Some urban legends are true.

You’ve surely heard about the 4-year-old boy living in Central Arkansas. Quite possibly you’ve seen him around town. If you’ve spotted him in public, you must have noticed the swooning women, helplessly falling around him. I’m sure that you heard the muffled sobs of grown men trying to contain their emotion.

I’m here to put the speculation to rest–it’s time that you know the unashamed truth. The rumors you’ve heard are TRUE, the urban legend is REAL! Here, published for the world to admire, is a photographic rendering of Harrison:

THE KING OF THE HANDSOME BOYS.

Let me say “thanks” to our friend Janet. She kindly loaned her glasses to Harrison for these photos. The King tries to keep his identity a secret, and he brilliantly donned these glasses as a disguise. Yes, it’s diabolically clever, but if you look closely, you’ll probably discern that the little boy really is Harrison.

Just today, in the back yard “creek,” he and his 6 year-old brother [more on the brother's secret identity later] slipped into another costume. In a stroke of sheer, unadulterated genius (!), they disguised themselves as Creatures from the Planet of Mud-Encrusted, Underpant-Clad, Backyard Streakers. It was really unsettling–I live with these boys, and I barely recognized them as my own!
