#1 "That's my rock!"
"No, it isn't! It's mine!"
"Oh yeah? We shall smite you for 12 hours!"
"So what? There will be no casualties!"
And so it went. To and fro. To and fro. There was much gnashing of teeth, wearing of sack cloth and ashes, and hopes that soon, one side would be victorious and ululate. Then peace would come, and with it, the spring.

#3 "Ok, so that's your rock? Here it is, moron! [throws rock]
"Hey, uhhhhh!" [hit in head with rock]
[Staggers, blood streaming down from head wound, touches blood with hands]
"By Mo's Beard you made me look like a Shiite on parade. You'll pay for this!"

And they went at it, throwing rocks until the sun set, with a few breaks for call to prayer. And Allah looked down at the scene, and thought that these guys have definitely been in the sun too long, and said to himself, "I need a vacation, but where will I go?"
