5.0 out of 5 stars Patriarch on Death-Bed- Amazon Community celebrates, September 15, 2007

By	The Patriarch - See all my reviews

HOLLYWOOD, AMERICA - A throng of mourners could be seen from miles around as the Patriarch was dragged off on a stretcher to Cedar's Sinai Hospital on Friday, SEPT 14th 2007. Where he was diagnosed with a couple of broken ribs.

"What makes this injury so life-threatening is the fact that the ribs are directly over the heart-piece and have all these little pointy parts and every times he laughs, coughs, or hiccups, his heart gets poked," said Dr. Goldstein-Goldberg.

These injuries are believed to be the result of a valiant battle. The Patriarch was infuriated with his "agent" who had repeatedly failed to sell his magnificent screenplay, "The Orb of Eternal Darkness."

"His agent(name obscured to protect the not-so-innocent) was...mocking him and talking into his cello-phone very loudly to an imaginary film director, 'Dahling' as if to mock him," said secretary Miss Jones. "Finally the Patriarch rushed him and attempted to snatch the cello-phone from his hands. When the agent's grip proved too tight, he held onto it with one hand and grabbed the agent's sock with the other."

In the end of this stunning battle between two demi-gods, the agent fell down, knee-first onto the Patriarch's 'heart-ribs.'

Afeared that he was already dying, the Patriarch could only mumble, "He broke my heart..."

While those who knew, loved, and respected this great man of our age are wearing black and throwing ashes on their heads there is a group of people that are celebrating this "Victory" with exuberant Bacchanalia. Namely, those who left nasty comments on his reviews. "Leading this angry mob of atheists, pantheists, and the otherwise moronic, is 'Gordy-baby' self-proclaimed Canadian and 'family-man.'

"The Patriarch's rain(?) of terror is finally bye-byes!" is Gordy's official statement and rallying cry.

These hate-mongers and bigots may just be jumping the gun as the Patriarch's ribs seem to be healing quite nicely with limited "heart-puncturage."
