"I'm going to be famous!" Ronald shouted, flipping frantically through the phonebook. "Who do you call when you've discovered..."

...a hot pink, lime green polka dotted singing cat in the suer? I swear, they need to be more specific these days in the phone book. I mean, is it really that hard to put in te phone book 'Call this number for exoctic singing animals.' You know what I mean, Joe? Joe?"
"Ron, no one is going to believe that you have a singing cat. I dont even believe it!"
"How can you NOT believe it? The cat is right infront of you!"
"Yeah, it's licking itself. Wow, that's come pretty awesome singing."
"Oh, hush up. Okay, cat, sing. SING! Make daddy proud!"
The cat puffed up its chest, the cheeks became still, it's eyes locked on Joe's. Then, it opened it's mouth... and let out a big, long, tear jerking.... HAIR BALL!

...an oil mine in your backyard?"
Seeing as no one was around to answer him, he called the first number that seemed remotely helpful - the police.
Well, to make a long story short, after many calls, some by Ronald, and some not, and after many surveys and investigations, the government took over Ronald's land and built an oil rig on it. Ronald was given compensation and forced to move, and he never got a single bit of fame out of it.

...your life's work."
The television series The Flying Jester had a profound effect on Ronald. The adventures of Percy the Jester had come to an end for the season but they had inspired him to become a clown. The saga of the upwardly mobile peasant from Kumquatontheriver who rose from Court Jester to nobility set an example he had to follow.
When he could get no answers on the telephone, Ronald boarded a bus and traveled to Hollywood where the series was filmed. A week later he was knocking on the door of Trevor Limply who played the role of Percy of Kumquatontheriver.
"I have no answers," Limply told him. "I'm just an actor who plays the part of a Jester."
Ronald got the same answer from the director and the producer but he would not give up. Someday the name of Ronald McDonald would be known the world over.

...that you have red hair and really big feet, and that your name is Ronald McDonald, just like that clown from McDonald's?"
Sunny, his little sister looked puzzled. "Your name isn't Ronald McDonald...It's Ronald Miller. Besides, what would be so great about that anyway?"
"My name IS Ronald McDonald! Mom and Dad just told me I was adopted."
"But how do you know that your first name was McDonald?"
"That's the only way to explain the red hair and big feet."
He finally chose a number, and dialed frantically. The person on the other end picked up, and a voice said,
"You have reached McDonalds. Ronald McDonald speaking. May I help you?"

...a new star, or it may even be a comet! I shall name it 'Ronald'!"
Dawn stepped to the huge telescope and looked into it. "It's a sun, a new sun."
"Huh! If it is a new sun, then I shall have to mention YOUR name."
"That would be nice," Dawn said.
Later, when Ronald was interviewed, he was asked, "How did you know that you had discovered a new sun, Ronald?"
Remembering his promise, Ronald said, "It just dawned on me."
