Next it was time for Jessica to got to the computer city airport to pick up her parents. And off in her car she drove to the airport. It would be a long commute because of the rush hour traffic. Since it was about 5:00pm in the afternoon. She disliked sitting in traffic but she had received some audio book for a birthday gift and she popped those into her CD player. The books were biographies of famous residents of computer city. So she would be learning while sitting in rush hour traffic.

The traffic was heavy on the computer city freeway leading to computer city airport but, Jessica was in a good mood because she was listening to the audio books. Also it was a sunny day with some clouds in the sky. It was gorgeous and she was glad to be driving around. She needed to get out of the house and do something else for a change besides sit in the house and figure out what to do instead of learn how to program. She was in a zone. It was a great day. She could not wait to see her parents. She was looking at the beautiful scenery outside of her car window as she went over the computer city bridge. Which was one of the most beautiful bridges in the country if not the world. She was getting close to the airport now when she saw a familiar car. It was the car of her friend Sisal. She waved and saw a hand wave back. She had not seen Sisal since she help Sisal move her things out of her ex-husbands house after her divorce. That was a rough time in Sisal's life. And Jessica was glad to be able to help her though a tough time in her life. And then she and Sisal went in different directions and because busy with there own lives so they had not seen each other in about a year. But, Jessica and Sisal had been friends since grad school and all the time apart ment little because they were always the best of friends.

As it happens Sisal was going to pick up a friend at the airport. So Sisal and Jessica had a chance to talk and Jessica found out that Sisal had a fiancé and was going to have a wedding next summer. And of course Jessica would be invited. Jessica said that her romantic life was non existent and that she was happy being single and that she was glad for Sisal. Then they had to go to different gates so they agreed to have lunch someday during the coming week to get reacquainted with each other. This made Jessica very excited and she could not wait to meet up with her friend again. Next Jessica went to the gate to wait for her parents. It was getting dark now and Jessica always got more energetic when the sun went down. Her parents liked to say she was a night owl.

"This is a fine movie J.J. said." "Yes, I a agree J.J. I could not agree more. Its a great movie." They watched in amazement while an ice cream sculpture was being made from start to finish. Who would have thought and ice cream sculpture would capture the imagination of the city.

The documentary on the television made the preparation of the food even more exciting. During a break Jessica thought she might sneak away to her computer and practice some programming but, then she thought why not watch the documentary and enjoy herself. So she got a cola and sat down in front of the television and watched. She wound if they could make ice sculptures for this weekends party but, it would take a little extra time but, it might be worth it for the impact it would make on all the guests. It would wow, everyone and that was the idea at Jessica's parties to impress everyone one wither her creativity and gifts.

Then the had to start making the food again. Jessica discussed the idea with J.J. and J.J. Agreed that that would make a splash. So now they had to decide what to make. They decided to order the supplies from the website with overnight shipping so that the stuff would arrive tomorrow. Which would be just in time. So Jessica ordered the supplies and then the preparation for the party continued.

Jessica parents were do to arrive by plane that night so Jessica had to show and put on her fancy dress clothes because she wanted to show them how well she was doing in her new home of computer city even though she did not have a job at the moment and was living off her savings until she could find suitable work or start her own computer. She want to start a software computer but, fist she wanted to program so she could do a lot of the programming herself but, she would have to hire a few people to help her with the design of the software and sales. She was hopping to get some work or start the company with in the next year or so as her savings would not last for ever but, it would have not been the worst thing in the world if the savings would have lasted for the rest of her life. So thought work was ok, but, it was not her entire life. She had other interests and hobbies. She did not like to work 24 hours a day though sometimes she liked to work a lot but, only if she thought she was making a contribution to the world.

And the food making continued.

The Woman Who Wanted To Program, bit never did. Page 10

J.J. And Jessica were having fun preparing the food for the weekend party. Jessica decided to put a movie on the big screen television in the kitchen. She decided to put on one of her most loved movies.

