We left the club and drove out of the parking lot before Tom checked out the pictures. "Shit this screen is so small I can't tell what is there. I can see that there are no hookers in there though. It is all metal shelves with stuff on them. I can't tell what it is, but it doesn't look like a cutting and repackaging room. Shit all that and neither of us are going to win the bet. They are just storing some kind of shit in there." he said.
"When we get to the motel, we will hook the computer to the camera and see what they are storing," I said as I continued to drive toward the motel.
"Lets stop for breakfast and take a look at that laptop. I'm hungry and I want to see," Tom said grinning.
"Oh alright," I said pulling into a waffle house restaurant. The problem was it was full. I didn't want to run the pictures in front of that many people. Tom agreed.
"I'll have the big breakfast," Tom said to the older waitress.
"Make mine a bacon egg and cheese sandwich on a bagel," I said after checking out their standard menu items. After the waitress left I said to Tom, "They are doing something illegal with that warehouse, I just don't know what."
"They could be smuggling, just not what we originally thought. Something else but not the obvious."
"Well Tom it is obviously not the obvious," I said with a smile. "I have a good idea that between the two of us we will know, when we see the pictures."
Tom could hardly wait to get back to the motel to see the inside of the warehouse. He obviously made him feel young again. Back to the chase, I thought.
I plugged the wire which connected the computer to the camera into the usb port. I loaded the software and it was ready to go. When I clicked on the icon, I was able to follow the files until a picture came onto the screen. The first image was the size of the camera almost. The enlargement was a shot of the warehouse over all. There ware several rows of shelves and on those shelves were a hell of a lot of cages, the kind in which you might keep gerbils.
"What are those gerbils? Tom asked. "Why would anyone want that many gerbils and what are they going to do with a hundred gerbils."
"The aren't gerbils they are mice. The are being used as snake food. Look on the side by the outside wall. The cages are much bigger there. I'll bet you that those are Burmese Pythons, or some other large snakes in those cages. It is hard as hell to get an import license for exotic animals. These guys are bringing them in and reselling them without an import license."
"Why would they do that, when they could be smuggling cocaine." Tom asked.
"Well for one thing, you don't have anywhere near the risk of getting your ass shot by your competitors. There are no python sniffing dogs, and it is very unlikely the pet stores are going to roll on you. If and when they are questioned about their drug habit. In other words it is a very safe operation." I said.
"Hell I can see that, you and I thought they were smuggling much worse things. If they get caught it will likely be a fine equal to a half dozen snakes and they will be a 'go and sin no more warning'," Tom added. "Yeah I can see it. The club noise wouldn't bother the rats or the snakes I guess."
"I guess not. So we have solved the case and without breaking any laws. Damn good job," I said. "Let's have a drink to celebrate."
Actually Tom had several drinks. After four he asked, "What shall we do about the great snake smuggling caper?"
"Nothing, as far as I can see he isn't hurting anyone, just cheating the government. Aren't we all doing that a little?" I asked in return.
"I suppose we are at that," Tom said. "So they are laundering the money through the night club."
"That would be my guess yes." I said "It would also explain the club in the same building."
"They do have a sweet operation." he said.
"Tom you are not a cop anymore and they didn't piss us off, so there is no reason to drop a dime on them." I said. "Don't forget who is paying the bills. If Swamp Dog finds out you did that, they will most likely replace you."
"If I call in on the tip line, they won't look for me. Like you said it's a very low level crime," Tom added.
"Tom everything doesn't have to end with the cops. Hell they never end with the cops. Half the time you never knew what happened with a case you are working on. So let this end with us. There is no sense making an issue. We will be on the road to Memphis tomorrow." I said.
"Okay, Okay, I will drop it," Tom agreed.
I had a feeling that he was going to call in an anonymous tip tomorrow while I ran, but I couldn't stop him. I just hoped he wouldn't take me down with him.
