the cluster around the bar looked at him uncomfortablycouple gals muttered What a mean thing to say
                                                                                                            I didnt say it
he did I repeat it because I agree 


he said  I think I could do with having my brain defragged.

 Yes  Thawoud be beneficial he couldnt have been more enthusiastic 
they viedengaged in maddening back and forths as he stubbornly disremembers who he either conversed with or saw on youtube recently confusing him with the woman who talked about October 28 kind of glaring a year wasnt attached to it it was his kidbrothers birthday '69 


they had been texting about the upcoming Oath Keepers trial  jury selection completed early that day

  :  :  Just for the record  October 28 The March on Rome 

just for the record was nomenclature he used that he disliked  
                                                                  :  :  Out of context – what are you talking about?

  :  :  Deduce. Strongmen (book u got me)… fascism… March on Rome.

deduce again vocabulary meant to incite him  suggesting he arrive at either date or march with reasoningdraw a logical conclusion
  :  :  Saying March on Rome means nothing to me. Or Oct28. What?

  :  :  You told me yesterday the March on Rome was nearing its 100th celebration… but not until Oct28… That’s all.

he imagined Porky the Pig That’s all, folks! 
                                           :  :  I did not – only handed the book off to you from the library because you wanted to read it – otherwise had I said I would have recalled the date – news to me. 


he didnt text for five hours
                             when he did it he replied to a text he sent him minutes earlier  :  :  Sweet moon a new moon slivered brilliantwhite low in the sky 
                                         texted he saw it was watching 7 Years in Tibet on Netflix 

maybe if his brain was defragged he could recall
                                                    but in the meantime they were going to have to remain dependent on his recollections his relatively unerring long long  long  memory 
                                                                           if he didnt lose his mind first

  Christ  how many times on a single occasion is one supposed to be honest  really

she handed him nine dollars the difference of three dollarsthe difference between $21.99 and $18.99 times three holdingreading his store receipt she somefuckinghow concluded he bought three bags of catfud three times three equals nine or three plus three plus three equals ninehe didnt know how she did her math  the total purchase on his receipt was $30.87  three times the erred $22 is $66 less three pennies is $65.97 
                                                                              he hadnt a clue how she devised he bought three thirteen pound bags  over his shoulder a canvas bag  the catfud stuck out of the top of it 
                                                                                                     seemed  Obvious

he handed the nine dollars back explaining she made an errorwas wrong

she blinked real big nice eyes  a petite young gal 
                                                     thats when she said I thought you bought three bags

handing him the five spot back Thank you for your honesty.

he pondered

let the five lay flat on his palm

  Yare welcome

he withdrew his hand folded the bill into others in order before he excused himself thanked her for her time 


walking outadjusting the bag on his shouldercrushing the top of the catfud so it wouldnt jab him in the armpit as he walked the mile and a half home he decided one time is honest two times stupid 
                                                                                   he wasnt fond of stupid AND this was an ongoing trifle between him and the market it repeatedly erred in its favor that how business works it was his business to catch their errors 
                                 BUYER BEWARE
