Semi- celebrity Gregory Sparks is tired of the whispers he can feel. “His wife left him.” “No wonder he drinks so much.” ” Ain’t he pitiful?” His wife really hated his long hours, low pay, and car! She called it a POS. he called it ‘the Army’s Original Non- Camouflaged Tank’. His old haunts have become tiresome. He tries a new watering hole. And there is a waitress with a flower ( don’t ask the name of it-he can’t remember) behind her left ear. After the two for one pitchers of beer special and a plate of cheese fries something interesting happens.
