Short Story of the Month JUNE 08

Back in 1938 (or was it 39?) No matter, it was around that time frame, that 2 men were setting on a park bench in some un-named, minor European city. One enjoyed a pipe while taking in the scenery. The other enjoying the paper and the fresh breezed being warmed by the spring sun. Neither knew the other and it was random that it had come about that they were there at that particular time. ....

..Just then a mother strolled by only to stop and comfort the baby who was crying. "There, there." she said adjusting a pillow and turning the child, placing the pacifer back in its mouth." The man on the left said aloud to no one in particular other than himself, "I love that baby" and quickly went back to reading the article of some high court Judge caught taking bribes. The lady had returned to pushing the stroller, returning in the direction she had come, when the man on the left looked in astonishment to the other man and said "I BEG YOUR PARDON!!" The other man stopped reading his paper and just stared at it thinking to himself "No, This Mutherfucking Son of a Bitch is not Talking to me". The other man stared callously in the direction of the one "reading" the paper. The silence was a dramatic build of what the world was about to become....Then the man put his paper down and looked matter of factly to the other and said "I LOVE THAT BABY!"...

...The HATE and down right animosity burned in the mind and eyes of the other man, " You don't even know that fucking babies name! I LOVE THAT CHILD!!" He proclaimed spitting his words as he said it, clearly aggitated. The other man threw his paper to the ground standing up in his defense, "I LOVE THAT BABY!! I LOVE THAT FUCKING CHILD!" It was a shout heard all around the park clearing birds from thier roost and alerting others calmnly and silently enjoying thier day in nature. A constible was soon alerted.

The argument went on and on and escalated with manacing and threatening glares "I LOVE THAT CHILD! You dont even know its NAAAAAME!!! " One would proclaim loudly, only to be followed by the other just as loud if not louder... Insults were exchanged, threats were made. Each side very capable of carrying out such threats. Names were named. Identities were revealed. Sides were clearly marked.Names were taken.....

......Hours later phone calls were made involving others on each side. Battle groups were put on HIGH ALERT. Warships were re-routed. Salvos were exchanged on the high seas, Pilots and troops were assembled, briefed and put into immediate action. This was TOTAL FUCKIN WAR!!....and it went on for years and years, battle after battle. A surge here, a break in the line there. A TOTAL outright fight to the DEATH. Retreat was NOT an option on either side as the millions and millions of dead bodies piled up, mainly innocent civillians though.

AnyFUCKINway, the maimed and wounded numbered into the hundredes of millions....When anyone had brought up the subject as to WHY THEY WERE FIGHTING in the first place, One would scream out more as a question than an answer, in this case a soldier speaking in a southern dilect "something about the "Neggards..?" Another immediatly correcting the southerner matter of factly "NO! Its the JEWS!" In the corner a recruit quietly asked his platoon leader what a "Neggard" was, though the platoon leader couldnt quite say outright he answered anyway "I dont rightly know, I think its someone from "The NeggerLANDs". ..."Where's THE NEGGERLANDs?" another soldier listening in on the conversation asked while they all cleaned thier guns to a shine. Others said, correctly I might add, it was over 2 men in a park fighting over "who loved a baby that neither of them had ever seen before, much less knew what its name was or what it looked like, or wether it was a boy or girl, or its mother for that matter. But that was dismissed, as it was just too absurb to believe. Certainly they were fighting for HONOR, PATRIOTISM, and NATIONALISM and extreme LOVE for country..

..the bodies mounted and the occupants of each side sacrificed for the cause....Anyway kids This is how World War II was started.If you were like me, in High School they would get to the end of the Civil War in one school year and the next restart from the Revolutionary war all over again. So NOW you know, THANX TO ME (You're WelCome!) how WWII was STARTED and if you dont believe me, just go ask some old person, They'll tell ya! Go ahead ask your Grand Pa or Grand Ma they'll tell ya too. The Japanese even got involved crashing airplanes into ships and digging tunnels. ...go ahead ask'em, It was hell on living earth!

and in closing, I love that baby more than any of you fuckers. . So THERE....Got a problem with it?
