expecitng bobby turners endless protestations to last just about an hour, george brewster never thought to try to understand why the fire in the trees under the pyramid sent smoke all the way to uranus before the department deployed a general alarm way across petersburg's unfinished squares.
understand me, sister jane.
this is what i undertake to do for you.
reduce your stress
with bobby's permission
uranus doesn't care about the smoke
the end is not near
bobby went to see the patriarch and he got the word
"o patriarch, what is the word," he asked.
"jerusalem is being rebuilt on neptune," the patriarch answered. "they need a few good men."
"but how much are they paying?"
"they are paying the going rate. you had better hurry up before it's gone."
"forgive me, patriarch, but i was expecting a little more."
the patriarch shook his white beard.
"never mimd." he said.
quietly the birds flew away to the top of the pyramid.
st jerome approached warily.
the exhaust from the big rigs tooling down the highway made him dizzy.
try as he might, bobby could not remember the lady time .....
zero
under the apple tree
surrender was the only option
except in the most extreme circumstances
pumping his fist, st basil ran across the drill field to the smoking pyramid
"no one deserves this more than us, brother."
kaleidoscopic laminations in the midnight orange juice
"come along, soldier."
desperately bobby looked around.
"but what did you expect?"
the constble laughed.
st jerome had treated bobby the best of all the fathers of the church.
uncle bud, uncle bud, trees are shaking, uncle bud
when they got back to the hideout they laughed their bunions off
st pater and st paul gave them their blessing
in an instant the smoke had engulfed them
bobby ran
just then an angel appeared
because of the smoke he couldn't tell which angel it was
pitter pat the rain began to fall
uranus flared in the night sky
frankie had it all figured out
st peter just shrugged
the kingdom of heaven has been delayed
the joke is on but on who?
sudenly bobby understood everything
zeros are beyond counting
pitter pat the rain began to fall
pretty soon it was a downpour
then a monsoon
may 17, 1800.

frankie explained to johnny as they turned down behind the underpass that pittsburgh was ignorant ignored
uncle sam can't expect the invasion to empty all the undermen and bad uncles in an instant
"no but santa claus can"
"get hip to this timely trip"
eggs benedict destroyed paris now he thinks je can do the same to pittsburgh . bad guys just exhale when bad smoke blows their way.
"when you take that california tip"
johnny got out of the car. it started to rain.
"here's he deal. billy called me from jericho last night'"
"you sure it wasn't jerusalem?"
"no , it was jericho."
"jericho, pennsylvania?"
"no bud, jericho where joshua fought the battle of jericho - out in the sanddunes"
"i thought joshua fit the battle of jericho"
"no. he fought it, stupid, how can you fit a battle?"
"he fit it into his schedule. he was on his way somewhere and he fit it into his schedule"
"so where was he going?"
she was wearing the heaviest jewelry gus had ever seen.
now i'm lost under the tunnel we'll have to turn around
"i don't know maybe he was going to see somebody. maybe he was going to see the queen of sheba"
"joshua and the queen of sheba weren't even contemporaies"
"ooh, big word, what does it mean"
"it means you don't know your bible, man. what are we fighting this war for, anyway? you're no better than an arab the way you don't know your bible"

this octopus is hard to chew hoss
suddenly the french girl ran across the road straight at frankie and johnny
"please make jericho your undivided destination"
"they got to mean jericho pennsylvania man, we're in pennsylvania now. we'd have to cross rivers and mountains and stuff to get to jericho in the desert"
"help me, help me! madame is after me!"
outside louisville the iguana terminated harry's woeful hacienda
"perhaps madame can tell us what she wants with this young woman"
"she's my maid - was my maid - and now i can't live in the same house with her"
colonel oblonsky shook his head sadly. "msdame i couldn't help you if you were the queen of sheba"
the octopus outside louisville chewed the iguana in the best cage match in town hoss
"you'll have to get out of the way, ma'am, we are about to nuke this town"
"she was dilly-dallying with my husband"
"are you sure she wasn't shilly-shallying?"
"pay attention to him, ma'am." johnny interrupted with a mischievous grin, "he knows his bible"
"headquarters is on the line, frankie. come in, hq"
jericho beckoned like in a star in the west
"finish up pittsburgh and get on to cleveland"
"i hear you - tell billy it's his lucky day, we got a french maid here that;s just his style"
"send her down, then get on to cleveland"
"are you sure we're not going to jericho?"
"cleveland, my brother, cleveland, just get on up the road to cleveland"
