    One time two men were working for a king they were named Pat and Matt. One day the King was gone away and the two men were playing with a cannon gun that was in the yard Matt stood in front of the gun and Pat stood in the back of the gun and blew away Matt to the en of the world. When the king came back he asked Pat where Matt was and Pat said he didn't know "If he come home as quick;y as he went he'll be soon here"