Here favorite movie actually was a documentary. It was about Tom Tedson the man who spent his life building replica's of the great world monuments out of ice cream. He started out as a construction worker then went on to move up until he became a contractor but, he became tired of the building trade. He had always been a big ice cream fan. He would eat one-quarter of a gallon of ice cream a day. He then took his adoration of ice cream and turned it into a great hobby/profession. He would use his computer and construction skills to build molds for the ice cream he made himself. He became world famous for his ice cream sculptures. And he published video of himself making the sculptures from start to finish. From the making of the molds to the particular ice cream he would use for each sculpture and then finally to the making of the sculptures. He would publish the videos on his web site so that people around thee word could also make the sculptures that he was making. He liked to share his knowledge.

The Documentary was a movie of the year. It was so good Jessica liked to watch it over and over she could not watch it enough. Jessica wanted to make her on sculptures someday but, she did not have time to make then now because she was to busy try to learn how to program or should I say trying to avoid learning to program. She had so many plans but the programming was getting in the way and in a way that was fine with her because what she wanted most in the world was to learn how to program a computer. She could put off her other plans for something she had wanted to learn since childhood.

So she put the documentary into the DVD player and the documentary started playing. And J.J. and Jessica started to get more excited as the were about to watch one of the best movies they had ever seen. And now the movie was playing. And the preparation for the food was moving along smoothly. They were already on the main course and when the day was over they would have that done and then tomorrow they would have all day to work on the dessert portion of the menu.

The decided to take a break from making food to eat some lunch the though we could order take out or we could eat some of the food we just made. The decided on take out pizza. The decided on two large pizza's from computer city pizza parlor with soft drinks and cheese bread.

The Women Who Wanted To Program. But, never did, Page 9

Then Jessica had to get ready for her weekend party. By ready I mean she had to prepare the food which took about two days to prepare since there was so much food to prepare. She had a regular chef that would help her prepare the food for the parties since it was so much work she could not do it herself.

The menu was huge and everyone who went to the parties could not wait to see what was on the menu. It was a bit event. The food was great to say the least. First the prepared the appetizers then the main courses, then the deserts. No expense was spared. Jessica had a reputation for great food at her parties and she was not going to let that slip. After the food was made it was stored in a big refrigerator and then reheated when it was needed. She did wait to prepare some of the food on the days of the parties but, most of the food was prepared ahead of time so that Jessica could attend the party and so could her chef.

Her chef was name Jessica James. J.J. James as she liked to be called. J.J. Started out life wanted to be a classical painter but, found that profession did not suit her so she went to a culinary school and then became one of the best chefs in computer city. J.J. Started a chain of restaurants in computer city called Home Cooking. The name stood for that the food was supposed to be like your mom or grandmother made but, in a restaurant setting. And it was from all the reviews that the restaurant got in the computer city gazette.

J.J. and Jessica had met on a camping trip help by one of there mutual friends. The became instant friends. J.J. liked Jessica's sense of humor and laid back manor. And Jessica like J.J.'s drive and good cooking and joy of traveling. Jessica also liked to travel but, not as much as J.J. liked to travel. J.J. liked to travel all over the world. She would travel six months out of the years. And the other six months she would spend at home running her restaurants. She liked change and would get bored if she stayed in the same place and did the same things year after year. Which is also why J.J. was not married and did not plan on ever getting married because she hated routine.

This day Jessica and J.J. were having a great time preparing the menu for the party. J.J. was about to leave on her six month journey around the world and was in a great mood.

The Woman Who Wanted To Program but, never did Page 6

Abruptly Jessica decided it was late and past her bedtime and she had to go to sleep. She thought hum maybe I can do some programming. She thought she might be to tired and would not remember what she read so it was pointless to try and program as so late an hour.

She went to bed and awoke early the next morning. She had to get ready for her parents arrival which was only two days away. She had to purchase some gifts for them. So she had breakfast of a bagel and cream cheese with orange juice. Then she was of to computer city party supply for gifts for her parents. She decided to buy them a ten pound jar of gummy worms which were her parents favorite candy. Then she decided to buy the some ice cream and then she went to pay and was back at her house in a flash. She put the ice cream in the freezer and the gummy worms in the cupboard. Then Jessica decided that it was time for her to do some programming then before she sat down she decided that she needed. To make lunch even though it was only 8:30am but, you can never make lunch to early as she liked to say. Its the second most important meal of the day after all.

