The small New England town was completely deserted.
Standing on the famous front porch of the Rabbit Hill Inn, First Officer Cements absorbed the summer smell of freshly mowed grass and the feel of the cool winds from the coast.
“Mission accomplished Captain Zork. The area has been successfully evacuated and the borders have been sealed. Your plan has been successful Sir. The Fleet awaits your command to occupy the area,” Clements reported.
“You see First Officer Clements how easy that was? Not a single casualty on either side. All it took was those three little words”
“Free Labstah Rolls”

Oh Danny Boy! 
I agree. Give something free and an area can be cleared in no time. Funny stuff. 😀 Well done, Danny. 🙂 — Suzanne

They are quite tasty. Had one last week. Costs is up to $19.

What a good laugh. You had to get in line before they ran out of labstah.

I wondered how to deal with the fact that we can’t see any people in the picture! Nicely done!

It was my concern also. Too much Steven King I guess. Thanks for commenting!
