Cereal

We don't scare easy. No, we don't..


But Spanky Greggo the Stinky Fish (his own nickname, chosen by himself, and promoted by his brother on his own behalf), did. Which is why it was possibly a bad idea to send him in on the deal in the first place.


But there he was, and there we were, out about two mil, and one really easy to scare, badly nicknamed bloke.


I told Jimmy the Stink-Eyed Beetle, who was, coincidentally, Greggo's brother (they had some thing about the word 'Stink', don't ask me what it was all about), that we'd just have to cut our losses and run. For a brother, he didn't seem overly concerned with Greggo.




disclaimer:

Short and sweet, as my old fight manager used to say. Of course, he sounded more like "sort ad seet," as he was missing his front teeth, and, for some bizarre reason, he could never say the second letter, no matter what it was, no matter the word, in anything he said. Unless he was asking for popcorn. Go figure. His father was a popcorn salesman and grower, when he got weary of the road. At any rate, there but for the grace of God go I. Or thereabouts, since my father hadn't anything at all to do with popcorn.


If you were to mention to me that, perhaps, this issue doesn't seem to be continued, whatsoever, from the previous issue or the (present) end of the other previous serial, well, you'd be right. But I'd probably ignore you, spit out something unsavory on the sidewalk, and mosey on down the street. Or at least look apologetic and mosey off down the street, saving the spitting, not knowing the local fines for spitting in public.

Liked it.
Didn't like it.
Would have liked more references to bats.
I'd rather be boiled in vinegar.

I miss it.
Didn't use it.
What summary, you mean I can get away with reading less?
Don't miss it at all.
