he dies in the process. Yikes.
3. The Juniper Tree
What It’s Like: Every stepchild’s worst nightmare
Cannibalism, murder, decapitation… freakiness abounds left and right in this weird Grimm story. A widower gets remarried, but the second wife loathes the son he had with his first wife because she wants her daughter to inherit the family riches. So she offers the little boy an apple from inside a chest. When he leans over to get it, she slams the lid down on him and chops his head off. Note: if you’re trying to convince your child to eat more fruits and veggies, do not tell them this story. Well, the woman doesn’t want anyone to know that she killed the boy, so she puts his head back on and wraps a handkerchief around his neck to hide the fact that it’s no longer attached. Her daughter ends up knocking his head off and getting blamed for his death. To hide what happened, they chop up the body and make him into pudding, which they feed to his poor father. Eventually the boy is reincarnated as a bird and he drops a stone on his stepmother’s head, which kills her and brings him back to life.
4. Penta of the Chopped-off Hands
What It’s Like: Um…you tell us
These old fairy tales sure do enjoy a healthy dose of incest. In this Italian tale, the king’s wife dies and he falls in love with Penta… his sister. She tries to make him fall out of love with her by chopping off her hands. The king is pretty upset by this; he has her locked in a chest and thrown out to sea. A fisherman tries to save her, but Penta is so beautiful that his jealous wife has her thrown back out to sea. Luckily, Penta is rescued by a king (who isn’t her brother). They get married and have a baby, but the baby is born while the king is away at sea. Penta tries to send the king the good news of the baby, but the jealous fisherman’s wife intercepts the message and changes it to say that Penta gave birth to a puppy. A puppy?! The evil wife then constructs another fake message, this time from the king to his servants, and says that Penta and her baby should be burned alive. OK, long story short: the king figures out what the jealous wife is up to and has her burned. Penta and the king live happily ever after. I can’t really figure out what the moral of this tale is. Chopping hands off? Giving birth to a dog? I just don’t get it. Help me out here, people.

Labor Day Weekend 2008
Friday night went to Ogden to go play and hang out with Liz and Scott... that kid is so funny!!! As I'm laying under the kitchen table in the "clubhouse" being told the rules I had to laugh because that little girl is growing up so fast! She amazes me constantly and she was ON that night!! DAMN that kid had me rolling! We stayed up waaay too late (not liz, she went to bed) but the good news is that we beat Guitar Hero!! Whoo hoo!!! I'm a rockstar!!!
We head home Saturday after taking Liz to the park for a while (stupid hornets) and we invited jenny and mike to come over and watch movies on the "big screen" ya know... the projector... it really is like having a movie theater in the house .... its cool even though I fought against ever getting it... when I leave jon I'll hafta get one of those...
We hang out on sunday til its time to go to Brewvies for geek show... I tell ya what... just because you are a geek doesn't mean you can't be a little bitch... I'm talking to you Jeff Vice... you are giving geek a bad name. So anyway we are greatly entertained by Wrath of Khan .... hee-larious (you have your mothers ass ha ha ha!!) and we are about 1/4 into Empire Strikes back... keeping in mind that I would have been 5 years old when ESB came out and so I don't remember seeing it on the big screen although my parents reassure me that I did indeed go to opening weekend.
anyway...
We were having a great time and the rules for drinking were as follows for wrath of khan 1. every time Sulu said something that sounded gay(everything he said) 2. every time someone said khan(which they do. A LOT.) there was another rule, but with all the "khan"ing hell if I can remember. The rules for EMPIRE were 1. every time Hans tried to be suave, 2. every time Luke was whiny 3. Or whenever 3CP0 was fussy We were having a great time and suddenly the power dies ... :-p SO I've seen part of empire on the big screen ... I guess I'll just hafta be happy with that.
So I've got an open tab, and suddenly I'm held hostage... brewvies won't give me my credit card because I had an tab and they don't have a total. Shit. That sucks. You should have seen the storm that knocked out the power!!!! Holy monsoon batman!! I'm pretty sure that must have been been related to Gustav!!
Good news is that my car handles great in the bad weather and we drove to grantsville to see Amy, Seth and the kids.... I love those kids... they are the most awesome kids ever and always make me feel like a million dollars... they are GREAT kids and I just adore all three of them... we always have good times together!!!
So that's it folks... Good times were had by all!!!

I'm pissed OOOOFFFFFFFFFF!!!!!!!!
So I closed my blog down because I found out that my bosses were having the IT department spy on us and see what website's we are visiting. Well I just found out that my bosses ordered software to see exactly what keystrokes we do, it takes screenshots, it COMPLETELY tells them everything that we do on the computers at work ... so I will not even be doing so much as checking my bank account at work anymore ... so I figured fuck it... I'm not going to my blog at work anymore and I'm not doing ANYTHING personal at work, not even on breaks or after work that I may as well as open my blog back up :-p
I don't care if the bosses read this as that I already feel like its an entire invasion of privacy to put that software on the computers. I get it. They feel like the file girls are abusing their computers but it sucks that the rest of us are being punished. Whatever. Doesn't matter to me.
BASTARDS.
Really ... it doesn't matter.
hee hee :-) yes I know I'm a dork.

