Just got this orphan as a "New in the Box"....lacking only ALL of the impressive list of accessories,driver side mirror,taillight assy with plate,pass door handle and gas cap.....seller adjusted my "paid to" soon as I wrote in....but what DOES one do with a sad case like this????
ENTER SLIPPING JIMMY !!!!....."we stand behind every car we sell !!!! (sometimes so FAR behind that we become difficult to locate)
Jimmy`s promotional VP,C.B. Fox, was assigned he task of presenting this wonder truck in it`s best light,or adding enough bedazzle to the TV spot that the truck would become secondary to it`s own fine heady aroma.....for this he chose a combination of tried `n` true gimmickry to include a talking elephant,bronco busters, and a massive bear on a tiny tractor.....turns out bear was not the LEAST bit enamored of this last bit.....more about that on page 17
C.B. Fox grows exasperated with Slippin' Jimmy's latest sales gimmick to attract customers.  Lately Jimmy has been regularly treated to "home made" brownies baked by his new "service manager" Wanda Bee Stoner, with whom he is obviously smitten, and his ideas are getting more grandiose and his perspective more peculiar by the day. Jimmy's repeated waving of that stupid peace sign and John Denveresque chant of "far out" was wearing thin with staff too. Fox knew the dealership needed help and was thankful that he had recently acquired the wise monkey Cheetya from retiring organ grinder Luigi. Fox knew Cheetya was tired of life on the street, appreciated being off the chain and tin cup and that he would use his persuasion skills in his new role of personnel & business manager to get what he needed from staff and to close those tough deals.
Fox looked around, wondering how he and Cheetya could possibly transform this gaggle of creatures into a solid car sales pitch. There was Pappa Bear, who had recently gotten in touch with his feminine side, split with Mama Bear and now demanded a polka dot skirt, flowered hat and parasol plus musical accompaniment before committing to riding the new circus sized, Murray Turbo Drive tractor around the lot. Then there was Edison (Ed) the Talking Elephant from Africa, a bona fide wonder of nature. Sadly the self adoring Ed carried a major chip on his shoulder as he felt with his talent he should at least have his own TV show. He was bitter when his agent advised him that this concept had already been done in America decades ago with a horse of the same name; plus Ed only spoke Swahili so the TV audience wouldn't understand him anyway. Ed was near his breaking point and more than anything needed off the old beer truck and into a deep mud wallow to soothe his bruised ego. Fox wished Jimmy had never discovered the tandem bull riding duo of East European rodeo stars Buck Meeoff and Rip Balzac and he felt they had very likely embellished their resumes. Sure Jimmy and Cheetya had signed them for cheap but there were issues. Buck couldn't control a bull worth a damn; in fact just today his wild ride had kicked hell out of Jimmy's latest trade-in. The beautiful, low mileage, cherry red GMC pickup now had its tail light, door handle and gas cap broken off. At the same time the injury prone Rip had once again torn his scrotum, a cowboy's worst nightmare, while being flung around and thrown before the buzzer yet again. It appeared the management team definitely had their work cut out for them with this bunch.
Having grown tired of testing various relaxation spots around the lot, Jimmy's lazy Labrador Retreiver Goldie Yawn was quietly elated. The oak lined bed of the lovely red GMC pickup was above ground, spotless and warmed by the sun...just perfect. Best of all it kept her out of the path of those wild bulls. Goldie Yawn looked about at the stressed out management team, buzzed out Slippin' Jimmy and the strange creatures and chuckled to herself; thinking "they should rename it Menagerie Motors". Lying down in the sun she gave a quiet thanks for being born just a dumb dog and drifted off to sleep.

A massive missive from the king of Jacks despite what so many have said,I think it`s a DAMN good story.BRAVO Jack!!!!
From Gladys Ossweeser , Miracle Corners ,the Dakotas :
"I read this story,aloud, to my cat Gretchen...she went under the couch and hasn`t come out for four days!!"
thanks Steve........we`re talking to Miracle Pictures
Yes; JB and I thought we would negotiate with that particular picture company as our agent said it would take a miracle to move this pile of "SHOT" forward. I'm actually considering changing my nom de plume to Jack Shot; JB and our agent say it's more reflective of my knowledge base as a creative writer. I appreciate their support and won't forget them when I make the big time soon.  Â

God bless my Aunt Gladys. She has always been easily entertained and so supportive of her special nephew....and yes I do send her money occasionally as she imbibes a bit. A number of authors have not been appreciated until after they pass on...my extended family say they pray I will be appreciated soon. Â
