AND NOW FOR A SCENARIO
The scene: A downtown sidewalk with me lying on it and four dozing
making use of my thighs and stomach. A police officer is
walking up to us.
Officer: Allright, what's going on here.
One of my
customers: <startled awake> Hmph? huh? wha?...
Me: <soothingly> Shhhhh, it's O.K. Go back to sleep.
Customer: Hmmmmmm...zzzzzzzz.
Officer: Look, I really need to see some...
Me: <whispering> shhhhh, here's my license.
I hand the officer my Professional Human Pillow License, which is proof that
my training and qualifications meet, or exceed, the State of Colorado human
pillow guidelines.
Officer: <examining the license><whispering> O.K. You check out.
We just have to be real careful with all these unlicensed
human pillow crackpots around. Especially with those two
accidental decapitations last month.
Me: <whispering> I understand. One of those people was a
regular customer of mine.
Officer: <whispering> Oh, I'm sorry.
Me: <whispering> It's O.K. I still have a hard time believing
that she'd go to some untrained, backalley human pillow
like she did.
