  • Jimmy just about had it with the constant moaning and groaning about everything of his coworker Patsy. His happy go lucky and positive attitude toward life was shaken by this angry
  • young man. Jimmy drew on his natural optimism, reasoning that any young guy named Patsy would likely be unhappy. "So, Patsy," said Jimmy. "How about changing your name to
  • Mildred?. It is so much more zen than Patsy." The young man looked at Jimmy and said "I like the name Patsy it just has more buzz to it." Jimmy knew Patsy would be putting himself
  • in front of a moving train because Jimmy was going to push Patsy in front of a train. Except, when Jimmy went to the train station, he saw Patsy's little boy. Chubby. Pathetic.
  • "Come along, chum," he said to Patsy's little boy as they boarded the train. "Maybe you could help me catch a shark." Jimmy did wonder about "pathetic" because he thought he lacked
  • aplomb, and you can't catch a shark without a dash of that. Jimmy looked up at the man who himself resembled a shark, a hammerhead shark at that. When their train arrived at the
  • Hammersmith tube station, there was a crowd waiting. It was rush hour and they were looking for Jimmy Jazz. He was nowhere to be found and had a gig at 8pm that day! It sold out.
  • I stepped out from the crowd and started tooting my own horn to a scat based on a Jimmy Jazz standard. Then Candy Johnson, stepped forward with his sax and joined in. Then Clarence
  • Williams joined in playing jazz piano. The issue was that this was a marching band. It took twelve men to pull the grand piano down the boulevard and two to push his piano bench.
  • Things took a turn for the worse when the parade went down Telegraph Hill. The piano rolled over the rest of the band and Williams chased after it, still playing, until it crashed.

    Jimmy should have just ignored Patsy negativity. Now the whole band is hospitalized.
