Barber Bob Versus Baker Billy - 1999

One day Barber Bob woke up on the wrong side of the bed (really, he was). So Barber Bob picked himself up, fell back asleep, and woke up on the right side. After he finished waking up, he made himself some a bowl of his own recipe, Pie Cereal. When he left his house somebody gave him a thousand dollars for no reason at all! Barber Bob was so surprised he threw a strawberry pie at the man.

Well, back to the story. Barber Bob wasn't on his way to his barber shop because he decided to take a week off. Barber Bob was on his way to his parents' house. He hadn't visited their house since the early 19th century. Barber Bob decided to bring Artist Artie and Chef Cory along to introduce them to his parents.

On their journey they saw an airplane in the road with a cow in front of it. So they stopped the car and got out to find out what happened. They saw the pilot and ran to him.

“What happened?!” exclaimed Artist Artie

“I was flying with my pilot when we ended up in a big pile of smoke. We tried to fly out of it but we ended up going down and that was the last thing I remember.”

“Do you have any idea why there is a cow in the middle of the road?” Barber Bob asked.

“Probably because there usually is a cow on this road.”

So the three set off again and half an hour later they saw a familiar looking face in the car next to them. It was Baker Billy coming from his home, Boston, Massachusetts. They both raced each other to the house and Barber Bob came in last.

They all got out of the car and went inside to see Barber Bob's parents. Barber Bob introduced everyone to each other.

“Artist Artie and Chef Cory, this is Barber Barbara and Baker Bob. Mom and Dad, this is Artist Artie and Chef Cory.” They sat down to eat Barber Barbara's famous Homemade Blueberry Pie.

“That tastes good, did Barber Bob get the cooking from you Mrs…what is your last name anyway?” asked Artist Artie.

Barber Barbara replied, “Our last name is Baker, and yes, Barber Bob learned to cook from me.”

After an hour of talking they had to leave, so did Baker Billy. So they said goodbye and right when they were about to leave, Barber Bob said, “Hey where is my little brother?”

“Right here.” Said Baker Billy.

“No, not you. I mean Mini Barber.”

“Who is Mini Barber?” asked a surprised Artist Artie. He had known Barber Bob for so many years and B.B. had never told him about another little brother.

“He is our brother who we haven't seen since 1752,” answered Baker Billy.

“Hey, how about you and me enter The Pie Baking Contest that has been world wide for sixty-three years in a row?” questioned Barber Bob.

“Sure, but where is it anyway?” asked a stumped Baker Billy.

“It is at the pie baking arena on the island of Bob.” They got in the car and went to the arena. After a while the contest was about the begin.

The announcer's voice came on the speaker, “There are three groups, Divisions 1, 2, and 3. In the first group is Barber Bob. In the second is Baker Billy. In the third is Mini Barber. Each of them will be competing against anybody who dares challenge them.

Two minutes later they had beat everybody and now they were competing against each other. It took them three hours to bear Mini Barber, and now it was just Barber Bob and Baker Billy. They kept baking and baking and baking. Finally six months later one of them won. It was Barber Bob and everybody celebrated!

Barber Bob won a medal and a trophy and everybody was happy. Except Baker Billy. He was plotting on some way to get back at his older brother because Baker Billy was so close to winning. He would keep on planning forever.
