Well - that sounds like fun…

On a gray, rainy January afternoon,

on a gray, rainy January afternoon,As I was walking down the street I saw

a toonie lying on the sidewalk so

bent down to pick it up and ended up kickking it down the street drain .

  damn it, I needed that twoonie for a

damn it, i need that toonie for a timmies

now, what was I going to do?  Ah ha I thought

As I looked down at the sidewalk in front of Eddies, I noticed a ten dollar bill.

another guy near by also noticed it and

no one would dare pick it up seeing there was a fine thread tied to the edge of the ten dollar bill

In a dark doorway holding the other end of that tread was none other than Mayor Jack Mussallem 

In the darkened shadows he played with his stach curling it slowly, trying not to look like a slumlord he just waits with his blackeyes gleaming from the street light. Suddenly
a child appears

The child looks up at the man in the darkened shadow , he says I know you , you took away my playing area and now my friends have no place to play.

“That is just not true” he says, “Didn’t you read the paper? We are a child friendly city, so you should not complain!”

the child, sad and confused turned to walk away and at that moment a Police cruiser went roaring past to

pull in to tim Hortons for a double double and a chocolate sprinkle donut

But someone had stolen ALL the sprinkles.  Thank God they were on the case but first they

They joined the fish cops for a little bite to eat and some conversation.

  Gorging on some fish and pork sandwiches, they almost choked when down the street came…
