Theresa the waitress took their orders

he hadnt been to a restaurant in a goodly while and was far more interested in talking with friends who he hadnt seen in years than looking through the menu

one deviated from her usual didnt order the breakfast burrito 

                                                                      so he did 

Theresa one thing please could you ask the kitchen to make the eggs as wet as possible  To understand I usually eat eggs raw

Raw? he could see her stomach flip in her face

Yes thas a tell  Ask the cook to cook them as little as possible 

                                                                  Howbout this refrain  The wetter the better

his galpal sitting beside him rapped him in the ribs 

                                                      You really just say that? 

Theresa straightened up smirked 

                                   The wetter the better.

he yesd Theresa an to his cohort I did  True yah

Oh my God.

Theresa smiled at her He took the words out of my mouth.

Quit girls were talkinbout my eggsjust talkinbout how I like my eggs  Wet

Right. they rolled their eyeslaughed together

the gal across the table was clueless 

                                       What's this all about? 

How I prefer my eggs

Yeah. sarcastically How he likes his eggs.

Ya really gotta say it like tha

So how did you order your eggs?

Wet

Ugh.

I second her ugh.

An neither one of you are eating my burrito

                                             Be grateful I didnt order eggs sunnyside up Theresa  make sure they jiggle when you walk 

they looked at one another

The eggs jiggle while Theresa walks

almost over each other Well . . she certainly has plenty to jiggle had you ordered sunnyside up

She certainly do

                 Though Id hate like hell to tip her in the manner or place Id tip a stripper

Nebraska Representative Don Bacon “argued in no uncertain terms that (Republicans are) entitled not only to pursue dramatic spending cuts, but also to threaten our collective well-being in pursuit of far-right goals.”

   taking a step back 

                         Mr Bacons oath “I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States (14th Amendment) against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion (George Santos); and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God.” 

Bacon was elected in 2016 – maybe winning three terms he knows it rote and therefore does not understand what the words mean  

I do not believe within our Constitution it is written representatives are entitled “to pursue drastic spending cuts, but also to threaten our collective (financial) well-being in pursuit of far-right goals” over the full faith and credit of the United States 

either someone is in office to help better the American Project or they are there for the selfish betterment of themselves

he couldnt help himself 

                        likely a flaw in his righteous personality that he didnt mind expressing countervailing arguments welcome 

he wanted to continue on in the vein the lack of equivalence false equivalency between the Democratic Party and Republicans 

              it aint coin  not heads or tails 

that said 

           if Bush the Younger could roll out Office of Legal Counsel  OLC John Yoos decision regarding Enhanced Interrogation – in violation of US lawAMERICA doesnt tortureAbu Ghraib God bless you – Ofuck no we didnt  we handed that deal off to black sites scattered around the world countries coerced “willing” to torture people for us – products of Extraordinary Rendition – which only makes sense  Americas Exceptional shes Indispensable 

   if Bushwhacker and his Neocon cohorts got away with it  President Biden can play the Full Faith and Measure card the Constitutions 14th Amendment

she was a singer in a band playing at a bar he frequented

first time he witnessed live music there which was to say they may have when he wasnt there

she was sultry tasty  her voice matched her looks 

                                                     he had to buy her a drink 

usually House covered the band but he didnt see any glasses among the instruments an equipment when he came in mid-set  

he knew the House it didnt pay any more than it had to  was in a word shrewd 

she didnt bother with the stepsjumped off the short stagesidestepped guys who were attracted to her like iron filings to a magnet 

         she walked right up to him Buy me a drink?

he took plenty of sneers Thaswha I was thinking 

I read your mind. he believed her I’m Jodie. she raised her hand to shake

                                                                            taking it firm grip Joe

walking to the bar he passed the House who was making a beeline to Jodie

tossed a look over his shoulder House hadnt reached her she was shaking her head no

House wasnt there when he returned 

                                        Here ya go he set the drinks on the table 

My my my, pretty close to reading my mind.

Ya gave me hints I paired the whisky

You paired? tilted her head appreciatively

Yah stole the line from wine snobs One thing they got right

Not a fan?

I am not Not wine not snobs 

                                But you probably read tha

Jesus he cleared his throat Yare something

You have no idea.

sometimes ya gotta take the bull by the horns 

                                               this story had him by the balls

Republican Missouri senator Josh Hawley who in 2021 fistpumped the January 6 insurrectionists then was filmed hours later scampering through the bowels of the Capitol FOR HIS LIFE has written a book called Manhood: The Masculine Virtues America Needs

AwComon  he cant be the only one howling

to quote Hawley

                  . . . get out of your parents’ basement (kind of stereotypical – unless young white men truly enjoy the entitlement to live in their parents’ basement – how nice is that? able to own a house) . . . maybe ask a girl on a date, even better get married, start a family, get a job; we need you to be a contributor in this society.

   now mebbe its just himBUT doesnt preceding asking a girl on a date getting married starting a family REQUIRE having a job first 

                 unless – white Missouri males  perhaps religious to their eyeballs – can truly enjoy the entitlement to have their wife and children live in his parents basement

if dat true 

           hes a middleaged white orphan who would love to be adopted he wouldnt drag extra mouths into the familydidnt need a modest 70inch HD flatscreen TV or hundreds of cable stations College/NFL GAMEDAY packages

he wasnt a picky eater either

Where did you go? her voice hushed by the muslin hood

Was exited stage left hooked deus ex machinaed snatched she giggled without an ask get your mind out of the gutter You said snatchedSometimes I did sometimes the crew hypersensitive jealous voyeurs tha they are demand tithes attention

I was having too much fun You cool

We turn ‘em on? 

Hands on cocks fingers on the triggers

   Yes yes, I am cool.

Thought so

           gently taking the leash she held in her hands he turnedtossed the intricate chain over his shoulderwent to give it a tug but she was up against his back warm orbs on his shoulder blades  she was as tall as he

                                                                                   Horsey ride.

Yare a step ahead of me Maybe you ought to give me a ride they giggled obscenelyapparent then off to a side he watched them  they were washed outreduced to lines drawn an opaque transparency it silvered now boundsilhouettes a silvered curtain moving to their breaths darkening in places moist then an acute grid projected against it madeup of gameboard faces playing cards tarot tickets boarding passes menus the images growing smaller the images multiplying denser the curtain stiffenscongeals shatters puzzlesgeometrically falling bit by bit the bits like ash
