Story 208

They Began to Sob

Bob and Rob were called “The Blob” and “The Squab” respectively and “
The Slobs" collectively.

They thought about becoming Navy gobs, but refused not liking their

would-be jobs of mopping ship decks with swabs. So, they started to
hobnob with the mob. Soon they pulled their first bank job. Caught

red-handed, they immediately began to sob.

In jail they would continually sob, realizing how stupid it was to rob!

Story 209

Father Bach

When the cock crows Father Bach dresses into his frock and puts on
his holey socks. Then he eats breakfast of either bagels and lox or

eggs and hocks.

Afterward he’ll walk a block to the dock of the loch to fish the waters
so chock full of rock.

Come afternoon he dresses into a smock to butcher one of the abbey’s

beef stock or a few of their feathery flock.

Then around six o’clock, he cooks supper in a crock, as he drinks his
beer called Bavarian bock.