She decided to make roast beef and salad. She got out her pan and heated up the stove and then she got all the inpatients together. She was going to make the salad later as making it and eating it fresh was the way she liked her salad. She prepared the roast beef and put it in the oven and then she had to decide what to do. She thought she could not concentrate on programming so she decided to read the computer city gazette.

She had been a computer city gazette subscriber for years because she liked to know what was going on in the city as well as the world. She opened the paper and discovered a story about Todd Thomas. Todd went to school together. Todd was in the paper because he had built of the computer city movie theatre entirely out of Popsicle sticks. What a feat Jessica thought. I knew Todd was destined for great things when we were in high school.

She and Todd were not close but, She had always admired his work ethic. In high school he had built a replica of The computer city diner out of cards that he had glued together. She was so happy for him then and she was happy for Todd now. She always thought he was a great guy and she hopped he did more great things in his life.

She turned to the sports pages but, did not recognize any of the names because she was not the worlds biggest sports fan. Though she would watch sports socially but, watched little of it when she had a choice.

The Woman who wanted to program but, never did page 5

Jessica was having a great time. She was hungry so she was eating all the pizza and bread sticks she could. She ate slow because she did not like to eat fast. She was also enjoying the baseball games.

The phone range and so she picked up her cell phone and said hello and on the other end the person said hello this is your mother. "Oh, hello mom said Jessica. How are you doing today." "I am doing good. How are you her mom said." Jessica said "Oh, I am doing good. So why did you call." Your father and I are going on vacation to computer city and need a place to stay. We thought well we could stay at a hotel but, then I said why not stay with Jessica. I would be like the old days. So how about it can we stay at your house while we are on vacation." "Sure I would love to have you and dad as house guests Jessica said." "great, great" her mother said. "So when will you be coming." "We will be coming this weekend." "How great. You will be just in time for one of my weekend parties. Which will be a super fun experience for you I assure you. There is lots of excitement on the weekends at my house for sure. So I can't wait until you come." "Super that will be a great experience for me and your father. We need to be around people because we will be on vacation. We love meeting new people. That will be an exciting time. We can't wait to come down to computer city. See you this weekend Jessica. Bye" "Bye". And Jessica hung up the phone and started watching the television again. She was enthralled with the baseball game for the next several hours. While stuffing her face with food.

After the game ended it was late and she considered calling it a day and going to be but she decided to stay up and watch one of her favorite shows. It was call computer city Law. It was a fictional show about the lawyers at a computer city law firm Lars, Lawson and Lampoon. It was a top rated shows on channel 4, for years. It chronicled the legal cases that the firm handled as well as the romantic lives of the lawyers. It had been Jessica's favorite show for as long as it had been on. She liked the relationship part of the show best but, she thought the show was so well written.

She remembered watching the sow on the eve of her high school and then on the eve of her college graduation. She had purchased numerous season of the show on DVD but, she always like to watch it when the show was on television. It made her feel so good to watch the show. There would be a marathon of the show for an entire week on Channel 4. She was planning to watch as many episodes as she could during said marathon.

The Woman Who Wanted To Program, But, never did, page 4

The pizza delivery women arrived with her pizza order. She was surprised to see it was Trish Thames an old school friend who she had lost touch with years ago. They were close friends at one time but, had drifted apart and lost touch.

Oh, my I can't believe its you Trish. To bad its you Jessica. "I hoped I'd never see you again. After what you did." "What did I do Trish. I don't remember." "Oh, don't be all you don't know with me Jessica. You remember." "No I don't." "Fine, then I will tell you. Wait, I think I am thinking of someone else. All theses years I had been angry at you and it was not you I should have been angry with. Oh, shoot. I feel bad now Jessica." "its water under the sink as far as I am concerned Trish."

