One Big Happy by Rick Detorie for August 22, 2018

The first “where’d you get the money” question will prove it was money poorly spent.

Does anyone know how to get in touch with Ruthie? I could help her get more money from Mrs. Dooley that would make that $10 seem like chump change.

On second thought… anyone know how to get in touch with Mrs. Dooley? She seems like fun.

Yes. Ruthie will keep the secret. Just as she always does. Bwa-ha-ha-ha!

A whole new enterprise has just opened up for Ruthie and Joe. Lol!!

Right place, right time…

If Ruthie thinks about it, she can have a steady income stream on her hands!

Ruthie might have to teach Mr. Harris how to pretend to be dead… or not..

So who is Mr. Harris, the mailman?

Ruthie: Grandpa, I’m not supposed to tell anyone that Mr. Harris…..

She gives herself away with that shit eating grin.

In “The Unexpected Guest” by Agatha Christie I played Henry Angell, a private nurse caught in a moral dilemma between loyalty to my employer’s widow and my duty as a citizen to tell the police I saw her boyfriend leaving the house the night of the murder – and it would be rather a kindness on the boyfriend’s part if he helped finance the private hospital I’d always wanted to run. First word from the mouth of anyone I told that to was always “Blackmail.”
