A Vital Question
by Michael A.
Kechula
When
will the world end? I asked Swami Salami.
In about
3 days.
Can you
be more precise?
No.
Solar flares are interfering with the vibes I
receive from The Illustrious Poobah.
Can you
call him?
Thatd
be outrageously expensive. He resides in
another galaxy.
The
precise time of the end of the world is vital to
my interplanetary business interests. Make the
call and charge it to me.
That's
very good of you. Everyone in the universe will
be indebted to you for your fabulous generosity.
Swami Salami
made the call.
The
World will end in two days, twenty-one minutes,
and thirty-seven seconds, said Illustrious
Poobah.
He lied!
Three weeks
later, Ive got a long distance phone bill
for $740,387,821,492,184.
Id
appreciate if everyone who reads this sends a
donation to help me. I just need $328,727 from
every person in the universe.
Unfortunately,
donations are not tax deductible.