OMG!!!!!! ED!!!!!!!!!
ED!!!!!
Float plane goes down north of Bancroft, but no injuries reported
By Luke Hendry
The Intelligencer
Barenaked Ladies frontman Ed Robertson and three others are "really lucky" to have survived a float-plane crash north of Bancroft Sunday, officials say.
Robertson's plane went down in the woods north of Bancroft early Sunday afternoon.
"Everyone is fine and that is the important thing," said Adam Smith, a spokesman for the band, said Sunday night in an e-mail to The Intelligencer. "That's all the comment we have at this time."
Sgt. Jeff MacKinnon of Bancroft OPP said the crash happened near Baptiste Lake, about 10 minutes north of Bancroft and one of the North Hastings district's most popular cottage areas.
"At 12:30 p.m. a Cessna 206 was taking off from Baptiste Lake, lost airspeed and entered a wooded area west of the lake," Sgt. Jeff MacKinnon of Bancroft OPP said in a telephone interview.
He said the plane was totaled but all four adults managed to walk out of the woods and soon reported the crash.
"They got out and then called it in," said MacKinnon.
MacKinnon said police aren't releasing any further details, including the names of the plane's occupants, because the investigation is now being headed by Canada's Transportation Safety Board.
Sources in the area, however, said Robertson was piloting his own plane.

YAY!!!! FINALLY A BETTER PLACE
Seriously in a better frame of mind today ... ahhhhhh this is nice... enjoying it while it lasts.... yup.
All Summer Long"
It was 1989,
my thoughts were short my hair was long
Caught somewhere between a boy and man
She was seventeen and she was far from in-between
It was summertime in Northern Michigan
Ahh Ahh AhhAhh Ahh Ahh
Splashing through the sand bar
Talking by the campfire
It's the simple things in life, like when and where
We didn't have no internet
But man I never will forget
The way the moonlight shined upon her hair
[Chorus:]And we were trying different things
We were smoking funny things
Making love out by the lake to our favorite song
Sipping whiskey out the bottle, not thinking 'bout tomorrow
Singing Sweet home Alabama all summer long
Singing Sweet home Alabama all summer long
Catching Walleye from the dock
Watching the waves roll off the rocks
She'll forever hold a spot inside my soul
We'd blister in the sun
We couldn't wait for night to come
To hit that sand and play some rock and roll
While we were trying different things
And we were smoking funny things
Making love out by the lake to our favorite song
Sipping whiskey out the bottle, not thinking 'bout tomorrow
Singing Sweet Home Alabama all summer long
Singing Sweet Home Alabama all summer long
Now nothing seems as strange as when the leaves began to change
Or how we thought those days would never end
Sometimes I'll hear that song and I'll start to sing along
And think man I'd love to see that girl again
[Repeat Chorus x2]
Singing Sweet Home Alabama all summer long
Singing Sweet Home Alabama all summer long
Singing Sweet Home Alabama all summer long
Singing Sweet Home Alabama all summer long

SEVEN THINGS I HATE ABOUT YOU
Yes its miley cyrus .... shut up ....
Sha, Sha, Sha
I probably shouldn't say this
But at times I get so scared
When I think about the previous
Relationship we shared
It was awesome, but we lost it
It's not possible for me not to care
And now we're standing in the rain
But nothing's ever gonna change until you hear
My dear
The seven things I hate about you (x2)
Oh, you
You're vain
Your games
You're insecure
You love me, you like her
You made me laugh, you made me cry, I don't know which side to buy
Your friends, they're jerks when you act like them, just know it hurts
I wanna be with the one I know
And the seventh thing I hate the most that you do
You make me love you
It's awkward and silent
As I wait for you to say
What I need to hear now
Your sincere apology
When you mean it I'll believe it
If you text it I'll delete it
Let's be clear
Oh, I'm not comin' back
You're taking seven steps here
The seven things I hate about you
You're vain
Your games
You're insecure
You love me, you like her
You made me laugh, you made me cry, I don't know which side to buy
Your friends, they're jerks when you act like them, just know it hurts
I wanna be with the one I know
And the seventh thing I hate the most that you do
You make me love you
And compared to all the great things
That would take too long to write
I probably should mention
The seven that I like
The seven things I like about you
Your hair
Your eyes
Your old Levi's
When we kiss, I'm hypnotized
You made me laugh, you made me cry, but I guess that's both I'll have to buy
Your hand in mine when we're intertwined, everything's alright
I wanna be with the one I know
And the seventh thing I like the most that you do
You make me love you
Sha, sha
You do, oh
Oooo ooo
Lalala
Oooo ooo
Sha, Sha, Sha
I probably shouldn't say this
But at times I get so scared
When I think about the previous
Relationship we shared
It was awesome, but we lost it
It's not possible for me not to care
And now we're standing in the rain
But nothing's ever gonna change until you hear

Ummmm.. ok I'm not sure this is getting better...
My friend's got a girlfriend
Man he hates that bitch
He tells me every day
He says "man I really gotta lose my chick
In the worst kind of way"
She sits on her ass
He works his hands to the bone
To give her money every payday
But she wants more dinero just to stay at home
Well my friend
You gotta say:
I won't pay, I won't pay ya, no way(now now)
Why don't you get a job
Say no way, say no way ya, no way(now now)
Why don't you get a job
I guess all his money, well it isn't enough
To keep her bill collectors at bay
I guess all his money, well it isn't enough
Cause that girl's got expensive taste
I won't pay, I won't pay ya, no way(now now)
Why don't you get a job
Say no way, say no way ya, no way(now now)
Why don't you get a job
Well I guess it ain't easy doing nothing at all oh yeah
But hey man free rides just don't come along every day
(Let me tell you about my other friend now!)
My friend's got a boyfriend man and she hates that dick (and the guy!)
She tells me every day (woo! everyday now)
He wants more dinero just to stay at home (stay at home!)
Well my friend
You gotta say: (gotta say!)
I won't pay, I won't pay ya (woo), no way (no way!)(now now)
Why don't you get a job (woo - get a job!)
Say no way, say no way ya, no way(now now)
Why don't you get a job(oh yeah!)
I won't give ya no money
I always pay(now now)
Why don't you get a job (get a job!)
Say no way, say no way ya, no way(now now)
Why don't you get a job!
Hey that's something everyone can enjoy!