Tom came to my bed that night and we had straight sex and it was fine. I like ordinary mom and pop sex now and then. When he left my bed I was tired enough and calm enough to sleep through the night just fine. My 6AM run didn't start till 10AM.
I dressed and ran off into the damp morning air. The sun was hiding behind storm clouds so I was glad we were leaving Florida. Florida and the whole gulf coast was like a hurricane magnet. Not that I objected to a small one. All those thoughts ran through my mind as I ran for the hour. Since I checked my drive time calculator, and it showed a two day drive time, I decided to take Sunday off and do laundry. I decided that while I ran as well.
"Why can't you be sociable," the belligerent drunk asked. "Just go away and leave me alone," the young woman replied. He put his hands on her, which was the step over the line as far as I was concerned. I walked up and showed him my badge. "You need to go on home. You can either leave here now and come back, or you can wait for the manager to ask you to leave in which case you won't be welcome again." I tried to be calm and reasonable. "Bullshit, I ain't going nowhere," he...
Life fell into a boring routine quickly. It had been a bore since the first month and it stayed that way for eight months. It was out of the blue. when something really exciting happened. It was sad, but that didn't change the fact that it brought excitement to the Sheriff's department. Some hikers found a child's body wrapped in a tarp. Since she was wrapped in a tarp everyone jumped right to murder as a cause of death. It took the Medical Examiner three hours to rule that it was indeed...
I glanced up as the commander stepped into the room and everyone quieted. He looked at me, “Morpheus, take Swift, Taylor, Samson, Adams and Michaels. They had a prison escape on Devlin.” I nodded and stood, “How many?” He shook his head, “Nine.” I grabbed my bag and started towards the lifts. The other marshals followed me as I dropped to dispersing. We had a four hour wait in the starport before boarding a shuttle up to the cargo transport that was headed to Devlin. There were only a few...
The state cable news network called me at the motel but on my cell phone. It wasn't the man from the crash, it was a chick who claimed to be his producer. It looked to me as though they were trying to be a real news agency. "Hi there, you are Deputy Sylvia Porter?" she asked. "I am. Who might you be?" I asked. That's when I found out about the producer thing, "So what can I do for you Miss Producer." I didn't even bother to file her name into my short term memory. I didn't expect...
The Johnson/Goodall family had been in Sacramento for just over three weeks and they were already on their way to becoming "rich." Eddy had collected $56.25 in wages as a deputy marshal and their company had collected $300 for delivering heavy freight more quickly than the customer had expected. Eddy had already been contacted by potential customers for other jobs which they were now ready to handle. Over the next week, Jeb and Josh earned $53 for moving a load across town in two trips and...
The state had pulled my certification. Without it I was unemployable, even as a game warden. That really hurt, not that I really wanted to back to being a rabbit police person. Even if I found a small town police force that wanted me, they could hire me without that certification. I could bring an action against the state but if the damage to my hand proved to be long term, I would lose. I doubted that any court anywhere would force them to do any more than make a monetary settlement with...
"I looked, but I couldn't find the interview with her lawyer anywhere," I admitted. "She says we offered to forget her attempted escape, if she had sex with us." Simpson said. "It's not believable that we conspired to have sex with her," I said. "I wouldn't worry about it. I'm going to tell the truth which should remove any suspicion of criminal activity. I hadn't planned to mention the escape attempt at all, but appears I'm going to have to do it." "Yeah, I agree. Just try...
The room was warm and it really felt good. I had been standing out in the cold wearing just my running suit and the light parka for well over two hours. I made short work of stripping off the running suit and hanging it on racks to dry. After that little domestic chore, it was on to the hot shower. I also washed my new peach fuzz of course. I was dressed in a clean uniform and in the office well before nine. I didn't think that was too bad, since I had been waylaid for quite some time. "So...
