Come on in, Mitch. Petey's out whacking somebody who dis'ed the family and gumshoe Willy da Weasel's doggin' him close. What Willy didn't say is he seared Pinky's hand in the fry pan 'til he sang and then cleared Pinky's sinus' with a chef's knife. Looks like Nicholson in Chinatown. Petey's nurse thing was all a cover, right? A lot easier to get rid of the corpse in a hospital than ditching it in concrete. "Oh, he died in surgery..." Highrailjon Gambino's runnin' numbers and protection over on the East side tonight, but he'll be back for some grappa later. And Stinky Green's down at the Teamsters Union doin' some banking. Me, I gotta deliver a horse head over to an old acquaintance.

Yeah, that Angela's got lips. Trouble is, she's got a fidelity problem. When you kiss her she tastes like some other man's lunch.

Bella Sera.

San , That looks like some useful stuff!!
I'm gathering up some material for another building project and ordered some of these basswood laser-cut "rustic cedar shingles". Check out their online store:

PS, Here's a gourmet tip for you: Don't EVER buy low fat swiss cheese, it really sucks. :wink:

Jon, we had a saying in the Navy, "If it's not good, it's good for you". What BS that was. Hey, if it don't come from the four basic food groups, (carbohydrates, sodium, colesteral, and grease), then it has no flavor at all. :wink: How 'bout those deep fried wings with the jerk seasonin'?

Damned gumshoes.
They follow you around like the long fart that slowly oozes out of their K-mart blue-light-special trousers.

Yes, I had tried to hide in plain site, keeping my friends close but my enemies closer. I had befriended the flatfoot in his own squalid trailer, even expressing feigned admiration for his prized collections of Avon bottles and Thomas Kinkade prints.
Luckily, two can play his sordid game. I had taken pictures of his closetful of Birkenstocks and this dog-eared book he authored, that I found tucked under his pillow:

I could use those pictures now, but who are my friends, and did I have any? And why risk offending half the OGR forum members?

No matter, I was outed, and I needed to blow this two-bit hick town and fast. Could I even trust the redhead? Sure, she said she was “going to work”, but how was I to be sure she wasn’t meeting that bleached-blond bottomfeeder now, trying to get rid of me and weasel herself into sole possession of my hotrod?

But how to escape unnoticed? A red Escort hatchback stands out on a highway like a 20 carat diamond in a bucket of coal. I would have to leave it behind. I threw the keys in my pocket with my flask of Gold(tm) and headed down the hill to hop a fast freight to anywhere.

Pete, and to think that you believed the (THE) cylinder lost compression all by itself.

A friend had a triple bypass a few years ago and was put on a heart healthy diet. His description, "If it tastes good, spit it out."

LOL, The Army say's I'm fit enough to go kill people, I'm just supporting my wife's new diet. She's lost 17 lbs. in the last month and a half. Hooray for her (and me)!! :wink: I used to snicker at some of the meals Tramp and San would trade, but I can really see the results of my wife eating a proper and balanced diet. I'll never pick on them again, but I will vent from time to time!!!!

Petey, you ain't come across any sawed brake lines on the Escort, have you? :lol: :lol: :wink:

It's probably just his ballast repackaged. He's a wily one, that Dennis.

Pig powder. It's versatile stuff, except when somebody puts it in your gas tank like what happened to Petey.