"So how about we do something Jessica. Here is my number I will call you later." "Ok, I will call you or you can call me I don't care." So after Jessica gave Trish the money for her food she waved goodbye to her now new old fiend and skipped to the living room to eat her food. She was so happy to meet someone she had known years ago. She could not wait to go camping or something like that with Trish. She could not wait to re-connect with her friend.

For now Jessica had to eat food and decide what television show to watch. She started flipping through the channels with the remote control. She found a classic sports game. It was the computer city stars vs. The computer city cars. The teams played baseball. And this particular game was from 1959. It was one of the best baseball games in history. It was an extra inning affair. It lasted 36 inning which ment the games was over six hours long. It was the longest game in the history of baseball and used almost all the players on each team. It was a joy to watch and Jessica had watched it before and on this night she decided she wanted to watch the game again.

One of the greatest players in the game who was name Sid Sanders. He was one of the greatest center fielders in the history of baseball. He was great defensively and one spectacular offensively. He was also one of the most likeable me in the history of the game. In this particular game he made several great defensive plays that keep the game going when it was in extra innings. He was the player who ended the game with a grand slam. It left the crowd cheering and the other team staring in disbelief. It was sure to be on highlight reels for years to come and in fact it was. Yes one of the best hight lights that you or anyone could imagine.

Jessica settled into the couch and for the night so she could enjoy this wonderful game. It might be boring to stay home on a weeknight but, she was not a person to party so she preferred to stay home and watch television or a movie.

The Women Who Wanted To Program but, never did. Page 3

Jessica then decided to vacuum the kitchen floor which looked like it needed a good cleaning. So she brought her vacuum into the kitchen and started to vacuum. With the vacuuming done she went on to clean the stove top. Which was not that bad of a job. And finally she went and dusted everything from the to the refrigerator to above the cabinets. Everything looked great when she was done.

Then she remember she was hungry so she had to make herself something to eat. She made a ham sandwich. The sandwich consisted of sliced ham, pickles, cheese, tomato's, lettuce, mustard, mayonnaise.

She also had chips and ice cream. It was a tasty little lunch and made her energetic to go and clean the rest of her house except the bathroom of course. All she had left to clean was the bedroom.

Her bedroom was decorated all in pink as that was her favorite color and she had to be surrounded by it while she was asleep even though she could not see it. It was not that dirty. All the room needed was a good vacuuming and dusting. So she got right to work and was done in no time. Yippee she was done with the house work and now she could get back to her computer to do a little programming but, then she remembered it was getting late and she had to make dinner. She had to decide what she wanted to eat.

She decided that she wanted to skip making dinner and order out. She decided that pizza would fit the bill. So she went to her computer to look up the phone number for computer city pizza parlor and also made sure it was open. She opened up her cell phone and made the call and placed an order for two large peperoni pizza's some bread sticks, and two large computer city cola company's ancient cola; which was a great drink and she liked to enjoy it when ever she could. She decided to have the pizza delivered. In the meantime while she was waiting for her found she could not stay by her computer because that brought up feeling of sadness because she knew she was avoiding something that she wanted to learn but, she could not help herself she had to avoid it.

So she went into the living room and sat on the couch. She turned on the television and this time watched the first channel that it was turned to as that was the one she wanted to watch anyway. There was a reality show that followed Shana Shane who was a car racing champion but, instead of driving real cars her car of choice were radio controlled. In her opinion cars were a lot saver when they were 1:12th scale. She had won numerous victories. Todays show followed her to her workshop where she worked on her competition cars. It also followed her to the hairdresser where she had her hair made up for a wedding she was going to attend the next day. The show called Shana Shane's world and was in its second season and was one of Jessica's favorite shows since it first aired the year prior.

The Women Who Wanted to Program but, never did page 3

After Jessica finished watching the television show she decided to get to cleaning her kitchen so she could get that food that she wanted. She was getting hungry. So off the couch she went and into the kitchen.

Her kitchen was state of the art. She had the newest oven and sinks and utensils a women could by.

Jessica liked to bake cakes and cookies. She also like to throw dinner parties that every weekend. The parties would run through the weekend. The would start out on Saturday afternoon and run through Sunday evening. Some guest would stay the entire weekend and others would only stay for an hour or two. Jessica would plan out the menu right after the end of the parties and go shopping on Monday morning for all the supplies she need for next weekends parties. The supplies did not cost that much because she shopped at computer city party supply which carried everything anyone would need for a party. Including food.

