LOL....so I see!  Mind you what else would there be to do when you live in a doll house?  Looks like he's completing a carom.  It appears as though the son may follow in his footsteps; either that or he's got his pockets full of cat's eyes, steelies, crystals and bird cages.  He seems quite pleased at any rate.

That is true indeed and he certainly seems to have chalked his cue as it were.

He needs to keep it in the case!!!!.......did you recognize the youngest sprite?.....little Billy crawled into the back of an old Dodge Pickup that came in one day to buy a Rottweiler

fat man fat woman toddler

3 weeks later,the couple came back and made their best deal for a Cocker Spaniel....this time,little Susie stowed away in the pickup,a newer Apache....and thus came to join her brother and leave behind the travails of Pet Shoppery....true story Jack

Is that a Slippin' Jimmy truck deal JB?...it's a beauty.  I don't know what Marg is feeding that boy but man has he grown.....rabbit meat maybe?  Don't see the Spaniel but I'm guessing Fat man's about to ask Blondie if she wants to see his puppy, so maybe it's in the Airstream....or is that him in the back of the truck?

        There are some questions I cannot answer.....I`m afraid details of Billy`s (physical) growth spurt is off the table........I can tell you that Fat Man et al, has a sweet little parking spot just downwind of Monsanto`s Exponential Field Corn plot 41..

       FM`s deal was,free parking with electric,water/sewer and a Cinemax/HBO package........the only obligation he had to Monsanto, was to run his truck up and down the north boundary of field 41,and pick up anything that hadn`t grown there..

       He does this every 12 hours,day in/day out,with trips to the dump as necessary

_______________________________________________________________________________________

The truck is a DM `58 Apache,overdue for a trip to the dump

Blondie has seen FM`s Spaniel ....on more than one occasion
