of illegal activity in front of a large group of
people with alterior motives. Someone could
get hurt. Ed is the king of digging deep (Poor
Old Lu style). We met during a Bible study
group and have enjoyed fanciful nativity
recreations ever since. You gotta do something
about that stigmata though.
hands. But they are not my tits. Nor in
fact, the tits of any living person. You
figure it out. And then report back,
10,000 words at minimum, in

Jersey. I was injured, but that didn't
stop me from checking out the local
semis for the AWF. I'd heard about Ed
from my last event, where I'd blown my
elbow out. I shouldn't have been arm
wrestling in the weight class above
mine, but I needed the money. Ed was in
the same class as me. And he was good.
Real good. Kid had skills. Real talent.
Or so they said.
When Ed took the stage, his presence
was awe-inspiring. The look in his eye
told you he couldn't lose. After I saw
him take the semifinals (after 5
rounds...with 2 dislocations, one
shoulder, one wrist) I knew I'd never
be able to beat him at this game. So, I
offered to be his coach. He had raw
talent but didn't understand the
subtleties and finer points of the
game. But that didn't mean he could
win the federation's title.
The rest, as they say, is history...
his friends don't know this, but in
about 12 years, Ed's charisma will
become a globe-altering force,
inspiring the ends of wars which will
be replaced by a new form of civil
disobedience called the "sleep-in."
Awesome, huh? He has other super
powers, but I'll let others enumerate
them.

place in my heart, and I'm honored to be the
