12 aAnd a house,
13 bAnd a two-car garage,
14 cWith two cars in it,
15 dAnd an extraordinary confidence in the future of the world,
16 Because the Yanks were in charge of the world,
17 eAnd that's the way God wanted it,
18 As every Yank knew,
19 And would tell you if you asked.
CHAPTER 1391 In fact, the Yanks were very very proud of themselves,
2 Not just for outlasting the Great Depression and turning it into so much prosperity,
3 But also for all the other things they'd done in the twentieth century,
4 Including save the world for democracy,
5 fTwice,
6 When they could have just sat at home both times,
7 But didn't,
8 gBecause they loved the peoples of the world so much that they couldn't just sit around while the Krauts ruined everything,
9 hEven if the Krauts would never have had a prayer of beating the Yanks at home,
10 Which they wouldn't,
11 Because the Yanks were never intimidated for a second by the prospect of "Fortress Europe,"
12 iWhatever that was.
13 And that's not all the Yanks were proud of,
14 jBecause after the war, they had been kind and generous,
15 In spite of the fact that they could have set things up any old way they wanted to,

16 With nobody having any say,
17 kIncluding the lousy Brits and Frogs,
18 Only they didn't do things that way,
19 Because they were Yanks,
20 And good,
21 And democratic,
22 And hardworking,
23 And virtuous,
24 lWith very high principles,
25 mEspecially now that the whole slavery thing was taken care of,
26 nWith everybody in America equal,
27 And separate,
28 Which was the way God wanted it,
29 Obviously,
30 Because if God didn't approve of the Yanks, why did he give them the oA-Bomb,
31 Not to mention the pH-Bomb,
32 Which nobody wanted to mention anyway,
33 Because it was so scary,
34 Even to the Yanks.
CHAPTER 1401 Actually, in spite of all their success, the H-Bomb did worry the Yanks,
2 More than a little bit,
3 Because they'd had nuclear weapons long enough by now to realize that they were very very dangerous,
4 And could kill you,
5 And everybody else too,
6 qBecause the Russkies had them,
7 And would use them if they got the chance,
8 Which the Yanks knew for sure,
