Ollie was four years old and lived in the middle of nowhere. (Columbia Tennessee). His parents locked him in the basement with nothing but cans of green beans to eat. He had no comics to read or music to listen to.

His life was a void.

He would name the green beans and make them his friends. He talked to them in the day and in the morning. He would play games like tag with them. When they got moldy he ate them and opened a new can.

One morning on a warm April day a can of black olives bounced down the stairs.

He picked them up and clawed them open with his monstrous nails. And he was so incredibly happy he had a brain aneurysm and died.