Abe had risen, and offered his hand to Nola. SHE was as fascinated by him, as he was by HER. If she had been asked, she couldn't have explained the reason. It was just THERE. Their first real embrace was immediate. They held each other, kissing, and exploring each others bodies. The sensations left both of them breathless. They went up the stairs, arms around each other, looking into each others eyes. "Hey Girl!!!" Irene called to her. "Ya better look where yer goin! Y'all gonna stub a toe, or...
Hailey sat in business stats class and seethed as the professor belittled the young man in the back of the room. She was already in a bad mood. She had talked to Phil the day before and it was obvious that he didn’t share her concerns about the motives of Skyler McKay and Grace Karstens. He said they had invited him out to a club after the game but he had finally convinced them he wasn’t interested. Hailey knew what happened in the clubs around Heilman. She could only imagine what...
The reception after the awards was fun. I turned off the pagers for the Angels, Cutie, Creamy and Sweetcakes. Baby, Hunk and Nosey I turned off during dinner because none of the three of them could even stand if the level went over 5. They were assigned to be the relief holes for their brothers. I told the boys with active pagers to use the Angels, Cutie and Creamy. I snagged Baby near the start of the evening. "You been loaded yet?" I asked him. "Twice, Papi." "Good. Come on." We...
January 17, 2018 Dear Ms. Diary, Dad and the three moms joined us for an early breakfast, partly because Inez was leaving today. We girls, even Celeste and Meka, each hugged Inez tightly before Carol took her to the airport this morning for her trip to visit Florida museums. She’ll be back next Saturday. At lunch, Meka turned to Lana, saying, “You’re antsy. What’s with you?” When Lana widened her eyes at her, Meka came back with, “Oh. I know. Never mind ... although you’ve got only a...
Sunday all of us ended back over at the gym. We had been using the part-time help hard the last couple of weeks and they needed a break; on top of that it was Super Bowl weekend. Those that wanted the day off, we allowed them to take it. All the bars had been running many kinds of Super Bowl specials and parties. We expected that by noon customer attendance would drop off and it did some. The gym was busy this morning and so was the tanning booth. Wendy, bless her soul, came in even though...
Husband's call! "Honey it's me. I don't want to alarm you, but I was hit by a car as I Was leaving the office. Paula brought me to the hospital. They've checked Me over and done some tests and some x-rays. The blow to my head was Severe. Fortunately it did not cause any serious internal injury. However I Have three broken ribs, a compound fracture in the left leg, and they think They may have to amputate my right foot."* Wife's Response: "Who's Paula?" This one is...
Lily, I send you hugs from across the stars. Or at least I'm thinking of you. It's nice to hear that you are becoming a stronger and more confident woman. I read some nice things in your last letter. First, that Will is going to be able to make his way back to you. That will mean a lot to Erica and Willow. I know, you are now thinking why it would mean much to Erica. The truth is that the more I'm around my mistresses, the more I realize that they are two women with in many ways one...
Ten minutes later, I went out with the orchestra. They tuned up. Coming out next, were Charles and Peter. “What’s wrong, Charles?” “It’s embarrassing.” “Come on, you can tell us?” “All of my closest friends have or are getting married,” Charles responded. That got a reasonably nice applause. “Is that the only reason you are so upset, Buddy?” Peter said. “You have got a Hot wife, so does Michael, as well as Stuart.” “You have got a pretty girl in Shirley. Wait a few years, then you...
Just inside the entrance to the ski lodge, Jeff and Kayla stood talking to Lieutenant Mayfield (the security Lieutenant) and a training Sergeant from the base. To a casual observer, the check-in office of the once ski lodge would not appear to have changed very much. Someone who knew what they were looking for, however, would notice that the profusion of floor to ceiling glass of the office had been replaced with armor glass, and there were now extra monitors behind the counter. The command...
Laura didn't know whether she was happy or not that things had, temporarily at least, been patched up with Sholandra. They had had spectacular sex, which left them both exhausted and fulfilled, though sore. But Sholandra was not likely to make any fewer demands going into the future. And Laura was left with scratch wounds that made it impossible for her to see Trina for a week at least. She had no idea what excuses she would make. Trina would be very suspicious, since she worried about...
