...chicken! The largest bucket of Kentucky Fried Chicken I had ever seen (original recipe), along with biscuits, sides of mashed taters, and a bottle of Pepsi.

Dense vegetation suddenly filled the fetid room. I saw what I thought were quick moving red and pink apes scrounging through the underbrush.

I shut my eyes again, and began deep breathing exercises to clear my head. But I could still hear rustling all around me.

I opened my eyes and found the source of the rustling. On the far side of the room were 6 guys with bandannas covering their faces, riding horses and chasing cattle.

All of them; guys, horses, cattle, were no bigger than a mouse. Where the hell was I?

"Welcome to my world you little man," said a voice from out of the ether.
I opened my eyes expecting to see the Devil Incarnate staring at me with large red eyes; instead it was Moriarty's spirit looming large above me and I suddenly remembered I had been reading of my hero 'Sherlock' recently, and had delved into one of his hallucinatory experiments! was this all but just a dream? |

I retrieved my tobacco stash from the toe of a Persian slipper and packed a bowl. I lit the pipe and contemplated all that had happened since the beginning of this thread...

Just as I reached out for the 'phone the door to my office creaked open, and in strolled a stunning blonde.
There was an unmistakable mysterious air about her, and a mischievous glint in her black button eyes; needless to say I now ignored the 'phone, letting it ring until it stopped. |

The cleavage from her ample breasts was the only sight I saw or needed to see at the time. One cannot describe what would have transpired if she were bold enough to reveal more in a moment of desperation.

Fortunately there were no moments of desperation. In she strolled as confidently as she looked; onto my tatty unkempt desk she placed an envelope, a key and a sprig of thyme.

Head swirling, I sank into my desk chair and rasped "What can I do for you sweetheart?"
Smiling enigmatically, she wafted out through the door and vanished from my life. |

I knew what was in the envelope, my fee.
The key was the one that I had accidentally left in the outside of my door; and the sprig of thyme - that was for my headache! |

Now that I had enough thyme to do things properly, I began to review my notes from the beginning of the case. While flipping through my notebook, a business card slid out and fluttered to the carpet.
