Pretenderer
whirlyfritzer10
There are millions of stories of the city. This is just one of them. Jonathan Pleasent was a key man. He lived to be someone. His pride was more than anyone could stand he shinned his mustache hair. His clothing was almost perfect nothing out of place he sometimes wore those split shirttails without a belt sans tie. He would never wear a hat or cap the military tried and he was painfully discharged with an undesirable. He ruled a room entered he let no one over him or stop him his discourse was unlearned but  knowledgeable enough the  women liked his accent and they let  him ramble on just to get the sound inside the mind to hear enough to sometimes linger over coffee with the others and gossip of his voice. He says that like a frenchmon and they sigh. They cry real tears because they know it isn't true at all he lives there in the city. He is only one of them another of the crew. "Ten10Whirlyfritzerglomeratialsilverplaters Closer to homey," Jonathan asked me, "Is there water on Mount Lemmon", he asked slyly is there a lake or a reservoir there.? "There is a Tucson Lake it's about FORTY miles of water up there," it was the charlax poet he was musing. At least there is water in the summer time it runs in the ditch it has to come from somewhere so eye suppose it could be a manmade lake to aqueduct the cattle. Eye can not save her there is no way she is too young and involved with the program she loves to drink and partee the jazz and glitter who knoes what else she is into mabe even sex and illicit love after all money is the lower case god of everyone that has to have it some. Ewe knoe who eye meant just then. He was old he had aged almost ten years in one long nite of losing her. Part of his heart no longer works. It is hard to trust someone to love them. Eye am lucky it was not an erline this time. He is sad there is only one cure for this sadness his ewe must come to visit him soon. Jonathan Pleasent was not a pleasant man. He entered the operational code the whirlyfritzerglomeratialsilverplater on the website code the spy cam when he entered the new remade code over it matched and he continued to order his whirlyfritzerglomeratialsilverplater. EZQ456333177780034674836748923983940092 was now transformed to the new operational code 638476430087771333654qez7489223983940092 he noticed the inverse upper case letters were now lower case numbers. He Ordered up to the Chamber of Commerce Bank on Broadway Avenue A CObaltBlueT.M.Box@ whirlyfritzerglomeratialsilverplater from ZappersunlimitedLTDorgnetwebdot=20@yahoo.com of course the office of the President Joames Branch and even the treasurer office too Romand Plence hey he thought it WAS the Chamber of Commerce of Tucson. Not just the bank. They Airlifted the PIPE.T.M. pipe@T.M with the CobaltBlueT.M.Box.net BOX and the Whirlyfritzerglomeratialsilverplaterpurpleglue.T.M. @ pf pipeglue Glue all dropped with chutes at the same time it was gawkers everywhere will you look at all those golf balls everywhere a few people had crashed and become statistics someone even had a laundry box with a plastic lid full of golf balls on the back of the truck when it hit the street it went everywhere and all over the front of the busstopped there the Sun Tran Bussline. It is hard not to resent the students they have options. There is a study hall classroom for the brighter bulbs to sit with. The man insisted on placeing the whirleyfritzerglomeratialsilverplater in the hole himmself he was fooling  no one by tomorrow at this same time he would be stiff an ogre in the making. The double pipe@T.M. lines wound out from town and so crokked in the desert clime it climbed the mountain one side wind at a time. The small community at the top of the ridge line was happy they all jeered and cheered when the pipe@T.M. crew made it to the water line. CharlaX walked up to the whirlyfritzerbox and removed the packing crate list from the envelope and the warrenty warranty fell out onto the ground unnoticed by the crew. When the pipe@T.M. lines were safely in the watter and the crew was safley back inside the bank or home some of them just went home a lucky break for all of us Jonathan Pleasent walked outside the box and turned the whirlyfritzerglomeratialsilverplater on. The green light danced like two women in love. Then he opened the one sided mechanism and poured the brown like substance in the slot and closed the door. He was frowning at the light for it was supposed to be stationary and not blinking like that whay GOOD Lord on Sunday it was supposed to be a steady green light. And that was the first causualty clause for at that MOMENT of time poor Jonathen Pleasant went to heaven in a  whirlyfritzer ride. The green  light blinking in his eyes. Do not despare oh gentile reader ewe there had to be an accidental death to make my story true in jest eye liked this ending best for this whirlyfrtizerglomeratialsilverplater was the best western motel story for Tuscon ever done.
