Holiday Guests Anyone?


Hi Fans.It's Hoboclown here. Sometimes, I shadow Flash Mc Cool to watch out for him as he travels alone from his cave to Philadelphia by train.This morning I saw him looking down at a puddle of water in the City Hall Courtyard and this is what I heard Flash saying, "Archy! Is that you ? I haven't seen you in nearly ninety years! Why you must have been the most famous cockroach on Broadway.I heard you used to help that Marquis fella write his news column in The New York Tribune.How's the wife and kids ? Thousands of grand kids ? No kidding ? I always wondered if you were German, Australian or American . German huh? Yeah, that's right! You come from hardy stock ! I heard you rode with the best of them : Kings,Princes,Dukes, movie stars, presidents.Your favorite spot was inside the upholstery of those fancy automobiles ? These days, I still travel by train, bicycle or by foot.Well, good to see you passing through Philly. I got a nice little spot in a cave nearby and you're welcome to stop by for the holidays for a few crumbs but leave the grand kids at home ..." ____ Well fans as you can see, Flash is somewhat neighborly and generous but he places a higher premium on solitude! Until next time, remember your cool friends over the holidays ! Love, ~Hoboclown~ Copyright 2006
