what? No cheque? Long haired hippie type had $12k in cash just hanging around and gave it to our girls?well, long haired hippie types have been known to be quite frugal. They save their money for ‘other’ things. And obviously, very trusting of grade school girls.So Agnes and Trout best hurry on home to Grandma and …… Stop Sniffing the Bag! Someone will think you have glue or a bottle of hooch in there!
The guitar from the dumpster turned out to be very valuable…and no one had ever noticed or said anything before.
The incredibly kind pawnshop owner … or maybe just manager…gave her more than half the book value……when they might not even get that much for it in the shop, even after investing possibly hundreds more.And that was after he ignored her saying that she only wanted 10 dollars
And then he handed 12 grand in cash to a middle-schooler…with no ID and no adult present to walk her home or sign the paperwork….presumably without running a stolen property check…cos where I live there’s a waiting period and a police “buy book.”
This has become so wildly unlikely, I keep wondering whether she’s about to wake up, back in Grandma’s trailer…maybe wondering whether that chili dog before bed gave her crazy dreams.
True conservatives are quite generous with what they have earned. They just don’t want to be held up by the government to support laziness and promiscuous life styles.
On her way home a cop will stop her and ask “What’s in the bag?” When she says “money,” the cop will will say that the only way a kid could have that much money she’s either been selling drugs or going to buy them. Therefore it’s drug money, at which point he confiscates it under the rules for civil forfeiture. Tough luck Agnes.

OK….

I hope not…. but it’s all awfully perfect.

Two kids carrying twelve thousand dollars in cash in a bag. Gee, what could possibly go wrong?

Agnes shows the potential of dumpster diving.
Not that it isn’t fun all by itself.
