TRUE ??? # 3


To read this newsletter, you must understand that almost half of nearly everything in it is nearly 50% almost half truth, while some very small portions of it may be “made-up”, or embellished half truths. This reporter will observe the patrons and staff, and relate to any and everyone who can read what goes on in and around the Big Country Kitchen. If any patrons or staff members don’t do or say anything worth writing about thinking they will escape being featured in this newsletter, I will “embellish” something that COULD HAVE BEEN done or said, so the 4 readers of this paper won’t be deprived of what might have been done or said by other customers.
Rhonda and a female cohort(that I do not know) caught a man wandering around jay-bird nekkid behind the café, just recently. His car was still parked under a tree up front, so presumably he walked down the alleyway in the altogether to get where he was. The cohort wanted to tackle him and practice their tattooing, as there was so much exposed skin. Rhonda said: “I’m not touching that guy. You don’t know what he might have.” The cohort just happened to have two cameras on her, so she and Rhonda proceeded to take a lot of pictures, for the internet, I suppose. Rhonda didn’t say which one of them, or who, called the cops, but the guy was taken away in handcuffs, and very little else. His car was still under the tree Friday evening.
The owner of the Head Shed, Sharon, came in with her roommate, the other Sharon, and were talking about one of the Head Shed’s customers being upset because Sharon didn’t open her business at 9:00 a.m. Evidently he was on time and Sharon was 15 minutes late. He could have driven down to the café and had coffee instead of getting upset. I guess his hair grows really fast and he has to keep to a timetable getting it cut or he’d look like the wolfman. Sharon said another customer wanted her to shave him all over, front and back. She declined without even considering that she could have laid him down face-up, put a hot towel over his face to soften his beard, then used a couple of rolls of duct tape on him for hair removal purposes. I doubt he would have been a repeat customer after that.
Jim and Darlene were late again Friday morning for breakfast, arriving just as I was getting in my truck to go the bank. As I think about it though, I might have been early, as I was trying to get to the bank at 9:00 a.m. I could change my breakfast schedule from “anytime between 6:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m.” to allow for Jim’s advanced age and having to lie abed longer.