She thought back to her last party which was only a few days ago and though how much fun she had surrounded by all those people. Her friends and hopefully someday friends and people she wanted to impress. Its amazing that she did not have to do that much cleaning after her parties as the people she invited were remarkably neat and tidy. She was proud of that fact. She now knew that she need to clean her house at least once a year to keep it looking its best and as a bonus the cleaning would keep her from programming which was what she really wanted in life even though she want to be a programmer more than anything. She just could not admit to herself that she was so scared that she might not be able to program a computer that she wanted to avoid failure so bad that she would not even try to program. She did not want her dreams dashed.

Even though with the way she was doing things she would never become a programmer because she never programmed and she would never even find out if that was what she wanted to do with her life because she never programmed for any length of time. So by avoiding what she wanted to do she was wasting so much of her life that she could be focusing on something she enjoyed if she did not like programming but, she did not want to face anything it was much more convenient to avoid programming and clean her house. "I don't want to face that I can't program or might not be able to program" She thought to herself.

So cleaning the kitchen she went. She started with the refrigerator which was a new model which used a force field to keep the cool air in. So it was see though and you could reach your hand though the field to get what you wanted. It had no doors. Or wait it did have doors. But, you did not have to bother to get anything all you had to do was ask the refrigerator what you wanted and it would deliver it to you because it was also a robot that moved and knew you name and greeted you at the beginning of the day and the end.

The Women Who Wanted to Program but, never did, Page 2

Jessica wanted to program but, she also liked to find ways to get out of programming. She would do just about anything to avoid coding. And she wasted a lot of money trying to avoid something that she wanted to do but, she was afraid that she was not good enough to become a programmer. So instead of find out if she could code she would avoid it.

One day she sat down at her computer and decided to read a programming book and follow the examples and type in some code. But then she decided that her house needed a through and so that had to come before she got any work done on her computer. She started with her living room which always got the dirtiest. She first decided that she need to vacuum. First she had to find the vacuum cleaner. She knew she had one because she had bought it just last year but, never used it. She found it exactly where you would think it was in a closet marked Vacuum clean and accessories. Imagine finding it there.

So after finding the vacuum cleaner she had to use it. Which was rather easy, even though she had never used one before. The living room was relatively empty so Jessica did not have to maneuver around a lot of furniture which would have been a pain. She turned on the vacuum and started vacuuming. And in no time had the room done. And wow, did she feel better after that cleaning.

Now she decided it was time to dust the living room. She had no specialized dust rag so she used a dish rag. And for a cleaning solution she used a bottle of the computer city cleaning company's Magic Dust remover which the company claimed would Magically make dust walk away and disappear. Jessica did not believe the claims but, liked the name of the clean and so she bought it.

She started on her end tables and then went on to the lamps then on to her television entertainment center. And with the entertainment center she was done with the living room. She thought to her self now I deserve a break so she sat down on the couch. But then thought I need something to eat but, the realised that she just cleaned the living room so she decided that the next place she would clean would be her kitchen. She turned on the television and started switching channels rapidly until she found a show she thought was interesting.

It was a reality show that followed a group of cleaning lady's. They were employed by the computer city cleaning company. The followed the cleaning lady's to their different jobs and showed them cleaning the houses and businesses. One would not think a show like thought would be interesting but, it was a hit from the first day it was on. The was not show that was more exciting on television. Watching someone vacuum was riveting and Jessica was amazed that she had never heard about the show before or watched an episode. From now on she would be a regular viewer.

The Women Who Want to program, but never did

Jessica Sonic had dreamed of becoming a computer programmer since she first heard about computer programming on a computer show when she was a teenager. All she wanted to do when she got her first desktop computer was learn how to program it. But, she thought that the tools for the programming languages cost money so for a few months she just surfed the internet and did not programming. Then one day she found a website that listed this website that had information on how to program and how to get a free compiler which amazed Jessica because as I said earlier she thought programming tools cost money. She she decided to install on of the free compilers. Since her internet connection was so slow and the file size of the compiler was so big she had to leaver her desktop run all night. She would get up periodically during the night to check on the download and everything went well.

