TRUE ???? TOO

TRUE ????  TOO                                                            # 3


Curtis was recently waylaid by a roving band of ticket scalpers. When he tried to explain to them that the Super Bowl had already been played and he did not need tickets, they duct taped him to the back door of his van and removed his beard with a hoe ( e on the end and in bad need of sharpening). Not content with that, they de-haired his arms with a cigarette lighter and with shouts of "Damn hippie", made the rest of his head look like the "post Delilah" Samson. Some 0 grit sandpaper glued to a pencil took care of the nose and ear hair. When I asked him if all I had heard was True, his one word reply was "YEP."

Chester put pix of Darlene's party at Bella Vita on facebook, and a friend of Kathy's took her to task for not inviting her/him to the party. Kathy didn't even know there was a party, since her and the "nearly wild bunch"stay holed up in the back being quiet as church mice. I must be more diligent in making sure that everyone gets the word on everything that is happening or should happen at Bella Vita. We (the wild bunch) are teaching Luma some of the differences in what we say in "Americanized" english versus how she might say it in Albanianized Albanian. There are some hilarious differences. I could relate more of what we say, including Luma, by utilizing the time-honored @%#$*&% keys on the keyboard as has been done in America since about 1492. (Yes, they had keyboards then, they just looked different and were called something else) I could also  use redaction, which I have done in the past, but most of the conversation we have would have to be redacted so heavily it would be very difficult to read, so I'm just going to get Luma to tell me how to say, and spell, every dirty word that exists in the world today, and put a Lexicon in this paper. Of course I will only be relating Albanian to American English(which in itself is a lot different from English English) to keep confusion to a minimum.

When Linda and I got about halfway home from the cafe this past Friday, my eyes felt a little funny, so I asked her how they looked when we got home. She said a little bloodshot, so I laid down for a few minutes. Then they went to spinning like the rabbit in the old cartoons with pinwheel eyes. She called an ambulance which transported me to Harris Hospital. The eyes had already straightened up by that time, but they said a cat scan was in order, along with chest x-rays. Short version is: dehydration, possibly from too long a time span between cups of coffee. Damn waitress. Doc said the x-rays and cat scan looked o.k.. so tell Tammy more coffee, and as soon as I got a bagfull of liquid down with an I.V. I could go home. I asked if I could get the bag to go, and he said no. Same answer to punching a straw hole in the bag. Same answer to Linda squeezing the bag.But the bag finally got empty, and we left the hospital in time to go straight to Bella Vita for dinner. Linda had picked me up at the hopital in her car, so I didn't have my cane  but I leaned on her long enought to get seated.Spotting my hospital bracelets, Tina asked about them, so I asked her if I could borrow her switchblade to cut them off with. She said something about not having one, and Nea/Nia said I asked the wrong one for the switchblade, but hers was at home, so Tina brought scissors and cut them off. We had a good dinner, and when it came time to leave, not having my cane, I asked Tina if she could help me stand up. She said "Seriously?", and I said yeah, so she pried me out of the chair without having to lift me, stood there holding my hand until she was sure I was stable, then let me go. She asked Linda what should she have done if I started to fall, and Linda said "Just get out of the way".
