“The story goes the late Mr Marrow. He had a nuance for fashioning handbags embellishd inexhausted clutter. He could get flattery from neon lime green. They say he was a Bellwether of the industry. His methods were faustian, anything for the dollar. And they all knew it. Most would say, ‘can the Devil use another soul’ just to get a taste of what he had.” Ryan reads the obit a third time.
“Now, if the old bastard dies sometime soon…” Ryan looks back at the scene. Life of the celebrity obit writer. Edit, edit, and wait for the popular to pass away.

She’s staying with my mom tonight. So she will have a bed, and a hot shower. When I asked for the final bill the utilises said if the new people didn’t call they would shut off the water and electrical. The water people showed up this evening. So I’m thinking when I told the electrical company the 7th, they will be there to disconnect the house

Thank you very much. The words usually spell things out as I read them. This was definitely done as a fun diversion. Originally he was talking to someone else about him.

It just seemed like a great name for a shady character. Just the idea of it being something a dog chews hours to get at. 🙂

They only wire a couple times a yea. And noone sees it unless the right person dies. Most news organizations maintain a few hundred each year and rewrite them every few years