Say thanks to dorsetmike for this group! There was a young man in Australia who painted his arse like a dahlia 10 cents a smell was all very well but a dollar a lick was a failure There was a young girl from the Cape who had an affair with an ape the result was most horrid all bum and no forehead and one hairless ball like a grape There once was a bishop from Birmingham who seduced young girls while confirming ‘em as they knelt on a hassock he lifted his cassock and shived the...
I went to bed and listened to Mel and Wilson again. How the hell can those two do it three nights in a row. Especially Wilson, surely his heart is being damaged, I thought. Then I laughed. Probably good cardio. Mel never ran and look at her flitting all over the pier tonight. Maybe I really should try it, but not tonight. I was in the canary when I got The Brit's call. "So where are you?" he asked. "About five miles from the old light house," I said. "Surely there is more than one...
I had to depart for my afternoon workout session with Kim as soon as the call ended. We were almost to the end when Liz appeared in the room. “Come back to the office when you’re finished here, please,” she said. I grunted my assent since I was in the middle of forcing my arm outward with a stick and it wasn’t the most pleasant feeling I’d ever experienced. Liz stood and watched for a moment before smiling sadly and heading back to work. “Is she mad?” Kim asked from the...
The family was waiting at Morton along with two little boys and I was glad to see all of them. I hugged every one of my mates and kissed them. I knelt down so I could hug them. I picked them both up for a double hug. “Can you take us backed to the fort for more treasure hunting?” RJ asked. “Yes tomorrow afternoon after I go goose hunting with friends and I will take you on Sunday too if you want, unless we find something more fun to do,” I said. We went home even though there were...
“Now I close my eyes and the notes are black ribbons spooling from my fingertips, reminding me of Wildgirl’s hair.” —Leanne Hall, Queen of the Night 29 NOVEMBER 2020 Em was home for a total of seven days and I had to spend three of them in school. And the equivalent of another rehearsing. It makes me mad that all of a sudden, our lives can be ripped up again and we ‘children’ have no choice but blind obedience to the ones with authority. When I was an old man, I’d have told them...
Present – Jens (Dasha), Ben (Valentin), Ira and Mira – On the mission The pilot comes on the intercom and announces, “Ladies and gentlemen, please fasten your seatbelts as we will be landing at Almaty International Airport in a few minutes.” I am soooo thankful this long trip is finally over. I was lucky and slept some while Valentin appears to have slept great. We exit the airplane and head to the luggage claim. I know what’s coming once we get our luggage and I’m dreading it. Even though...
It took a few minutes for Adam to explain what he had learned about bondage videos during his most recent shoot. Celina didn't really see how the two situations were similar but she let it go. "In some states, you have to be 21 to see pornographic movies," she explained. "In most states 18 is old enough. In some states you can get a learner's permit at 14 or 15. Most states start at 16. I'm sure it's the same thing. Some states have decency laws that extend to those situations. Most...
The well dressed business man walked into Hardee's just as I sat down to review my tape from the night before. More importantly to me was the last three hours. I was occupied so even though I noticed him walk in the place, I didn't keep track of him. When he sat down at the table I paid a lot more attention to him. "So are you Randal Davis king maker or one of his flunkies?" I asked. "You know, if I wasn't Randal you really would have pissed me off with the flunky comment," he...
Eddy went back to the jail and made sure that the prisoners were properly taken care of. There was a problem of crowding, but none of the other prisoners were willing to be in the same cell as the Chinese giant. Finally, everybody was sorted out and the handcuffs were removed. Eddy sent the temporary deputies home with his thanks and the request that they all come back at 1:00 PM tomorrow. He had something important to discuss with them, but he needed to get to Bill's parents' house before...
