The Spot Was Clearly Marked. Chuck Pace © 2007
The skies never opened up. The rains failed to come. The day turned to night and Heroes was back on TV. There were people out at the Chatterbox being insensitive to each other and their fellow denizens of the night air. There were beer fouls and faux pas and general mischievous, but the truck was out of the shop and running like a new calf wanting to kick up heals and enjoy life. A carburetor was misshipped and shipped and finally installed and tuned, and the circle was reconnected. John David was out in the Tylenol Tube Van, Mel was back from her reenactment adventures and nobody died (for very long anyway) and the fight was taken to the front, and the cavalry arrived and saved the day right on schedule. Jack and Joan were conspicuous, Travis and Liz were conspicuously absent. Kay came to the box and nobody got juiced, Glen Bucy spent a quite moment or two in the Circle City before todays flight to England to see Shannon and Michael Brown, and the ACLU tells us its illegal to Trust in God, at least in public view or on our license plates, and the day is going to be sunny-cloudy and mild.
