Back in 2019,when Carl took early retirement,along with a partial disability,some of his work habits were hard to shake...especially the one where he`d walk to the back of his delivery truck,three or four times a day,and a bottle of beer would obligingly "fall" off the truck....not one of the other route drivers were surprised when Carl`s truck went missing from the lot on the same evening that Carl signed his "get out of jail" paperwork up in the main office....
At first,he kept ST766 parked in the woods behind the half-built subdivision.....even bought a new truck and camper with some of the settlement money so he and Margaret could "camp out" and be near their loved one
As winter made itself known, the woods became alternately too icy or too muddy.......a new "hideout" was decided upon, and Carl drove his old work truck to a former hot property made invisible when the Osceola Mills spur was re-routed in 2007.....the site of the derelict Rosies Diner.........a spot where it would remain at rest until the last Budweiser had been uncapped
Â
Emptied of beer and nearly drained of diesel,766 became more of a liability than an asset.......Carl once again parked his ever expanding derriere in the sprung Bostrom for one last "shift".....the trackside out on Plasserburg had plenty of "donated" cars,trucks,sofas and refrigerators.......ST766 would feel right at homeÂ
2022.....A crime this inept,never remains unsolved indefinitely.....two weeks ago, the knock came at Carl`s door..
Â
..after a brief search,Federal agents discovered a key piece of evidentiary material,hanging on the wall behind the queen-size waterbed

Well done! A classic John.

As Carl was led away in cuffs, his relieved wife Margaret quietly delighted in the thought that her drunken husband would soon know how it felt to be someone's bitch. Spotting the lecherous "bird watcher" Ted "Pud" Pullen, secreted at the edge of the woods yet again, Marg lit a cigarette and struck a flirtatious pose; feeling secure that her next meal ticket was about to be reeled in.

As Carl was led away in cuffs, his relieved wife Bernice quietly delighted in the thought that her drunken husband would soon know how it felt to be someone's bitch. Spotting the lecherous "bird watcher" Ted "Pud" Pullen, secreted at the edge of the woods yet again, Bernice lit a cigarette and struck a flirtatious pose; feeling secure that her next meal ticket was about to be reeled in.
oh you needn`t worry about ol` Carl and the Missus.....He did a turnstile pivot and is already work released to Waste Management.....Â
......long as that sweet Co` Cola settlement money has legs,Margaret aint about to "default"

Bernice or Margaret?
Thank you for your question David......her name is Margaret,but she is known to several of her paramours as "Bodacious Bernice"....she has been linked romantically with the Fat Man,with whom she has a grandchild,and more recently, Lt Frank Columbo

Correction made...thankfully before Carl saw it (I assume he is a Forum member...isn't everyone?). Thanks for the cover attempt JB. Â
Â
Thankfully the child has his mother's eyes and not Fat Man's. He definitely wouldn't have Columbo's. Btw...I didn't realize they socialized with The Ontario Ogre. Small world...so to speak.

among the cast of the Fat Man,Columbo,and even Trench Coat Tommy,and General Malady,no one really sees eye-to-eye anymore

quite opportune that you should bring up the general`s knees.....it just so happens that Carl was once married to her.....the good general`s autocratic helicopter parenting style eventually led to a disillusionment of vows
