C.: d.c. is calling me while he drives home from work. He seems to be even more upset than he was yesterday! I wonder what is wrong now?
d.: Hi, Cal.E. How are you?
C.: I am the cat's meow, d.c. (hehe).
How are you?
d.: Not so good. I thought that my problems were solved. The kennel hired another nurse to work opposite me yesterday. Unfortunately, he had something in his past, so they let him go.
C.: What caused him to lose his job before he ever even started it?
d.: Well, I don’t know if the guy was drunk or on drugs, but he stole a bicycle from a charity hospital.
Since it is so hard to get around in the Texas Medical Center, the hospitals in the med center supply bikes for patients and their families to ride to get from one hospital to the other, or just to go to a restaurant or a hotel. It is a courtesy to the patrons of the hospitals. You are supposed to leave the bike at the place where you stop. Then, someone else may be able to ride the bicycle to another place. NO ONE is supposed to take the bicycle permanently, but that is what the new nurse tried to do. He now is facing two years in jail or prison. What is wrong with people? SMH
C.: Bicycle, Bicycle. Bicycle. I want to ride my bicycle. I want to ride my bike out of the med center, I want to ride it where I like! (past the place to put it back…)
d.: Cal.E. What did I tell you about making up the words to songs? Now, you are going to make all the Queen fans mad at you!
C.: Freddy Mercury is dead. He is the one who wrote that song, so I don’t think he will mind if I take a little “poetic license” with one of his sillier songs. You do that sometimes, too, d.c.
d.: I suppose I do, Cal.E. No one is perrrrrfect (hehe). Besides, Freddy Mercury is NOT dead. I suppose next you will tell me that Elvis died!
C.: Elvis DID die, d..c. A long time ago...
d.: NO! he faked his death, just like Freddy Mercury did. Elvis and Freddy Mercury are going to run for president and vice president in the next election. They have been hiding out on an uncharted island in the South Pacific after both faked their deaths.
C.: Hoo boy! You need to go home and get some sleep. You are beginning to sound like ME!
d.: NO ONE could emulate, you, Cal.E. You are one of a kind. I DO need to go home and sleep, though, so I guess that we will cut this post short.
C.: You need to say goodnight now, d.c.
d.: Good night now, d.c.
C.: HE should NOT even be driving
This has been Cal.E. Kat, with another episode of Cal.E’s corner. On behalf of d.c. scot and all my friends, have a happy holiday season Try not to drink too much eggnog or consume too much catnip
