_______________________________________________________________________________





  Leroy was a very young, very special gnu. He lived in a wonderfully verdant

piece of Africa, where blue skies stretched oceanically above the mottled 

earth.  Leroy had vision.  Leroy knew he was more than a gnu, more than another

hors d'oeuvre for the savage African carnivores...Leroy felt this, in his 

heart, a heart which pulsed with the gamey crimson blood of the Wild.



  It was 90 degrees that fine December day.  Christmas was in the air. 

The starving nubian families could be seen across the veldt, preparing their

Christmas dinners, making their traditional mud pies and locust broquettes.

Leroy wore a happy yuletide smile on his bearded chin.  Christmas is a gnu's

favorite time of year.  Yet, as the hot winter sun fell slowly across the vast

powder blue sky, Leroy noticed a strange thing.  A little boy sat in his 

earthen hut, staring at the aluminum Christmas tree...the tree was unlit, and 

silvery tears dribbled down his sun-blackened face.



  'What's wrong, young person of the veldt?' Leroy the Gnu sympathetically 

querried.  Yet, to the young person, Leroy's words sounded something like,

'Moorrrrrf G-nerggro?'



'What did you say?' replied the boy, which words to Leroy, in turn, sounded 

something like...

'What did you say?'



  Suddenly, Leroy felt the itch of the wild, and all the yearnings of his young

life became focused on the fine young nubian.  Leroy pounced, molesting and, 

alas, killing the boy.  Blood and sex juice glistened in the manifold mirrors 

of the aluminum tree.  Leroy felt like shit...suicidal in fact.



  Later that night, the parents of the boy returned, their arms loaded with

Christmas presents, brightly wrapped and magically seasonal.  To their horror, 

they found their progeny stretched mutilated across the floor.



'This is a Gnu's work,' gasped the boy's father.



'A horny Gnu's work,' added his mother, tearfully.



  Suddenly, as if aflame, the once dark Christmas tree blazed to life and 

light.The parental types fell on their knees in stunned amazement.  There were 

no 

electrical lines within 1200 miles of the family's hut.  This was an

impossibility.  Yet, not only did the two adults notice the lights, but heard a

kind of humming emanating from the back of their home.  Father scurried from

the floor, and around back.  What should he see but a Honda portable generator.

And an extension cord running into the hut.

 

'Shit,' the amazed man mubbled.





  Now you may ask what became of the perverted, yet sorrowful Gnu. 

In oppressing guilt, he had spent all his savings (accumulated over the years

from various gnu jobs) on a Honda generator.  Yet, unable to afford fuel to run

the mighty generator, and in a gesture of total self-denial, Leroy squeezed

himself into the fuel tank.  Thus did the aluminum yule tree glow, and thus did

Leroy give the greatest gift ever.



The End.
