Muley sings Karaoke: Lean on Me

In 1972, Bill Withers wrote a song that sums up how I feel about my friends, and so the same goes for Muley, obviously.  Please don't feel downtrodden!  You know we're here for you.  Ears to listen, shoulders and hugs.  Lean on me.

We may not be able to carry you, but we're here for you.  Much love, friends.

Best Pals - Muley the Mule, Buford the Dog, and Roy Duck!

So, let's look at some of the teams throughout history:

Laurel and Hardy
Abbott and Costello
The Marx Brothers
The Three Stooges
Muley the Mule and Friends...

Huh?

Muley the Mule has never been seen too far away from his best pals, Buford the Dog and Roy Duck. (And, who can forget the self-proclaimed unrequited love interest, Missy Mule?)  What made these three such great friends?  None could ever know; but, all it takes is that one little moment for something to spark and that's when great friends come in to your life.

One of the greatest things about Muley the Mule and Friends is that, no matter what their differences are, the critters look past their differences to what is on the inside.  They truly care about each other (yes, Muley cares about his friend Missy {who cares too much}).  Ultimately, they have each others' back, as they say.  What do you look for in a best pal?  Who are your friends?

Here are other friends of Muley's that will be making appearances in the shows as time goes on.  If you've been to any of the live shows at festivals and conventions, then it is very likely you may have seen some of them already.  Especially if you've read their comic strip collection.

Meet Roy Duck

We all have "that" friend.  The guy who is quiet, but when he has something to say you can't shut him up.  The guy who gets a few things confused or is easily distracted.  The guy who is your most dedicated friend and confidant and willing to do anything to help you.  The guy who is the ladies' man (in his own mind). 

And, in the MuleyVerse, that guy is Roy Duck.  He's never really been called a nick name (such as "Muley" is short for Muleton Mule, Jr.) and he's never been called just "Roy."

Ladies and Gentlemen of all ages, meet Roy Duck.



Yes, you saw the distraction: Shiny.  Also, what kind of duck is he?  A wood duck.  Not that he's a duck made of wood, mind you...

Of his roles in "Muley's Talent(less) Revue" and "SuperMule and the Cookie Caper" live stage shows, he said, "They really quacked me up!"

Here is a little more about Roy Duck:

He has appeared in fine art oil painting as well.

Meet Muley the Mule

Every company has its flagship character and so do we.  Meet Muleton Mule, Jr., who his friends call "Muley the Mule" or "Muley" for short.  And, parents, stay 'tooned until the end for an important note!

This hyperactive 6-year-old loves to entertain, and loves drawing and puppetry.  He...well, let's let him tell you in his own words:

LETTER TO PARENTS:
Leadership, by Angela Freeman

What is a leader?  According to entrepreneur Akhil Shahani, leadership is defined as, “The process by which a person influences others to accomplish an objective.” Leaders are not always those who are hired or appointed to be in charge of others. Sometimes leaders are those who are appointed by people who desire to follow in the footsteps of those who are influencing them. There are good leaders, those who lead or influence people to follow them and then share their successes, and there are bad leaders who influence people to follow them into trouble and then abandon them to suffer the consequences by themselves. It is important to learn to be a good leader.

Who can be a leader?  Anyone can be a leader, but it takes a very special person to be a good leader. A good leader takes responsibility for the decisions they make and the results that occur because of those decisions. A good leader looks out for the best interests of those who are following.

Why teach children leadership?  Teaching leadership to children helps them to develop responsibility by giving them decision making opportunities. Giving children a chance to make decisions gives them self-confidence and the ability to make larger decisions that can matter further down the road of life. 

How can you teach a child to be a leader?  Start by letting your child make small, every day decisions. For instance, allow your child to decide when to clean their room by giving them two different choices and explaining to them the benefits and disadvantages of each choice (such as Saturday morning or Sunday morning). After allowing your child to make small every day decisions, allow them to take on one small task and be in charge of it from beginning to end. Eventually, your child will develop leadership skills which can be used throughout their entire lives.

-----

What can YOU do to teach your child about leadership?  Choosing what's for dinner? Choosing a book to read at bedtime?  Choosing what to watch on TV (preferably US!)?  Choosing clothes to wear to school?  There are a lot of responsibility training things you can do to put your child in a leadership role.  Discuss what leadership means in your household.

Spread the word!

"Muley" in another language means "love."  You should spread the love as much as possible, so feel free to link to us here at www.muleyshow.com using one of the images below, or you can share directly from the album at Facebook (click here for the album).

By the way, "Muley" doesn't really mean "love," but that line sounded catchy.
