3. Well, Sunday night - there you have it.

Nothing going on, what's a guy to do?

That town is about 50 miles from where I currently hang my hat. Trust me, after about 7 in the evening, Wally World is probably the local hot spot. And, other than the folks employed in the local hospitality industry and, arguably, some of the younger nurses and techs, this guy is a Yoot, A Rebel Without A Cause. Heh. His grandparents probably live there too.

The local Chamber of Commerce ought to hire him as a poster boy. It might liven the place up, and it would definitely please his parole officer.

Edit: My mistake - Sunday night, not Monday.
