It wasn't enough that Coop roughed him up, he wanted to put the stink breath on him!

Love so much. Car scraping on it's way in dissolved the last of any words I saw and I was just in the story.

As always, so much going on in your short tales. Tales told on three levels. These lines shimmered on the page : "... but the melancholy was dripping off him in waves..." and "... the kind of short choking laugh that darts out in front of anger..." I hope old Coop gets his beer.

I was at the record store the other day searching through the used vinyl when I came across a pretty good copy of the Velvet Underground's Loaded. The vinyl itself looked great, the cover had a little wear but also in good shape, except someone named Cindy wrote her name on the cover in the pink smog rising from the subway entrance. The price said 15$ I took it to the counter and said to the owner " I'll give ya 10 bucks for it" he said " but it's the rare Velvet Underground & Cindy" a joke based on the later collaboration with Nico. I laughed and said "ok the joke was worth 2$ how about 12" He laughed and replied 10 is good.

First time accidentally walking into the men’s room was at the Tipperary. I think I was 14.
