they walked in the old part of town many of the buildings are required to have signs affixed near entryways THIS BUILDING IS AN UNREINFORCED MASONRY STRUCTURE  possibly murderers accomplices of palm trees insurance companies demanded were cut down because their fronds damaged cars that parked under them and might possibly injury or kill someone

                        he argued at City Council meetings not to allow vehicles to park beneath them or post signage that advises drivers if their vehicles are speared by falling fronds it is a risk they assume

                                                                                               in the Councils infinite wisdumb they voted unanimously to have the palms cut downcut down hunredyear old trees that buildings were designed around  ASSHOLES

they entered one such building to have coffee it was brisk outside

                                                                       Hey Trotsky . .

. . Would you quit thats not his name

I know, but I use it as a trigger to help me remember his name, he doesn’t mind.

Really

Yes; called the Von Restorff Effect.

Von Restorff Yacant remember his name is Tyler but you can remember the name of a mnemonic technique

Yeah, I remember it by thinking German Restore.

However Trotsky two syllables yare unable to recall Tyler

                                                               Also two syllables

Don’t know what to tell you.

Ya might concede yare an idiot

Tyler was animatedalways is  he was roasting beans he thought perhaps it was a contact high  he caffeinated without ingesting it

             sounded plausible

                                  enthusiastically he also chimed he was considering running for mayor he and a buddy were discussing splitting mayoral responsibilities be co-mayors 

So Tyler he said A day mayor an a night mayor  Id assume youd be the nightmare

Tyler looked at him pushed his glasses down on his nose Nightmare?

Sure doncha think Yare outlandish usually thinking outside of the box those are reasons why we enjoy having our coffee here We want to support you

                                      Id be happy to helpvolunteer if you decide to run

Wow! I’d have a campaign sta . .

. . Volunteers . .

. . Aww come on! We could put together an outrageous campaign . .

. . An still not win

But we’d present, arguably, thoughtful alternative solutions to the city’s problems.

                                                                                       Tyler then turned to his buddy  And Dude, you’ll have to quit calling me Trotsky.
