John Henry and Larry

John Henry called Larry to his office.  A large poster stood in front of him.
















John:
So you're telling me, you told Joe Derive of the Boston press...that the...ah...JUSTICE LEAGUE is battling Darkseid...for...what!!!!

Larry:
Come on John.  Look at it this way.  There is no way to PROVE that this isn't going to happen is it!  Hu, didn't think of that did you!

John:
No sane person would!

Larry:
Come on.  This is a deadly battle.  Even the Fantastic Four will be there.  I'm looking forward to a Thing/Darkside battle.

John:
Darkseid...NOT DARKSIDE! 

(John pressed the button. )

John:
Ben...get in here!


(Ben comes charging in and sits down on the floor missing the chair.  He gets up and sits down again on the floor missing the chair.

John:
Just...stay there...Ben.

(John pauses)

John:
Are you supportive of this superhero thing?

Ben:
That depends on the superhero.  If we are going to defeat Darkside we need Superman and Green Lanturn.  Batman is not qualified...

(John slams desk)

John:
Enough from both of you. This is a first place team...

Larry:
Last place...

John:
First place team.  I checked the standings and the Red Sox are in first place.

Ben:
Actually chief, you're looking at 2007's listings.  We..ah...didn't want to get you too upset but really, if you take the reciprocal of the number they are in first place.

John:
You scare me Ben.

Ben:
Because I did such a thing.

John:
No, because you knew what reciprocal was.

(John sat down and rubbed his face)

Larry:
I only did the right thing here John.  If anyone gets killed looking at Hawkgirl that could be great danger.

John:
Who in hell is Hawkgirl???

Larry:
Oh where do I start.  I'm starting to sweat already...ah.

John:
All right, all right.  Both of you.  There will be NO more MENTION Of the Justice League battling Darkseid in an alternate dimension or my name is Jason Gabbard.

Kason:
IT'S KASON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  KASON GABBARD.  How many YEARS are we going to do this!

(John, Larry, and Ben look around.)

Larry:
John this is critical.  Superman has not defeated Darkseid yet and Darkseid is the stronger of the two.

Ben:
Now just a minute Larry.  Superman has the entire Justice League with him and I'd give Green Lanturn, Supergirl, Superman and Wonderwoman anyday...against Darkseid.

John:
THEY DON't EXIST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(John gets up)

John:
There will be no more talk of the Justice League or Darkseid.  The game is OVER.

Ben:
Hey Larry, have you ever seen the Batcave?  Does Robin really wear that crazy uniform?

Larry:
Not really.  He wears a...

John:
ENOUGH.  Both of you back to your offices and get some work done before I go insane!
