Thunder & The Big City
One Sunday morning as Jimmy and Thunder was dressed up and ready to go to their separate
churches. Chucko (the ape) let them know that on that particular Sunday they would not be going to church.
For they had to travel to New York City, to hold a meeting for the stockholders of Universal Pizza. At which
point Thunder started to whimper.
Thunder's Mother and Jimmy tried to comfort Thunder as Chucko gave him his chewable
psych medication. Thunder just said; "You all do not understand that in the big city they drive like wild, crazy,
animals. I've heard tell that at times they even make a lane out of the sidewalk. The difference with the crazy
animals in NYC, and the ones I see in therapy, is the ones I see in therapy are under some type of control.
In New York City they are under know control."
Chucko just sighed and said, "Thunder don't worry leave the driving to me. After all New

Jimmy, & Chucko went up to their room in the sky. Thunder got dizzy when he looked out the window, so
he lied down and went to sleep until the next morning.
The next morning, Thunder, Jimmy, and Chucko got up and showered and then had
breakfast. After breakfast they brushed their teeth, and got prepared for their ten O'clock meeting. At the
meeting Jimmy and Thunder each stood behind a podium. In the meantime, Chucko stood at the side doing
whatever they needed him to do. After the meeting they got the press together and passed out a press
minutes in which to brief the press with. After which they gathered their things together, as Thunder took off
his tie, and they drove home into the sunset.
