Round 661!

A Continuation of the "I Do" Theme

[Fran]

Down in Texas Jack's father-in-law died and Lureen, who inherited the farm equipment business, showed a skill for management and hard deals.  Jack found himself with a vague managerial title, traveling to stock and agricultural machinery shows.  He had some money now and found ways to spend it on his buying trips.  A little Texas accent flavored his sentences, "cow" twisted into "kyow" and "wife" coming out as "waf."  He'd had his front teeth filed down and capped, said he'd felt no pain, and to finish the job grew a heavy mustache.
