Shocked And
Blocked
by Stephen Philip Druce
People say
they can always remember where they were and what
they were doing the day president Kennedy was
killed.
I got talking
to an old guy in my local bar, and he recalled
his personal account of that tragic day. He
described vividly, lucidly and eloquently the
moment he first heard the shocking news that
reverberated across the globe in 1963 - depicting
articulately the moment he learnt that the world's
most eminant statesman had been murdered -
"I'll
never forget that day" said old Stan, "I
was at home trying to unblock the toilet with a
golf club and suddenly my wife shouted - "president
Kennedy has been shot dead!".
"Who's
president kenbaby?, and who's blocked the toilet?"
I said.
"I don't
know who president kenpoppy is, and I don't know
who blocked the toilet" she said.
"Why are
you telling me about this president kendaddy?,
and why did somebody block the toilet?" I
said.
"It's on
telly - president kentitty has been shot dead,
and I don't know why somebody blocked the toilet"
she said.
"How do
they know this president kenzippy is dead?, and
how did somebody block the toilet?" I said.
"I don't
know how they know that president kenslappy is
dead, and I don't know how somebody blocked the
toilet" she said.
"When was
this president kenspammy shot? and when did the
toilet block?" I said.
"I don't
know when president kensnoopy was shot, and I don't
know when the toilet blocked" she said.
"What
type of gun killed president kenpuffy?, and what
blocked the toilet?" I said.
"I don't
know what type of gun killed president kenstumpy,
and I don't know what blocked the toilet"
she said.
"Who
killed this president kencakey?, find out will
you?" I said, still trying to unblock the
toilet.
My wife
replied - "look, you can't expect me to
flush out the cul-shit - sorry Imean the culprit".
