So you're walking down the road with one hand in your pocket and the other holding a cigarette. A tall slender man walks past you, he was wearing a red coat and a large purple and yellow striped hat. He had a monkey on his shoulder. The monkeys name is Walter. Walter likes to bite people. The mans name is George. George and Walter. You slowly turn your head in the opposit direction to gaze at George and Walter. George is walking towards the gas station and Walter is picking his nose. You trip and fall, you sprain your ankle. Oops. You've lost your cigarette in the grass. Thankfully it just rained so you don't have to worry about a fire. George comes to you and helps you up, Walter bites you on the arm. Walter doesn't have any teeth so it doesn't really hurt, it's just annoying. You still slap Walter and he runs back to Georges shoulder. George escorts you to the gas station, you sit down at the bench and call your friend. Your friends name is Happy, he's named so because he is a huge stoner and always has a slap-happy grin on his face. He's a pleasent guy though, always willing to help his friends in a pinch and, even being a stoner, is a hard worker. You decide that Happy and George should meet so you start to tell George about Happy. George seems like a nice guy, but he doesn't say a thing. Maybe he is mute? He smiles and nods. George opens his mouth and there is no tongue. Oh, they should definitely meet. Happy would love George, maybe not so much Walter. Walter is a buzz-kill. Walter steals Georges hat and runs down the street. George shakes his head, a head full of long dreads. You offer to run and get Walter, but George shakes his head and waves his hands. Walter gets hit by a truck. Bye bye Walter. At least it was a quick death. George scoops up Walters remains from the road, George doesn't really seem upset, maybe a bit down but not broken. George buries the monkey in a patch of grass by the side of the road. The truck driver pulled over and apologized to George he just smiled and hugged the driver. The hat was too bloody to wear so George buried it with Walter. You went to the gas station and bought George a replacement hat, it's not as great as his old hat but it was a good temporary replacement. George smiles, dons the hat, and gives you a hug. George smells like earth, not a bad or even bothersom smell, just an earthy smell. You think he may be either homeless or poor, but he doesn't really talk much so you can't get to know him. Happy finally shows up in his old bug, Happy is in a good mood as usual. Happy strolls up and shows you his new lighter, a flip-open metal lighter with a pewter marijuana leaf glued to it. Nifty, you thought, nifty. You introduce Happy to George and George to Happy. They smile and hug, Happy indicates that he knows George already from a long time ago and is happy to see him again. George takes out a pen and a piece of paper and writes something down. He hands the paper to Happy and then writes something down again and hands it to you. It's his phone number, cool. He must like us. You like George, he seems really cool. Happy, George and I bid our farewells and I climb into Happy's haphazard mess of an old bug. We putter off to Happys place for some relaxation and time killing. Tomorrow is work, and you dread it with every fiber of your being. text>
