The Eternal Night #163

by

I got behind the chair and pressed the barrel of the gun to the fat woman's head just as the second goon walked in.

"Okay, gentlemen," I said, "drop the heaters slowly and then lie face down on the floor, or I'll punch a hole in this tub and watch the lard ooze out."

They just stood there and the woman said, "For God's sake, you morons, do what he says! He's crazy!"

They both drew their pistols, dropping them.

I looked at Mason and said, "Get the guns."

He did and I repeated my order to lie face down...

    Yeah, he does. And you mentioned lard in two or three comments and I smiled each time because I knew Jake was going to say that about lard. And the previous thing about her not being a lady too! You oughta be writing these because you've been spot on predicting what he's going to say!

    No, not at all. You just know the character well.
