The immense Hebraic gurkin stopped, impailed on one of Pradip's gold
capped front teeth. He dropped his colonoscope and it hit the hard earth
with a sound not unlike an over-inflated Whoopie Cushion. Marlene chuckled
with delight as this was the first time she was able to get Pradip's
attention. Marlene stepped into full sight revealing here muscular body
draped in a sequined cover-all made of spandex and Gortex. Her stainless
steel prosthesis made a bell like tinkling sound and made little round
marks in the damp ground as she approached him. Pradip knew what he
must do, as his rent was 2 months overdue. He swung his now empty
blowgun around. Marlene with her athletic instincts spun out of the
way deflecting the blow with her matching ditty bag. "Cut it out,
Prad....",she said coyly, "I just wanted to share this with you!"
She pulled a wrinkled telegram from the bag. "It's a letter from
Spielberg. He wants me for a movie. I knew those lessons I took
at the Ali MacGraw School For Acting (Drive Thru Division) would
pay off someday!"
