Me Love Life Was Fabulous, But Hitler Was On The Radio!
27 September 2023
So there I was, the only Irish lad in Cambridge. How did I get in? I never had any money. Also I never seemed to study, but at least nobody ever made fun of me clothes, me religion, or me accent. And me so poor and stupid!

And then one night for no reason at all, the most gorgeous girl in the world pushed her way into me room. She said her name was Gilda, and she liked men. A lot! So me and Gilda, we went at it for a bit, but then she went to Paris. And I went to Paris. And there was lots of pictures taken, of us dancing and having sex and drinking, and Gilda said she only wanted fun, fun, fun until her daddy takes the T-Bird away.

So then the most beautiful Spanish girl in the world came to Paris, and it was me and Gilda and Mia having sex for hours, for no reason except we were young and in Paris and we looked gorgeous together in bed. And then Hitler's voice came on the radio saying the movie had been going on for over an hour already, and nothing was happening except girls in gorgeous clothes and tons of dancing and sex, and he was bored out of his mind.

So then Mia and me, we went to Spain, and there was snow on the ground. And people were dying everywhere! So then Mia and me made love and she said life only mattered when you believed in something. But she didn't say what exactly. And then she got killed!

Without girls walking into my room every night for sex, England was a bore. So I went and joined the army. Another war soon started, over Hitler going on the radio too often. Or something. And then I was back in Paris, as a spy, only everyone in my neighborhood knew me and thought I was a hero. And they hated Gilda for having sex with this German lad in Hitler's army, only it turned out she was a spy too, and so clever they could never catch her. Like if her German was talking on the phone she'd listen in, and then close her eyes and pretend to be asleep. Really clever!

So then there was a lot of shooting, and people being drowned in bath tubs, and on the last day of the war the French underground people took Gilda away for looking too gorgeous in every single scene. But she left me a note saying don't you forget about me. Don't, don't, don't, don't you, forget about me. Because fighting against fate is important. It's for mankind, or something. For we are the champions, my friend. And we'll keep on fighting till the end!