My last night on swing shift was a bust. Even so I slept till noon the next day. When I awoke I took a shower, then dressed in my jeans and one of my forest green tee shirt. I wore one of the several men's white dress shirts over it. I also clipped the off duty holster onto my belt before I slipped on the medium weight parka type field jacket. Being a military police person would have allowed me to steal all the uniforms I wanted, but I bought mine from the surplus store just outside the...
I looked up as the commander walked out of his office. Amanda shifted to follow my look, “Something up?” The commander headed towards us and I nodded, “I think we just got picked for something.” He stopped in front of my desk and tossed a data stick, “Grab your things. A prisoner died in custody on Gable. They need a officer to head the investigation.” I glanced at Amanda, “Our custody or the constables?” He turned away, “The constables.” I stood and Dragon leaped from her perch while...
It was late Sunday evening and I had used the time that day to get over my various pains. It had been an interesting experience and now I that I had rested, I was a little less terrified. I was however still very concerned. I knew that I would have just to wait to see. The waiting would be hard but at least it wouldn't be forever. The shelf life of an amateur sex video was very short. They would likely post it only on one site if at all. It just wasn't likely to be seen by anyone who...
Spring had come to the mountain, and it was glorious. I have survived the last two months without being involved in any of Mary Ellen's projects. I did pay off the Monk for saving my life, otherwise I had been celibate. How did I do it you asked. Well everybody showed me a lot of love at work and the community seemed to appreciate all that I had done. I guess I didn't need the love of a strange man to justify my existence at that particular time in my life. I was reporting for the new SOU...
From my vantage point behind the low line of brush I watched the approaching vehicle. It was moving along pretty good and I flipped the switch on the remote in my lap, activating the radar gun mounted on my dash. It was a high tech unit, one of the latest on the market, and it automatically recorded the highest speed of the oncoming car. Good thing too, as the driver obviously was in possession of a "fuzz buster" since the nose of the car came down as the driver hit the brakes hard. I...
Even without the splint, the flimsy donut box would have been a difficult item for me to carry. With the splint, I had to use it as a resting place and hold the box in place with my good hand. Yes it sounds painful because it was. Still it would be short lived as I parked right outside the door to the courthouse basement. That basement was used by the Sheriff's office. The way over weight receptionist took the donuts and made a big fuss over me. "Sylvia what in the world happened to your...
Yeah I felt like a dumb ass while I waited the hours in a cold house for the emergency delivery of propane. I could have brought the small commercial cooking burner in the house to get some heat, but I chose to heat the small box in front with a ceramic electric heater. It didn't get warm but if I sat right in front of it, I didn't freeze either. The delivery man came after lunch, but that was okay. I couldn't be pissed at him for my stupidity. He left me with a bill for $376.00 it was...
"What's going on?" I asked Deputy Letter. "They raided Edward James Allen's house. There was no one there but it appears there had been a struggle. The SBI lab guys took lots of samples. They are going to be checking for DNA matches." Letter said. "So what are they thinking," I asked. I almost hated to hear it. "From the neighbors they heard that the husband and wife fight all the time. They have been expecting something violent anytime now," Letter informed me. "What I don't...
By the time I got to my room it was 5AM. Some of the state highway workers, who stayed at the Motel, had already begun to stir. If I had gotten into my room an hour earlier, I would have likely just fallen into bed and passed out. Since people were moving around, I knew that if I didn't run, I would lay awake filled with guilt. I refused to clean up though. That being the case, I dressed in my tight fleece running pants, and my tight long sleeve fleece knit shirt. After that I wrapped my...
I looked up from the stack of reports I was going through and marshal Edwards grinned. He was a short stocky man with grey hair and a wicked sense of humor. I glanced at Dragon as she looked up expectantly and sighed as he slipped her a small piece of sweet meat, “What now?” He laughed, “The boss wants you.” I looked at him closely and then stood, “Dragon guard my desk.” Edwards shook his head in mock sadness as I headed towards the commander’s office. A few of the others looked up but...
