Subject: BS: Billy Bass blabs again!
Well, there was this huge garage sale today at the place across the road with all the storage units, so I got up early and went and took a look. Junk, junk, junk, and more junk. Lots of old VHS movies. CDs of Def Leppard and Ted Nugent. A big Phil Esposito poster, very idealized. Numerous pieces of slightly over the hill furniture. And more junk.
And then, as I picked my way between some boxes, a recording of some inane song burst forth at my feet. I looked down...and there it was! A genuine, certified Big Mouth Billy Bass on a board, and he was singing for me. As Billy swung his fishy face out in my direction, I could see that he was still in full operating condition. His motion sensors were still working, and had detected my approach, thus causing him to spring into action.
These things of course are quite invaluable and are therefore in great demand. I was tempted to make an immediate offer. But then I remembered that I already have 15 of them at home, all fully operational. Did I really need one more?
I didn't buy the Big Mouth Billy Bass, but bought a coat stand instead and came home. Now I'm tortured by the thought that someone else may buy him.
