A puppet is an object, often resembling a human, animal or mythical figure, that is animated or manipulated by a person called a puppeteer. The puppeteer uses movements of their hands, arms, or control devices such as rods or strings to move the body, head, limbs, and in some cases the mouth and eyes of the puppet. The puppeteer often speaks in the voice of the character of the puppet, and then synchronizes the movements of the puppet's mouth with this spoken part. The actions, gestures and spoken parts acted out by the puppeteer with the puppet are typically used in storytelling.

I can't imagine children today finding a puppet show so absorbing

Stromboli is the evil puppeteer and showman in Disney's Pinocchio (Hamilton Luske, Ben Sharpsteen, 1940). His ambition is to make good money even if it's at the expense of others.
When he is first seen, Stromboli only appeared to be a man trying to make money through puppets though is also extremely short-tempered and adverse to humiliation as seen by an outburst when Pinocchio falls downstairs whilst on stage. He overcomes this quickly though however, appearing to show a soft, patient side and allows the show to proceed, however, this is later revealed to be a mask to hide is true nature. After Pinocchio and his puppet show proves extremely successful and nets him good earnings, Stromboli praises the puppet and promises to make him famous, showing that Stromboli is not beyond expressing gratitude to others who are of great financial use to him. Despite this, he still takes advantage of Pinocchio's lack of common sense by rewarding him with a fake coin for his performance while keeping all the real money for himself.
However after Pinocchio attempts to return home to his father, Stromboli is revealed to be an extremely greedy, cruel, sadistic, and violent man willing to do anything to earn vast sums of money and openly reveals that he will harshly enslave Pinocchio for the rest of his days to earn money and will personally dispose of him once he is old and useless by turning him into firewood, exemplifying his cruelty and sadism. He is possibly even more greedy than the Coachman himself as it is revealed he barely paid Honest John and Gideon anything for bringing him a live puppet. When angered, Stromboli is shown to be brutal and vicious, even threatening to smack Pinocchio unless he became quiet.

Kisah hari ini; Gatot!
#kisah menyebalkan di hari Kartini#
Kemarin saya sempat ngobrol dengan beberapa rekan guru senior, tentang peringatan hari Kartini di zaman dahulu.
Seru banget lho, dulu katanya di sekolah saya, tiap peringatan hari Kartini selalu diadakan berbagai lomba keterampilan dan kebudayaan seperti lomba berpakaian adat, lomba menari tradisional, lomba cipta dan deklamasi puisi, lomba memasak, lomba menghias tumpeng dll.
Sayang sekali, sekarang sudah tidak pernah dilaksanakan lagi karena katanya gak ada anggarannya! Hikzz...
Sekarang ini, hanya sekolah-sekolah di Kabupaten Jepara saja yang tetap setia melaksanakannya.
Bahkan pada setiap peringatan hari Kartini, segenap kecamatan yang ada di Kabupaten Jepara selalu melaksanakan Upacara Bendera, di mana seluruh peserta upacara diwajibkan memakai baju adat daerah.
Wah, pasti bagus tuh!
Dan kebetulan hari Kartini tahun ini jatuh di hari Sabtu, yang artinya saya tidak harus ke sekolah kecuali --kalau ada rapat--, dan rumah saya terletak di perbatasan kabupaten, yang artinya kalau ingin ke Kabupaten Jepara tinggal nyebrang jembatan saja.
Ihiiirrr boleh dunk, saya ikutan lihat dan motret-motret upacara di kecamatan-kabupaten sebelah, or nongkrong di depan sekolah-sekolah di sana, lihat anak-anak yang berangkat sekolah memakai baju daerah!!
Tapi.... sayang sekali.... karena hari Jum'at kemarin saya kecapaian, pagi tadi saya bangun kesiangan!!
*gak perlu disebut jamnya deh, malu-maluin banget soalnya* ^^;;
Yang jelas upacara pasti sudah selesai, dan sekolah-sekolah pasti sudah masuk!!
Untuk menghibur hati, ya sudah saya tetap ke luar rumah, bersepeda ke sawah-sawah untuk menikmati mentari pagi sambil mencari-cari kembang yang ingin saya potret.
Nah pas saya mau pulang, eh di jembatan perbatasan ada banyak personel polisi, satpol PP, tim paramedis + mobil ambulan.
Mau ada karnaval lewat ya? pikir saya.
Berhubung saya bau banget karena keringetan abis sepedaan di sawah dan belum mandi, memori dan baterai kamera habis pula, sudah gitu laper benget karena semalem males makan dan pagi belum sarapan, maka saya memutuskan pulang dulu sebentar.
Minimal buat ganti baju *mandinya?? ^^;;*, ngecess batu sebentar dan mindah isi memori ke pc.
Eh gak taunya baru 10 menit saya lewat, sirine mobil polisi dan ambulan beriring-iring lewat depan rumah saya, yang artinya si Karnaval pasti sudah lewat!
Oh nooooooooo!! GATOT --gagal total-- deh judulnya!!!
p.s. ternyata yang ditunggu polisi dan ambulan tadi sebetulnya bukan karnaval dink, melainkan armada sepeda yang akan melakukan tour Jepara - Jakarta dalam rangka memeringati hari Kartini ini.
Duh... tambah menyesal deh saya!!
Got a little sloppy on this one... originally had him wearing a cast on his arm, but it looked totally stupid. The puppet may or may not have been Weah's idea...
