Hello Mary what are you doing today.
- Hello Mary what are you doing today.
- "Saving your arse," said Mary. "Now cut the niceties and get down." She unloaded a round on the vessel's bartender. He said, "Lead in me mimosa? Ye blackhearts best run along, or
- Joan Jett is coming back. Mary decided it was time to skin
- a cow. Mary was Joan Jett's number one fan. She tanned the leather to create a tooled bustier with the letters "Joan Rocks!" in rhinestones. At the concert,
- Joan invited Mary onstage. Mary was way too excited to refuse. There was no return to the old status quo after that. It was so clear. She joined The Blackhearts. The rest is
- just a bunch of dead ends; from dead end deals to dead end boys and then men. Mary's heart just wan't black enough to be a Blackheart and eventually Joan had to let Mary go. Near
- the end of their partnership Joan began feeding Mary small quantities of arsenic, knowing it would either blacken her heart enough for her to stay or send her gently into the abyss
- like a sailboat launching into a calm lake. Mary gradually developed a taste for the poison. Joan's small, stingy doses allowed Mary to build up her strong resistance to arsenic.
- Mary stayed up nights, pondering how her resistance to Joan's arsenic might save the world, or at least make her a few bucks. Then, quite by accident, she managed to spill some
- of it on some old lace she had on her dresser.Lo & behold, the lace whitened &its knots tightened. Why, in mere seconds,it looked like new! Joan rubbed it over her body & CA-CHING!

Thank you! I was trying to make reference to the classic play "Arsenic and Old Lace", actually. :)
