  • The man beside me picked up a burger, chewed, and swallowed. Soon, that burger was gone. Then, another. And another. After the fourth or so, I began to wonder if he would ever
  • realize that his barn door was open. I tried to gesture to him with a subtle eye bulge and head tilt but he must have misconstrued my intention for something obscene because he
  • grabbed my lapels and shouted with rum soaked breath "What you be IMPLYING!" I murmured "x, y, z, p, d, q." He stopped and looked at his crouch. This allowed me to
  • quickly scribble a note with my special pencil. 'I think that: a) you're nuts and b-z) see a' I passed him the note through his legs and quickly got into the downward dog position.
  • He went into Wind Pose. So I countered with Bow posture up to ear. He did a Half lord of the fishes pose and of course I went to Half boat posture. Fuming, he gave me "The Finger"
  • which cried out for me to counter with Foot up Colon but I kind of knew that is what he expected so I went with Katana across torso with upwards stroke. Just to accentuate the feat
  • The blow took his breath and I knew the advantage was mine. Stay calm, breathe, do not get lazy. As he staggered to his feet I saw a reflection in his eye from behind me. Pain
  • Was visible as Ethel P. Nelson and her roller parrots entered the room. The first parrot, Alfred, declared "Put down your chainsaw, now!" Then his nine siblings chanted in unison.
  • "Parrot Roller Derby Smackdown!" the nine gaudy birds chanted. With a roar of wheels the parrots hit the rink, shrieking and tearing at each other's feathers. Ethel was referee,
  • Ethel made a final call that Pirate Polly's roller blade had been out of bounds when one eye'd Jill had gone down & there fore she was disqualified. The crowd went wild! Amazing!

    Knowing Pirate Polly as I don't, I can not imagine that laid well with her. She is afterall a Pirate and not used to bending to the rules.

    That should be "laid down well" in my first note. Like ken.
