You unlock this door with the key of imagination. Beyond it is another dimension - a dimension of sound, a dimension of sight, a dimension of mind. You're moving into a land of both shadow and substance, of things and ideas. You've just crossed over into the Mafia Zone.

Submitted for your approval, a young man hobbles through the streets.  He has been injured and isn’t far from death.  A kindly old man stops and helps the young man into his car.  He drives him to his house just outside of town.  The old man lets the young man recuperate in his own bedroom bringing him food.  The young man grows stronger and starts looking around the house.  The old man is seen sitting in his chair reading the Bible.  The young man notices great works of art, antique statues – all worth a small fortune.  When the young man finally regains his health, he thanks the old man and the old man wishes him well.  He even gives the kid $100 to help him on his way.

Two nights later, the young man returns to the old man’s house with a few friends.  They sneak into the old man’s living room where he’s reading his Bible again.  The young hoodlums threaten him with their baseball bats and knives.  The old man sets his Bible down, and reaches under his chair.  He pulls out a shotgun, and kills the first two.  The young man who he helped get better he lets live.  He forces the young man to go outside and dig a large hole.  Then, the old man forces the young man to throw the bodies inside and cover them with lye.  The old man looks at the ungrateful young man square in the eye while the young man has another bowel movement.  He kills him.

The moral of today’s story is simply this.  Never confuse kindness with weakness, especially in The Mafia Zone.

SINGERROURKE was again at the edge of his seat. The return of the Mafia Zone had put the greatest thrill on his face.

Brav freaking O i loved it. Im addicted to this mafia zone. What um What was that old man reading from the bible though?

I bet that foolish kid got the bat from SINGERROURKE, who is also nothing but trouble.

Katie grinned.
