This part is true

 

Places, People and Observations

 

Spain:
The first and most obvious thing we noticed was the sky in Spain was much lower than anywhere else we’ve been, and it wasn’t just me who noticed it, we both did.

Michigan:
The cold or rainy days only came around on the weekends.  Monday through Friday, when we had to sit in school, it was always warm and pleasant outside.

California:
We met a man who called himself Al the Bugman.  His business card just said BUGMAN.  He was in his late 50’s and had a gravely voice, probably from inhaling various pesticides for years.  He must have been very good at his job, for 21 years, the entire time we lived in California there was never a bug problem.

Cheers:
We met some very interesting people at a local neighborhood bar.  It was called Hooky’s (attitude adjustment center). There was a large Greek man named Goose who enjoyed very large sandwiches with plenty of garlic.  There was usually an empty barstool on each side of him. There was a gay bartender who was a good cook and tried to strangle his mother. A lady bartender who couldn’t add or subtract and would hold out a handful of cash and say, “Take what’s yours.” because she couldn’t figure how much change you should get.

Florida:
Our next-door neighbors are often quite noisy. In the morning, they are the crows and at night it’s the owls.  The quiet ones are the ones with teeth.  As neighbors, they keep to themselves, but should you pass by them too closely they may eat the small dog at the end of your leash.
