It feels like Saturday

Fritz Hamilton

    “It feels like Saturday, Luca.”
    “It is Saturday, Fred,”
    “But yesterday was Saturday.”
    “It was, Fred.”
    “That’s confusing.”
    “It is, Fred.”
    “Didn’t ISIL cut off a thousand heads yesterday, Luca?”
    “They miscounted. It was 2,00l.”
    “Isn’t that sci fi?”
    “It is.”
    “Didn’t a head roll into the river?”
    “It did, but the river is dry.”
    “Put an olive in it & call it a martini.”
    “Put an onion in it & call it a Gibson.”
    “A Gibson is a guitar.”
    “You can drink in the music.”
    “This is bullshit, Luca. Get to the point.”
    “There is no point, that’s why it’s so dull.”
    “Like you’re dull, Luca. Get to the point.”
    “When you get to the point, don’t sit on it, Fred, or you’ll get blood all over the floor, & when you slip & fall, you’ll bloody yr pants.”
    “I can still play the guitar in it.”
    “Try not to get blood on the strings, or the dulcet tone gets dull.”
    “Then it’s hard to make yr music lucarative.”
    “Ha ha ha!”
    “Ho ho ho!”
    The manager comes over & tells them to get out, they’re wrecking his business.
    “From the looks of things,” says Luca, “:there’s not much to wreck.”
    Two big bouncers arrive & bounce Luca & me out the door.
    “The floor is wet,” I complain.
    “Tht’s because these bouncers are dibbling us out the door.”

    “The river is dry.”
    “So put an olive in it & call it a martini, Luca.”
