Hump day AKA Wednesday Story Day

 

 

It is Wednesday Story day again. So kiddies come close and Ole Uncle John will tell you a story of two idiots. These guys are continually testing the definition of sanity and intelligence. I have often wondered who is the most unintelligent and who Is the least sane. Last week we left our two boys where Billy had pushed his poor old father into the arms of the law by blaming him for the contents of the car. If you will recall he hid and AK 47 under piles of cocaine, the body of a dead guy and the carcass of road kill deer. Frank couldn’t believe Billy’s only regret he had to eat turkey instead of road kill deer.  So let’s pick it up right there.

Bank Job by John W. Howell © 2014

“Frank we should get a job done. I’m getting low on money.”

“That’s a problem.”

“What do you mean?”

“You have no car and no weapon either.”

“Can’t we use yours?”

“My what?”

“Car and weapon.”

“Billy I wouldn’t trust you with a baby stroller and a toy cap pistol let alone my car and a weapon which could hurt someone.’

“Aw, Frank that’s cold.”

“Maybe cold but sure is accurate.”

“Do you care that you hurt my feelings?”

“You have feelings?”

“Yes I do.”

“Okay, I’m sorry I hurt them then. Here take this nine millimeter and let’s go rob a bank.”

“You’re a real pal Frank.”

“You know it’s not loaded.”

“That’s okay. I wouldn’t want to shoot anyone anyway.”

“So we’re good?”

“We’re good.”

    Awww. I can see Frank patting Billy on the head at the end of this. Though this is looking more and more like Frank will be driven into ‘Batman villain’ sanity at some point.

    They feel strong because they have a weapon, even if it’s not loaded. Phew. No-one gets hurt. Good for everyone, and the job won’t get done again. 😀 😀 😀
