Bambi

10.5.2019


I went to BevMo today for some Blue Curacao, rum and Grenadine for a Halloween grog I'm making m (add cranberry juice and ice for a fun, purple wingding).  
Out of my car and through the car park, I noticed a lurker in the corner of the lot.  
I went in, got my stuff (+ a bottle of Rose's Lime® for gimlets a la my hero, Raymond Chandler (his downfall)), and exiting and going again through lot, I saw the lurker in the corner stand and vector toward me.
Sure enough, I got to my car and he said, "hey brother, can you help me?"
I said I don't keep any cash on me anymore.
He asked if I had any food.  No, only Rose's Lime® and some other shit.  Then I remembered ... jerky.
I said, "Waitaminute!
I do have jerky," and dug into the space between the frame of the car and the driver's seat and pulled out a stick of jerky.  I held it out to him.
"It's venison jerky."
"What's that."
"Deer.  uh, Bambi."
"Whoa.  Never had Bambi.  Well deer anyway, ya know?  hah," he said.

"Well, enjoy," I said, but he was already gone.


Tonight - **Due to an obscure TNSC by-law regarding a 5th Thursday in October falling on Halloween, this week's meeting has been cancelled.  Also, have you ever tried drinking at a bar dressed as The Mummy?  It just doesn't work.  Be safe out there, and see you next week! 


bye-ee!
whrr ... clik!
