We should all keep a close eye on the Bureau of Lost Socks.

There just had to be someone, somewhere, interested enough to make this site !!!

(I just usually blame the cats).

The only time ours were ever interested in socks was when we filled them (the socks, not the cats) up with catnip.

So... where's the next installment? We were promised "continuing adventures of Harv & Vera" (and one HOPES, VR, the socks and the squid) over here!

continuing to wait ....

Vivaldi looked up at Vera. "What?"

"You're in Panama! With Harv!"

"Not exactly. Actually not so much there as here, if you can believe your eyes."

"Or your nose," said Bois Aussi, "Who is this malodorous, if talking, dog, ma chere?"

"Oh, it's 'ma chere,' is it?" Vivaldi went to the corner and laid down on the doggy bed there. "Completely forgotten about your fiance, have we?"

"No! Yes! Wait..." Vera hadn't felt this confused since the first time she'd tasted peach cobbler.

"A Fiance? Damn these qwerty keyboards with no accents! You did not tell me about a fiance? That makes you so much more intriguing, ma chere!"

"Wait! Harv is not my fiance! We have an 'arrangement.' Nothing else."

"I like the way you pronounce the quotation marks, there. The only reason you're not wearing a ring is that Harv can't afford one and keeps losing the one he wins in poker before the night is through. 'Arrangement,' my eye."

"Stop! You still haven't answered my question. What are you doing here in Mexico City?"

"Oh, nothing, just thought we'd pop up here, shop for some Talavera pottery, rescue the damsel in distress, get waylaid by a gang of Nazis planning on destroying the US Pacific Fleet, get dragged off to a secret hideout by said NAzis, escape with just the collar on my neck, hear that the Nazis are going to kill Harv, and subsequently join the chihuahua cartel. Just a typical day. You?"

Vera paused to sort out the run on sentence. "WHAT?" she finally screamed out, "Did you say 'kill Harv?'"

"This Harv, he is your fiance, non?"

"This Harv, he is your fiance, non?"

Priceless ....

Everyone in the room turned to look at Vivaldi, who was scooting his butt across the carpet. "What?"

"Did you say that they were going to kill Harv?"

"That's what I heard. But you just go ahead and have this little tete a tete with French Guy, here. I'm pretty certain there were supposed to be accents in there somewhere."

"Hank, please tell Slite and Taxi Boss that I have to go! Harv is in trouble! I couldn't live with myself if he died!" Vera ran out the door and grabbed the first cab she saw. Vivaldi ran around in circles and barked, then ran after her.

"Pffft! The American women are so fickle!" said Bois Aussi. "I must get over this and cherche l'amour in other venues, non?"

He set his strong Gallic chin forward and walked resolutely to the back room.

zelda_pinwheel · 03-01-2009, 06:56 PM

it's about time !!!!!

pshrynk · 03-01-2009, 07:22 PM

Do you have any idea how long it takes to read every single post in the llounge and the Writer's Corner every day?

Oh, I guess you do.

"Hugo?"

"Yeah, Lefty?"

"Do you suppose we should be doing something right now?"

"We are doing something, Lefty. We're haggling over the price of this Talavera Vase. No! There is no way that I'm paying that price and the shipping!"

"No, I mean for the Beautiful Wearer. I'm pretty certain that we were supposed to be doing something."

"Hey, it wasn't me who lost the script!"

In a corner of the stall, a small blue frog leafed through his script and looked thoughtful.
"Yes it was. You lost yours back in Panama city the second day of first read through."

"Look, throw in the blue and orange pig, and I'll pay shipping myself! Well, yeah, but they know better than to give me an actual script. I looked at it this time and all there was in it were blank pages. So, technically, I didn't really lose my script. I always cadge off you, anyway."

"I'm just worried, Hugo."

"They'll find us when they need us, Lefty. How much for the ash trays?"

In a corner of the vendor's stall, a small blue frog leafed through his script and looked thoughtful.
