1 " Since I didn't have a candy wrapper to help me with the bad connection I was about to have, I resorted to using vocal sound effects. When Agent Carson picked up, I started my performance. " Agent... Agent Carson," I said, panting into the phone." Yes, Charley." She seemed unimpressed, but I wasn't about to stop now." I--I know who the kshshshshshsh are." " I'm a little busy right now, Davidson. What is a Ksh, and why do I care?" " I'm sorry. My kshshsh... is kshshsh... ing." I repeat. What is a Ksh? And why do I care if it is ksh-ing?" She was a tough one. I knew I should have waited and bought a Butterfinger at the Jug-N-Chug. Those wrappers crakled like Rice Krispies on a Saturday morning. " You aren't listeni--kshshsh." " You're really bad at this." " Bank ro-ksh-ers. I know who they kshshsh." " Charley, if you don't cut this crap out." I hung up and turned off my phone before she could figure out what I was trying not to tell her and call back. "
2 " I was woken early and had breakfast with the guru. We had some spicy Rice Krispies and a spicy biscuit with some really sweet, milky tea. Not the way I normally like it, but I drank it anyway as I didn’t want to offend him. I suppose that is my heart telling me how to act instead of my head again. My arse may get involved later though.
