Was Karl Marx an exceptional bullfighter……?
My cousin Elmo tells me that he once knew Karl Marx. He met him on a job site in Gnome, Alaska, where they were offloading dead cod from a freighter that got frozen into the base of one of those sheets of ice that flow off mountains (Eu Claires, I think he said…) While the cod were frozen solid in the hold of the ship, it was evident they had been in an unfrozen state for some time before they solidified and became frozen fish sticks… Anyway, Cousin Elmo tells me he came up with an idea to turn the cod into food for Yeti and Yaks. Cousin Elmo lined up a big raft and two tug boats to deliver the product to Tibet (apparently the only place where Yeti and Yaks coexist) but could not find a captain for the tug boats. This did not deter Cousin Elmo. He set a course of 220 degrees and promptly ran aground somewhere north of where he and I got lost on that damned island, the yeti and yak food melted, and promptly became shark food, instead. That was when, Cousin Elmo reported, Karl said,