There were three consolidated schools in Warren County. Jennifer Austin had attended elementary school at Southeastern Warren. The principal greeted us with, "It is just awful about Jennifer. Do you have whoever did it in custody?" "To be honest, we are still investigating. That's why we would like to speak with Jennifer's teacher. I did call yesterday to set up the appointment," Simpson said. The tone of his voice was almost friendly, at least for him it was. There was just a hint of...
I wore the cap from the parking lot of the plaza. I would have worn it out of the store, but that would have looked a little odd. Like walking across the parking lot in a deputy's uniform with a thug's knit cap. I couldn't fit my current baseball cap I had over the knit cap. Since I couldn't wear both, I carried the knit cap in my hand. My first stop was to head back to the station for a larger baseball type hat. I figured with the shaved head and all, the Chief Deputy would be thrilled...
I wondered all the way home, if that had been what one would consider my first date since becoming a Deputy Sheriff. The thought of that made me laugh, I got home and checked to see if anything had happened on my computer. Nothing had, so I slipped into bed, I slept till 7AM the next morning. Though technically it was a work day, I saw it as the last of my break, since I started the midnight shift rotation. I hated midnight shifts and so did ever one else. I was working the patrol division...
The time seemed to be going by faster than before. I still hated the time I ran, every damn second of the thirty minutes. All I could hope for was that it passed quickly and it did. I looked for something to occupy my mind and it come lately in the form of the party at Gypsy Allen's house. The question was also in my mind was what in the world did they do there. What had gotten the 7year old killed was of course the big question. Of course there was alway the who dun it. By the time I made...
By the time that the SBI lab boys got through with the scene, it was past midnight. I was on overtime, but I didn't mind. I was enjoying the prospect of hitting the meth lab. "So do you want to volunteer to stay over and go on the strike team. We need to get in there before the word get out that we are on the way." Michaels said. "You know I want to see it through to the end. I want to see what a working meth lab looks like. I only seen them on TV." I said. "It doesn't look like...
The ten days passed slowly but they did pass. I went back on light duty, It wasn't all I hoped it would be. but I was back at work. It sure beat soap operas on TV. The first morning I went in on the day shift, even though my squad was on midnights, I was not allowed in a car as long as my clearance was only light duty. I expected to be filing reports and answering the telephone. Which is exactly what I did. "So how you like it on a desk," Simpson asked me early on my first day...
I drove home at five in the morning, more than a little upset by Learners comments. No I didn't have a lot of forgiveness in my heart. That was the church's Job or maybe even the ADA's job, Cops were supposed to pick up the bad guys. Somebody else had the job of deciding their fate. If he got me bounced from the unit because of this I was going to be pissed. I fell into bed without even taking a shower first. I was tired and my ribs hurt slightly. It was a minor pain, but it was always...
Learner and I staked out a construction site the first night back. Sure as hell a couple of idiots tried to steal pipe from the site. I let the truck get inside the site where it was nice and bottled up, before I slipped the grandmother car into the neck of the bottle. If they planned to bring their truck out of the site they had to drive up and surrender. Just to be safe Learner walked in and confronted them. They jumped in the truck and tried to make a run for it. I stopped them at the...
"Jeb, do either you or Josh know how to handle a shotgun?" "No, neither one of us ever fired any sort of gun." "OK, we'd better get you fixed up with some, then. Let's find a gun shop and see what we can do. You're going cross country with that there mining equipment, so you'll need some way to protect the oxen. Back on the train, we weren't bothered by wolves and such, but you might be, being that you'll be a lone wagon." "Josh, tell your sister that we'll be gone for a...
Eddy had one point on his side: the first time he fired his shotgun, people would come running. He just had to hope that they would get there soon enough to do him some good. He figured that he was hidden well enough in the dim light that the thugs would have a hard time spotting him. Eddy had a problem that he didn't see any way around: he couldn't shoot just because he didn't like their looks. They had to make the first move. Maybe they would try something illegal so he could shoot,...
