((JBB blanches at the thought of getting down 'n' dirty with the butt in question))

JBB:

** Uh, Mr Twist, you mind if we go? This old timer's givin' me the creeps **

Daniel:
YOUNG JACK:

((looks down at JBB again.))

**Sure thing...I'll be right back with yer pen, sir.**

((Jack lays down some cash on the counter and heads out the door, wavin' at the CLERK's offer a change. He holds the brown paper bag with one hand as he opens the door for JBB to roll back out.))

**Feel better now?**

saucycobblers:
JBB:

** Thankye kindly Mr Twist. Now, back ta this postcard. Ahm not too good with words when it comes ta... um... sweet wefted nothings, so I thought I'd borrow from a friend a mine... Mr Peter Gabriel. Ya know, ah toured with Genesis back in '72, just afore he left and did that there Cranberry Hill and Nail Hammer an' all that caper. But that's another story... er... ah was thinkin' ah usin' this...**

((JBB clears his throat of creamy phlegm))

**Love I get so lost, sometimes
Days pass and this emptiness fills my heart
When I want to run away
I drive off in my car
But whichever way I go
I come back to the place you are.

Ya remember when we was drivin' away from Broken Arse in yer little truck, Mr Twist? You weren't the only one who wuz weepin' creamy tears... Ya reckon ya kin fit all a that on the postcard?**

Daniel:
YOUNG JACK:

**Sure we can... I jes' gotta write small.**

((Jack looks at his handiwork.))

**Ain't much room for a signature.**

((JBB's last words finally start to sink in. Tears quickly rise to his eyes.))

**Oh, dang it all, JBB... Why'd ya have to bring up leavin' the mountain?**

saucycobblers:
((JBB sniffs loudly))

** Sorry Mr. Twist. Don't worry 'bout the signature. He'll know who it's from. Reckon ya could post it fer me? **

((JBB wonders if he'll ever hear from his beloved loopy, wefted one again and swallows hard))

**Would ya mind puttin' me back in yer pocket? Bin a long day...**
