It is
the hour before midnight, on the harsh, gray flat asphalt road along the
banks of one of the Great Lakes . A truck races by like a
shadow, the moon glowing behind a small house. The car swiftly goes on
by, the dim light from the fogy night: --moon penetrating through the
fog onto the tuck and house, where a man is standing by the road; --
music is heard coming from the car, Rock & Roll, as this stranger
standing by the road, a man in a red plaid shirt, he stands erect, as if
he was Paul Bunion; standing in-between the road and the house as a
truck races by.
The place was peopled by extras from "Hells
Angels on Wheels" and every bad prison movie ever made. This woman kept
bumping into me. She was medium height, slender, had long brown hair and
three teeth. Her face looked a little like it had caught fire and some
caring person had tried to put it out with an ax. Every time we collided
I apologized nervously and she walked away. From behind she could have
been Miss America. I swear.
What the hell? Why would
these people, this underclass, this despised minority, feel a kinship
with a singer that represents the right wing status quo? Shouldn't these
guys be listening to Steppenwolf (or at least Eminem)? Lets face it, the
main stream of America doesn't hang out in places like this. In fact,
most suburban middle class goons would prefer that these people simply
vanish from the planet. So why would the customers at Twisted Sisters
get behind this new super nationalism? This was like seeing Jewish kids
singing Deutschland Uber Alles, for god's sake. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chevrolet_S-10
Hannah's was just a hole-in-the-wall, long and
narrow with a bar running almost the whole length of the building. The
brick on the face of the building, and the white wooden door outside,
were nearly black from years of soot from the coke plant and steel
mills. Patrons tended to be older folks who spent what was left of their
paychecks on booze, Polish sausages, hard-boiled eggs, and illegal tip
boards. The
Families get to keep all of their personal belongings after they tear
the house down. TRUE. Jake said in accordance with the Armada show, they
rented Pods which are portable storage units. All of the families
personal belongings were stored inside the Pods right there on the
property.
Every year when my wife and I filed our taxes some things from MY past
(not hers) would creep up. If we filed our taxes on February 1st, we
were lucky if we got our refund in August. I had a
buy truck volvo that had a manual transmission. My wife cannot drive stick
shift but I had to put her on my insurance because she is has a driver's
license and lived with me. If she had tickets or a DUI from the past, my
insurance would be sky high and I have never had any tickets and I don't
drink and drive. It wasn't a problem for us but it could have
been. He tipped his hat a bit, raising it off is forehead
and when he did I noticed steel eyes. Eagle eyes that I imagined could
spot a leaf hopper miles away. He screwed up his mouth, flicked the
straw out the window and opening the door, said, Well, let's go. The
West Palm Beach Motorsports Examiner will be on hand for the event, and
will provide insight into the longest day in professional auto racing;
the Rolex 24! So
happens he ran out of his truck with his gun in hand pointing and said
look at that huge partridge. Back then the partridge appeared to be
three feet tall as it sat on an old sturdy willow branch. Its head and
shoulders were covered with snow and just sat their looking at my uncle.
All of a sudden you hear boom and feathers going everywhere like when
you bust open one of your mothers feather pillows she got for you for
Christmas. Looking you see that glorious partridge in all its splendor
laying on the ground. Yea those memories are sacred and worth writing
about.
