Delaney had done time but was still omnicautious.

  • Delaney had done time but was still omnicautious. He was drinking his life away when Anton the Glowtat Roach got on his hand and said, "We found you a place at Harrison's Diner."
  • Delaney had never heard of Harrison's Diner until that night. Anton the Glowtat Roach had been there and knew they had vacant rooms above the restaurant. He took one for Delaney.
  • I was homeless, so when Delaney offered a bed I hitched over to the room at the diner faster than you can say 'involuntary insolvency'. Of course I shared with Anton Glowtat Roach
  • & other flat walkers evicted from the Roachmotel. Check out & never leave? My left midtarsus! Delaney asked for no deposit but expect me & Anton Glowtat Roach to help at the diner.
  • We agreed, but only because Delaney asked politely and because we were desperate. Anton was absolutely no help at all while I scrambled the eggs and wiped down the counters. I told
  • Anton to chill out & serve joe to the diners. He left the kitchen & soon screams were heard from ouside. No, he didn't spill coffee on anyone, but he did serve up Joe, our busboy,
  • who in a moment of sudden panic realized that he had mistaken arsenic for the creamer. "That's the third time this week, Joe!" Anton said. "Does this mean I'm fired?" Joe whimpered
  • . Anton sighed. Joe's whiney ineptitude was getting on his last nerve. If this continued, Joe would blow the entire experiment! "Look, listen, and SMELL the ingredients next time!"
  • As usual, Joe screwed the pooch and snorted their last container of magnesium powder. Anton threw Joe out and made a call to his materials contact in Iowa. This experiment required
  • 2 spoonfuls of sugar & Mary Poppins only had 1. She declared it a failure & invested in steampunk shoes instead. Joe lived in obscurity under a bridge and Anton inherited the farm.
