This really is a good write. Is your heartbeat back to normal yet? Her dress didn't leave a lot to the imagination. Please don't retire, your write with great humor which is so needed in today's depressing times. Entertainment that produces a smile is so needed.

"Ann, I don't think Olive Garden is the right setting for a concubine, Harvard Law, rich sugar daddy investment scheme." Okay, now that was funny... almost as funny as the 'card' comment. Uhh, she didn't give you one per chance? Asking for a friend -
Love situations like this. They can be far more entertaining than people realize.

I begin by saying I missed you. Both your posts and reviews. As for this piece... "I wondered if she needed a hand," struck a magical chord, and the ending was simply delightful!

    Thanks, Tom. I'm not very active anymore, but a couple of stories do come along. Terry.

Okay...this was very funny. Probably a mail order bride. Our are is flooded with old white dudes with young Asian girls hanging on thier arms that don't speak English.

One fella I know is on his third one, because usually after they loose the 24 month conditional status on their green cards they bail and take off on the old dudes.

This line was certainly Terryesk:

I wondered if she needed a hand.

Looking forward to the book!

    Thanks, Douglas. I never thought of that; you could be right.
    The book is set to be published on September 26. Thank you. Terry.

It seems no matter how old guys get, they never quit being boys. I find that sort of disappointing. How about the couple in the booth are grandpa and granddaughter. They are sitting so close because grandpa had a little accident, and she is blocking the view until his daughter can get here with a change of clothes. Karen

Hello Terry,
once I got a look at the picture, I had a hard time concentrating on the dialogue. Holy Toledo! I'm sure there would be no shortage of interest in clients willing to invest in this gal's venture, but a reality check would probably be in order. It would be cheaper to take a trip to Nevada. Thanks for sharing this. It's an eye opener.
Have a blessed day.
Tom

Well, this old cowboy is already out of bullets so early in the week, but I certainly wish I wasn't and could reward your fine story properly. Kind of makes an old boy think if they cut the top of your head off, little kitties would crawl everywhere. I won't to use another word than kitties. LOL. Thanks for sharing.

    LOL, you should have been there, Ric. You might have added some drug lords! And, of course, Tucker would have been there for a rescue if necessary. Thanks. Terry.

I'm glad that you and Ann are meeting up in person and planning a book together! That's fabulous!
Enjoyed your little speculation about the fellow restaurant go-ers. Sounds odd to have a Rolex wearer at a place where I would go. Never seen one of those.
