Unlike Johnny

Unlike Johnny Appleseed, Louie Landmine was a real prick.
He went around the countryside, planting landmines.
Every so often, you’d hear an explosion. Another victim of Louie’s vile project.
Prick.
Whenever Louie got arrested, he managed to make bail.
Or, if the judge didn’t allow for bail, his attorney would win the case.
“Where’s your evidence?” he said. “Were there any witnesses? Anything to match his fingerprints to left?”
The jury would usually end up hung, or find him not guilty.
Until the court managed to find twelve of his victims to pack a jury.
They shot him at dawn.

  1. And what does my mind immediately jump to when I see this title? John 5. So you are going to get a Short Circuit fan fic today once I have a chance to write ti.

  2. Unlike Johny

    Sure it was expensive, each machine was worth about 5 million dollars, and to intentionally strike them with lightning under normal circumstances would be insane. The problem was that the first time Crosby’s invention had been struck by lightning we got John 5, and life. Unfortunately unlike John 5 these experiments were total failures. The ones that survived the process at all, and didn’t just become smoldering heaps of garbage, seemed to just be slowly burning out parts. The last robot is number nine, and it is refusing to go into the yard, something about being afraid, robot’s aren’t afraid.
