MONEY

MONEY

It can buy a House……………But not a Home
It can buy a Bed………………But not Sleep
It can buy a Clock…………….But not Time
It can buy you a Book……….But not knowledge
It can buy you a Position……But not Respect
It can buy you Medicine…….But not Health
It can buy you Blood…………But not Life
It can buy you Sex…………..But not Love

So you see money isn’t everything, and it often causes pain and suffering.

I tell you all this because I am your Friend, and as your Friend I want to take away your pain and suffering…

So send me all your money.

And I will suffer for you.

CASH ONLY PLEASE!!!

Valentine, TX. I’m just hoping I remember this one for the right time. Who knew one digital image could get so much mileage?

Bar scene dream sequence.
This one was weird. Might have been the spicy food, might have been the rich sauce, or the rosemary and thyme. Never can tell.

I was working a bar, like I used to work, a while back. Same dishes, sinks, racks of glasses, same space, only reversed from what I knew it as. Plus there was some serious firepower back there, but that was only tangential.

I remember mixing one drink, besides the usual, and it was for a motorcycle-riding buddy. He grabbed a knife-tool, and we put a big hole in a can of sweet & sour concentrate, then I pumped a few shots of that into a shaker with some peach brandy. Add ice, shake.

A little later, two kids came in, and the other bartender said there was going to be some action. We had to hunker down behind the bar, on the bar mats, as one kid pulled out a machine gun. When he pulled the trigger, bubbles floated out of the barrel.

I grabbed a pistol from up over one rack of bottles and proceeded to return fire – with feathers.

Spicy food does that to me, sometimes. Or just a late night peanut-butter sandwich. Half sandwich, just one piece of bread.

Have to be late night dreams.
