# 54 A fable
     A fable
 
  The fox and the wolf . . .
 
     So hanyway, this fox and this wolf were walking down Hollywood and Vine
. . . (oops! Wrong kinda fox and wolf!) . . . uh . . . were trotting through
the forest and the wolf belched.  "Sorry," said the wolf apologetically,
"Musta been someone I ate."  Luckily, the fox shot him just behind the
base of the skull, thereby saving us from another horrid pun like that.
 
     Did you ever wonder why you need a highschool degree to get into the
service when all the manuals are written at a 5th grade reading level?
 
     Can you imagine Hitler bowling? Niether can I. I'm sure bowling was a
lot of fun in Germany if you had a Panzer. "Ach!  Another gotterdamerung
gutter shell!  Fritz, re-load that puppy with a 55mm hollow-point.  I won't
miss this time.  The Stuka crews are 8 points ahead!  Then again, I'm pretty
sure a 500 pound bomb doesn't leave much standing."

     I can see Hitler water-skiing.  But only when I'm wasted.  Can you see
Hitler as a father? "ACHTUNG!  You vill be cleaning your room or you're
going to bed without torturing any jews!"
