Love Contrivance (14)

   
   "Love Contrivance (14)"
   
   Was the middle of the night, as they say--them nocturnal hours when the midnight owls poked their mystical orbs of gold out, and all the coyotes' eyes became ignited ever-lasting, like eternal survival in the headlights, them usually making a dash to an American safari of safety, most of the time.
   In the Franklin area warehouse, I was rolling newspapers next to Wally--the front page was showcasing some Pop-Culture crap not worthy of mentioning, and Wally with the wisdom was running @ the mouth, informing:  "Hell boy, they found a nuclear base in Greenland from when Reagan wanted to protect us from the Soviets and aliens.  I know they've found the thang, that's totally right:  THE THANG--in Antarctica.  My brother-in-law has been to every Continent but Antarctica.  Hell, even Al Gore and his prized bull galloped down to Antarctica one time.  Plus, them Volunteers are ranked 10th in the college football polls.  Big Orange gonna do it, or come close this year."
   I thought to mention that I liked Notre Dame.  Didn't bother.  Old Wally was on a roll.  And it seemed that the newsprint never knew when to stop.  Like all of us.  Oh well, till death do us part save for the nice ones.