It the downloading of the software took until about 9:00am the next morning and she could not wait to get the program installed to start program. And she got it installed perfectly. She was so excited and rearing to go. The unfortunate thing was that that was a far as she got with programming with that particular piece of software.

She did finally find a compiler that she could use and did do a little programming in C++. But she did not do that much programming. Though her dreams were big her follow though was not. So she never got that good at programming. She had dream as I just said of becoming one but, she just could not focus on one thing. She went from one programming language to the next. It was madding to her but, once something got challenging and she thought it might be to hard she went to another programming language.

That was another dream of hers to know lost of programming languages but, how can you know lost of programming languages when you don't even know how to write the simplest program and one and then move onto another programming language the minute something gets hard. Yes, anyone can see that that is not a recipe for success and certainly not something that would get her where she wanted to go. And even when she said this is it. It was now or never. Its time to put up or shut up well she did not last more than a week with an attitude like that. She even gave up programming for about a year.

She also went though periods of detesting her computer and the internet and blamed it for the reason she was so miserable. While she did not like being on her computer. And frankly her computer did like her being on it all day. Because of the weight mainly. She was not that heavy but, even a hundred pounds was a lot for the computer to carry. She did not mind using her computer for 3 to 4 hours a day. Anymore than that and she would get upset and grumpy. Somedays she did not mind being on her computer a lot but, just not everyday. She did have other interests and hobbies and she liked to move around. And it felt good to go outside once in awhile. But, as she saw it her computer was basically ok.

The Man Who Wanted To Impress, Page 25

After fuming about what he would write to Daniel Thornton could not do anything and he even wanted to get away from his new lady friend. "How about you go home miss Lauren said." "Are you telling me what to do Lauren because I don't like it when people tell me what to do she said." "Yes I am telling you what to do because someone has to tell you what to do. You would walk all over me if I did not tell you what to do. You would not know what to do if I did not tell you what to do he said." "That makes me so angry when you tell me what to do she said." "When I tell you what to do it makes you so angry. Have I ever told you what to do before since we have only know each other for less than a night. So don't make it sound like I have told you what to do for year because that is not true and not accurate.

"Lets argue some more it makes me forget the bad jokes on those videos of Daniel Thornton." "No she said." "What do you mean no. I am going to argue with you weather you like it not. I hate when you don't tell me what to do he told his lady friend." "So you hate it when I don't tell you what to do but, you hate it when I tell you what to do. So how can I win. So lets get going back to the arcade because I want to go home and I don't want to walk home and I need to get my car." "There you go telling me what to do again. Or is it that you don't like me telling you what to do. Now I am really confused. Its getting late so I agree with you that we should get back to the arcade. I am tired and I am not thinking right. And when I don't think write I start talking about all the people I have taken money from and that would make me look like a bad person to you but, would you not agree that a person has to make a living. And I have to make a living. Its not my fault that women find me so attractive and then give me all their money with a little coercion. Say like compromising photos of then in a bathing suit, or wearing a milk mustache, or eating junk food. You would be surprised at how many women will cough up some cash just to have people not see them eating the junk food. Of course I say that I destroy the pictures but, I do not destroy the pictures in case I need more money. Yes, I always like to think ahead because I don't always have a steady income Lauren said.

The hailed a cab from the computer city cab company and went directly to the arcade. When the arrived Lauren had her(his lady friend) pay the fare. Which had her fuming. She decided that she could stand Lauren no longer and said to herself forget my salary and forget my employer and got in her car and left and hoped she never saw Lauren again. Lauren chased after her car begging her not to leave him that she was the only women he ever loved but, she would not look at him as she drove away. So Lauren decided right then and there to stop trying to impress women as he was no good at it and be happy with his Dish Washing job. And So ends the Man who wanted to Impress. The End.

