arrivin' at the scene of my reassignment, however, it
occurs to me that perhaps I would have been wiser to
keep my big yap in a closed position.

My new job really stinks . . . and I mean to tell you
this is meant as literal as possible. All I had to do, see,
was stand at the end of a conveyor belt and inspect the
end product as it came off the line. Now, when I say
"end product," this is also meant to be interpretated
very literal-like. The quicker of you have doubtlessly
perceived by now the product to which I am referrin',




but for the benefit of the slower readers and sober editors,
I will clarify my allusions.

What I am inspectin' is rubber Doggie Doodle, which
comes in three sizes: Embarrassing, Disgusting, and Un-
believable. This is not, of course, how they are labeled,
but rather how I choose to refer to them after a mere few
moments' exposure. Now since, as I have mentioned
before, this is a class operation, it is to be expected that
our product has to be noticeably different than similar
offerin's on the market. It is unfortunate that as the Final
Inspector, I must deal with the finished product, which
means before it goes into the boxes, but after the ' 'Realis-
tic, Life-like Aroma that Actually Sticks to Your Hands''
is added.

It is also unfortunate that I am unable to locate either
the foreman or the two jokers who had advised me for
the rest of the afternoon. Of course, I am not permitted
the luxury of a prolonged search, as the conveyor belt
continues to move whether the inspector is inspectin' or
not, and in no time at all the work begins to pile up. As
I am not particularly handy with a shovel, I deem it
wisest to continue workin' and save our discussion for
a later, more private time.

Now mind you, the work doesn't really bother me all
that much. One of the chores me and Nunzio toss coins
over back home is cleanin' up after the Boss's dragon,
and after that. Doggie Doodle really looks like a bit of
an understatement, if you know what I mean. If anything,
this causes me to chuckle a bit as I work, for while I am
on assignment Nunzio must do the honors all by himself,
so by comparison my end of the stick looks pretty clean.
Then too, the fact that Roxie and Sion is now playin'
