[edit] Queens Deli during the 1940's
Somewhere in a little town called Fogelsville in the white supremacist Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (Penns Woods) a deli was built. During the time of which it was built was the time when many a people were dying and no one wanted to leave the comfort of their quasi-air conditioned houses. The deli struggled through out the decade building itself and rebuilding itself. Its hardest time during the decade came when it first established itself, which ironically was the day that Pearl Harbor was attacked (December 7, 1941). At first the quaint little town was glad to have such an exclusive deli such as Queens. After establishing its business the owners found it crucial to establish where they stood as far as politics went. So when Jaffers Hyland and Steven Grove both announced that they were nazi's on the day of the ribbon cutting people were flabbergasted. This announcement came as quite a shock since half the townspeople were Jewish. Nonetheless the deli continued to get business, but only half the business they would usually get.
[edit] The Beatnik Years
From Jew hating nazi sadists to being peace loving, coffee drinking beatnicks, Jaffers Hyland and Steven Grove were changing and so was their business. The Political Positions they took during the 1940's brought about a lot of bad blood in the jewish community. Public apologies by Hyland and Grove were taken, but to this day were never accepted.
Work had started to rebuild the deli into a coffee bar hang-out. According to Hyland this was also to be a symbol of a fresh start in the community and the beginning of a better business. The Acid dropping, marijuana smoking era had begun and both Grove and Hyland wanted everything to do with it. There coffee bar had become a front for selling marijuana, peace pipes, bongs, chinese prostitutes, and more. In fact if it was illegal it was probably sold at Queens Coffee and Glass Art.
Many protests were gathered in front of Queens. To quote an intoxicated Hyland the protests were, "Totally righteous! Whoa is that Jimi Hendrix? I'll be right back." There were protests against war, peace, animal slaughtering, people being eaten by animals, animals killing animals, and animals killing protestors. Protests continued at Queens all the way up to 1975 when the Vietnam War was ended. As the years progressed from the 50's to the 70's Hyland and Grove had not changed views much, but at least they did not want to kill anymore jews.
