slept in until noon.

But today

KyBanjo - Posted - 05/28/2021:  07:33:19

she was up at the crack of dawn.

She said

chuckv97 - Posted - 05/28/2021:  09:01:58

her varicose veins were bothering her.

Sarge guffawed and wolfed down his bacon

OM45GE - Posted - 05/28/2021:  13:35:25

swigged the rest of his coffee and let out a large belch.

He wiped off his chin and said,

Pick-A-Lick - Posted - 05/28/2021:  17:18:06

“Maybe if you’d elevate your legs more often you wouldn’t have that problem”.

She

OM45GE - Posted - 05/29/2021:  03:29:57

quickly elevated her right leg to the level of his groin.

When he caught his breath, he

KyBanjo - Posted - 05/29/2021:  07:49:18

immediately called 911.

They told him to

OM45GE - Posted - 05/29/2021:  08:23:57

calm down and stop blubbering like a child.



They said they wouldn’t

bother sending an ambulance for a guy with sore jewels.

Sarge swallowed hard

OM45GE - Posted - 05/29/2021:  13:25:04

and wiped away a tear.

He figured he might as well

KyBanjo - Posted - 05/29/2021:  14:36:38

suck it up and be a man, after all he was a Sergent.

After a bit of

chuckv97 - Posted - 05/29/2021:  15:08:19

the hair of the dog he started feeling ok again.

His cruiser, however,

KyBanjo - Posted - 05/29/2021:  16:48:18

was a whole new story on its own.



You see,

Pick-A-Lick - Posted - 05/30/2021:  06:02:49

it had become an embarrassment to the community and a point of contention among peers.

It’s condition

KyBanjo - Posted - 05/30/2021:  07:36:30

was so bad being held together only by bailing wire and shoestrings.


Its really getting embarrassing

chuckv97 - Posted - 05/30/2021:  17:29:54

and Mayor Lordworthy is perturbed by it all.

His sense of

OM45GE - Posted - 05/31/2021:  03:23:07

priorities is a little off.

He pays far more attention to

Pick-A-Lick - Posted - 05/31/2021:  06:22:32

the scantily clad young neighbor sunning herself by her pool, than he does taking care of business.

If

KyBanjo - Posted - 05/31/2021:  11:28:50

he keeps this up he never will make Lieutenant

He often

Pick-A-Lick - Posted - 05/31/2021:  12:12:35

wishes he was young, slim, and handsome so he could be a babe magnet.

Maybe

KyBanjo - Posted - 05/31/2021:  12:36:31

could start working out to look better.

If

OM45GE - Posted - 06/01/2021:  03:42:53

wishes were horses, beggars would ride.

At least that’s what

Pick-A-Lick - Posted - 06/01/2021:  04:55:52

the Chinese fortune cookie told me.

Personally

chuckv97 - Posted - 06/01/2021:  08:43:21

my chef at the local Chinese restaurant told me his wife makes up those fortune cookie old saws.

Speaking of sawbones, mine

KyBanjo - Posted - 06/01/2021:  10:29:26

told me that I really need to watch my weight.

I tried but

Pick-A-Lick - Posted - 06/01/2021:  10:50:36

after several hours of watching myself naked in the mirror and seeing no change, I got dressed and went to lunch.

Tanya’s Taco Truck was

OM45GE - Posted - 06/01/2021:  12:50:48

parked outside so I got in line and waited my turn.

Unfortunately, before I

chuckv97 - Posted - 06/01/2021:  12:57:47

teeming with cockroaches.

Tanya just shrugged it off

OM45GE - Posted - 06/02/2021:  02:42:14

and turned another page.

She had apparently

Pick-A-Lick - Posted - 06/02/2021:  05:20:12

neglected her sanitation duties and didn’t know or didn’t care about the cockroaches.



Both of her regular customers

chuckv97 - Posted - 06/02/2021:  07:28:38

brought barf bags.

Her specialty

KyBanjo - Posted - 06/02/2021:  08:24:11

was not really known at this time.

Someone said

OM45GE - Posted - 06/02/2021:  11:24:55

she was actually a front for a large loan sharing operation.

However, she hated fish

chuckv97 - Posted - 06/02/2021:  11:34:46

but adored sharks.

Her exploits with a pool cue

KyBanjo - Posted - 06/02/2021:  19:39:08

almost got her busted one time.

Luckily for her

OM45GE - Posted - 06/03/2021:  03:11:57

the police officer who responded was one of her clients.

He promised

Pick-A-Lick - Posted - 06/03/2021:  04:58:51

to clear her of wrongdoing in the matter.

In turn

KyBanjo - Posted - 06/03/2021:  09:02:38

she had to agree to meet on Friday night with him.

She decided to

chuckv97 - Posted - 06/03/2021:  09:18:21

wear a Little Orphan Annie outfit to add some color to the proceedings.

But alas,

OM45GE - Posted - 06/04/2021:  05:08:08

the only Little Orphan Annie costume she could find was several sizes too large.

It made her look

KyBanjo - Posted - 06/04/2021:  17:42:21

a bit ridiculous but she really didn't care what anyone thought.

Later that evening

OM45GE - Posted - 06/05/2021:  04:07:33

a line of thunderstorms came through.

They cooled things off, but

chuckv97 - Posted - 06/05/2021:  09:10:43

tempers were hot at Grim Jim’s.

Jim had run out of

KyBanjo - Posted - 06/05/2021:  10:55:47

Louisiana hot sauce and a panic ensued all across the room.

This happened

Pick-A-Lick - Posted - 06/05/2021:  14:26:26

to coincide with reruns of Lucile Balls “Vitameatavegamin” skit, which was playing on the bar's TV. 



The resulting turmoil

Edited by - Pick-A-Lick on 06/05/2021 14:27:55

KyBanjo - Posted - 06/05/2021:  19:17:29

really had started to get out of hand.

They decided

hit the road in Bubba’s cold blue steel, which had a blues band in the back and a beautician at the wheel.

cruisin’ down ole Route 66 when a cow ventured onto the Highway.

The resulting milk explosion

OM45GE - Posted - 06/07/2021:  02:43:28

caused panic among cereal lovers.

They knew that hoarders
