9 aAnd dances up a storm at the Ritz,
10 Which everyone will get a big kick out of,
11 Forever,
12 Or at least until people start liking T-shirts better than tails.
CHAPTER 291 There will also be a bunch of comedies during the Great Depression,
2 Which will have hilarious stars like the Marx Brothers,
3 Who will make a lot of very funny movies,
4 bIncluding one called 'Duckfeathers,'
5 Which will be all about how csilly war is,
6 dWith a lot of interchangeable parts played by Groucho and Chico and Harpo and Carlo,
7 Not to mention a lot of jokes about fascism,
8 eWhich is very very funny,
9 Especially when fCharlie Chaplin is playing the dictator,
10 And trying to keep the globe away from the Marxes,
11 Who are just all over the place,
12 Including the comic opera,
13 And the gracetrack,
14 And everywhere else too,
15 Not to mention the ridiculous matron played by hMargaret Dumont,
16 Who has Groucho all over the place,
17 Which explains why his back is permanently bent out of shape,
18 iEven though the Hays office will never be able to prove it,
19 Which shows why the name Marx will become practically a synonym for "genius."

CHAPTER 301 But there's more than one way to get away from real life,
2 Which is why there will also be monster movies,
3 jBecause there have always been things that go bump in the night,
4 kAnd dark things that live inside everybody's nightmares,
5 lIncluding things so dark and evil that Hollywood will have to go all the way to Europe to find actors who can play them,
6 Like Transylvania,
7 mWhich is where a lot of the worst nightmares come from,
8 nSuch as monsters called vampires, who suck the blood of virgins and can only be killed by a wooden stake through the heart,
9 Which will be played by oBela Lugosi,
10 In movies like 'Dracula Meets Frankenstein's Wolfman,'
11 pWhere there are terrible things going on in the qcastle,
12 rSo that the poor villagers have to sleep with their pitchforks under their pillow,
13 Just in case,
14 sBecause when the moon is full, Bela will start attacking the tender white necks of tvirgins,
15 Which is the signal for all the villagers to run to the castle gates with uflaming torches and pitchforks,
16 vAnd make a gigantic ruckus,
17 Even though that won't even faze Bela,
18 wWho can go anywhere anytime he wants,