So I mashed in the Colonel's run. I put in 15pounds of corn and all the stalks I had left after I ground them. Then I added the yeast and let it begin to work off. For two weeks I made myself seen around town. I talked to a few people I knew and who could help me, if I decided to run for Sheriff if couldn't hurt to have their advice. The advice was all the same, try to turn your negatives into positives, admit to everything, and make a joke of it. The Colonel Martin Mash was working and it...
We went back inside to finish our breakfast. An older man came by to leave his card on our table. "You never know," he said smiling." "Bob you are a defense lawyer, now why in the world would I need you," I asked. "You never know when the Sheriff will get a hair up his ass toward you," He said. "Well Bob, if the Sheriff gets a hard on for me, I'll give you a call." I replied. "I might make you a special price, you never know," the older man said. "Fair enough I laughed," as...
It was late and I still had several reports to review and four requests to decide on. I glanced at the door when a dragon flew in and landed on a chair back. I sat back and then grinned, “It has been a long time Samantha.” The dragon chirped and was answered by her mother on her nest. I looked at the door as an older Cambra walked through it and she grinned, “Hey kid moving up.” I came to my feet and moved around the desk and caught her in a hug. I stepped back, “Where have you been?” She...
I went home and worried. I had no way to tell who knew what, so all I could do was act like everything was normal. If I were a Los Vegas Odds maker, I would make it about 3 to 1 in my favor. I wasn't trying to be optimistic there were just so many thing that had to go wrong to get me busted. I had the Boyle brother's phone number and I could call, but I swore I would never contact them again. So I would have to wait till tomorrow at work, when I could pin those in the raid down. My chance...
Deputy Marshal Zack Wilson walked into The Silver Dollar Saloon the same way he did every night if was his turn to make the nightly rounds. He went up to the bar and said hello to Jim Hanson the bartender and owner. "How's it going tonight, Jim?" "Oh, 'bout the same as usual. There's a few miners here I ain't never seen afore, but they've been mostly quiet and drinking their beer. OH, SHIT! LOOK OUT, ZACK!" Jim grabbed Zack's arm and jerked him to one side as a thrown knife whizzed...
Rodney and I settled in to wait for the boss, or at least the rental boss. I had time to assess Rodney in full daylight. He walked with just a slight almost unnoticeable limp. He was not quite six foot tall and probably one hundred and eighty pounds. He was the color of coffee with just a touch of cream. There was some white in his gene pool for sure. His hair was too short to be in the least curly. As I think I said earlier he looked like he might have been a gym rat. Joan Pacer arrived...
"Look Sylvie, we have to make this look convincing. We want whoever is bugging you to think I'm an old boyfriend," He said it quietly over his beer. "Exactly how far to you think I am going to carry this charade?" I asked. "That depends on how bad you want to know who is bugging you. Believe me I don't want to be here. I have better things to do with my time, don't I?" he said. "Look that cockney accent is going to wear thin in about an hour. I have heard you speak with hardly...
I rode the bike on Friday for two hours. As I had begun to do lately, I went to the Cafe on the Square for breakfast. There was usually a deputy or two there, and since Mary Ellen was a local business women, she was a topic of conversation around there. Even if there were no cops, there was always some news that someone had gotten from a cop. The latest thing was the cops thought they might have a good lead. I thought, if the lead is the camera men, it was about fucking time. I said nothing....
"I swear to you Sylvia I don't understand why people are buying that stuff. I don't like the taste of it and I don't like the quick high I get from it." The Brit said. "I know, hun but people don't always make sense. As a matter of fact the one thing you can count on when dealing with people, is that they will all act irrationally at some point." I said. "Yeah, that is true enough. So what's the thrill?" The Brit asked. "Jim says it's designer drugs. Something nobody else has....