The Man Who Wanted To Impress, Page 24

The Clown Lady decided to drop Lauren and his lady friend off at the beach where she had first kidnapped them. Lauren was glad to see the limo speed away into the mist. He hoped he would never see the lady in the clown suit ever again unless she wanted to give him all her money. Its an experience he wanted to quickly forget. But, he knew he would not forget all the bad jokes that Daniel Thornton mad on those videos.

They were like a song that you can not get out of you head. The were far more memorable than a good joke. When Lauren got home that night he promised himself that he would sand Daniel Thornton some angry fan mail telling him how he had ruined his(Lauren's) sense of humor maybe permanently. "How dare you Daniel Thornton ruin my sense of humor possible for life with you terrible sense of humor. How dare you." And Lauren was going to say more. "I will give you all the money I make for the rest of my life if you stop making DVDs, Please. Ok, that does not include all the money I get from the women I steal from but, that does include money from my job. But, that is/will be a sizable sum after I take out expenses and handling then I will give the money to you after a six month period in my bank account just to make money on the interest the extra money will make me. But, then the money is yours. Is that a good deal do you think? Write me an email back saying yes or no. Or you don't have to write me an email back because I can't tell you a grown man what to do. Can I or can't I. Ok, I will tell you what to do now you better write me back and tell me yes or no. Or I will send my poodle after you and his bites are really vicious. Of course you will have to send me your address but, wait if I am sending you this letter I already no your address so never mind about sending me your address. So that I can drive my poodle to you house and sick him on you and believe you and me that he looks harmless but he has a bit that hurts so bad. Yes, he does look like he came from one of those commercials for computer city dog food. So sweet.

But, he is anything but, sweet when I give the attack command. He will be on your ankle like that. Faster than a bolt of lightening. Bitting it as hard as he can and he will not let go until I give the wow, command and I just might not give that command because I could be snacking on some candy of something. Yes I do like my junk food but, not your junk comedy. I am sure some people like bad comedy like yours like the like bad movies but, I don't think anyone would like your jokes Daniel Thornton.

The Man Who Wanted To Impress, Page 23

The clown women decided to stop with the video's and take Lauren and his lady friend on a wild ride in the limo. She opened the curtains on the windows and started the car and asked the driver to sit in the passenger seat and let her drive in her clown suit was near impossible but, she wanted to drive so she drove and that was that.

She started driving at a fast speed and she knew that Lauren did not like riding in cars that were driven excessively fast. The scenery was going by so fast it was all a blur and Lauren could not make out where he was in the city or where he was going. He did get one piece of information from the clown lady. She said they were going to the outskirts of the city to a rural area.

To Lauren that ment only one thing. They were going to the old parker mansion. It was built by Bud parker in the 1850's. But parker was a rich billionaire who made his fortuned in park benches.

But was born in 1810 and by the 1840's was the richest man in computer city. Which was not saying much because he was the only rich man in computer city. The only person with over 100,000 dollars that is. Bud had met his wife on a cruise in the pacific in 1840 she did not know who he was and was surprised he was one of the richest men in the country if not the world. When she found out she assured him that she was not interested in him just because he had money. Her name was Georgina and she was from a impoverished background and marrying a rich man was a shock because now she never had to worry about money again. She and Bud had many of the same interests. The liked to sail, had an interest in hot air balloons, liked to vacation on islands in the pacific, they liked to build models of famous land marks out of cards. The would glue the playing cards together so their models would stay together permanently. The made some great models. And there greatest hobby was building miniature volcano's that the would make erupt on a miniature island they had built in the middle of the lake on Buds property. It was a rather large lake that Bud had specially constructed to hold the island. He also took his boat on the lake for a little sailing.

After there deaths in a hot air balloon accident in the 1880's after they were old and grey the parker mansion was given to the computer city historic society for safe keeping as Bud wanted it to stand as a monument to his wealth and power and he also wanted everyone to remember his greatness. The historic society had built a small hotel on the property for people who wanted to experience the property first had and also to raise money to support the care of the mansion and the keeping of the large grounds that had to be mown and the flowers had to be planted and cared for and there were repairs on the house that had to be made so the hotel was the perfect solution.
