Many years ago, on a Viking ship in the middle of the ocean, Mr. Retardo went to Turkey Viking, after receiving a call from Shortneck the vulture, and said, “Turkey Viking! That vulture called up and said he planted a bomb on our ship!”

Turkey Viking, flying away, shouted, “We’ll see about that!” Then he flew off to Shortneck’s nest with the bomb that had been planted on the ship. He said to the fiend, “Hey, Shortneck! Missing something?”

Shortneck said, “Hey, no take-backs!”

Then Turkey Viking dropped the bomb in the nest and, with a big club that he had with him, he hit the vulture upside the head, making his short neck a long neck. Then, looking at the delirious bird, said, “That ought to hold you here until the bomb explodes!” Then he flew off.

The delirious vulture then looked at the bomb and said, “Yum! That looks good!” The bomb exploded, sending Shortneck into the wild, blue yonder.

When Turkey Viking returned to his ship, he was greeted with cheering. Mr. Retardo said, “Turkey Viking! You did it!”

Captain Mustard Mush happily said, “Turkey Viking! Once again, you have saved the day!”

Then Turkey Viking said, “And I’ll always be here to save the day!”

The End
