Fickle Local Toddler Discovers Shadow

Billy Crandle, a three year old from Bellevue, WA lived up to his hype this past Tuesday morning when he recognized his shadow while playing in his four foot by three foot sandbox, or as he refers to it, "sandy." Billie has noticed a second figure in the sand before when the sun is out, but this was the first time he saw how he can control the mysterious black glob. Moving one arm up and down like a tiny broken windmill he noticed how the glob copied him exactly. He became giddy and started jumping up and down, following his shadow with his eyes. According to Jim McClusky, the telephone-line repairman for the Crandle’s subdivision, Billy then lost interest by 10:14 am, only three minutes after his miniature decrepit windmill impersonation began.
