A new dance trend called "You son-of-a-bit ch!"

It was the year 1927, Hoover had just declared war on Cuba, a gallon of milk cost nearly a shiny nickel, and a new dance craze called You-Son-of-a-bitch! was sweeping the cities sidewalks, and you speak easy! It was discovered when I traveling businessman named Jeremiah Phillips came across a young man kicking two raggamuffins in the city street one day, they agreed to split the profits from the new jig 50/50, and then headed off the bright lights of New York city! Well, in a matter of weeks the two men were millionaires and decided to pull their resources and build what would late be known as The Empire State Building. They toiled the plan for 7 whole years on the construction of the modern marvel, but then the ice age set in! The weather pattern shifted! And all the Northeast became engulfed in cold and ice and tundra! Soon the meat trucks stopped coming into the big apple and then the vegetation withered and died! The sky grew dark and slowly man kind thinned into extinction!

THE END​

 

If New York City is currently a tundra, like you said, how did Santa ride through there last week?

... and for that matter, how am I still alive?
