“Godammit. Look at it: so clean. So safe. Where’s the danger? Rock and roll used to be about danger, and not metaphorically: electrocution was a real possibility. Do you know that no one on the Road Crew knew the difference between a watt and an amp until 1971?”
“That seems almost impossible, Dad.”
“Forget about ohms, man. I mean: high-visibility, glow-in-the-dark tape? What happened to a drunk guy with a flashlight leading the way?”
“Can’t have that kind of–”
“Liability.”
“–liability these days.”
…
“Son, this is no country for old roadies. The tuggers have dried up, and the fun will not blossom. It’s about the money, not the adventure. I won’t have it.”
“All right, Dad.”
“Professional Lee, your father is officially out of the roadie game. Precarious Lee retires!”
“What?”
A MAN ON A BICYCLE RIDES UP. HE IS WEARING A HAT.
“Telegram! Telegram for Mr. Lee!”
“I’m Mr. Lee! Son, take care of the man, please.”
“Here ya go, kid. A shiny nickel.”
“Dude, you shitting me? A nickel? Just don’t give me a tip if you want to give me a nickel.”
“I thought you were from the ’40’s! A nickel can buy a Negro League franchise!’
“No, it’s 2015. How can I be from the ’40’s?”
“Well, everything exists simultaneously and there is quite a bit of poorly thought-out use of the Time Sheath, and, um.”
…
“Here’s ten dollars; please don’t mention this conversation to anyone.”
“You guys are creepy.”
“Be that as it may. Dad, what did it say?”
…
“Dad?”
“They want me to run the Museum of Modern Terrible Dead Art.”
“MomTDA?”
“Yeah.”

Crap, doesn’t have anyone right. How can you miss e-v-e-r-y-o-n-e? Oh, it goots be some sort of joke.
how do I insert pictures into the comment box ? I’ve got a couple of submissions.
If you found the pictures on Google, copy and paste the link to the photo and it should show up.
When you’re doing a google image search and you find a photo you want to upload, click on the picture, then click on “view image” right next to the picture and you should be able to copy and paste that link.
