2 Boy did I almost catch it the other nite
alter the EAGLE BOB CAT football game.
I sneaked down off the sign at the Restaurant when they
shut me off and sneaked in the back way to try and swipe some
of that good HOME MADE CANDY they are selling, (provided
the cashier wasn’t looking) and ran smack into an old boy with
a steam hose, who was giving the floor Hail Columbia with
scalding water and detergent
Well it like to have scared the pants off me. so I took off
down to the CAFETERIA and Lo and Behold there was an
other BOZO doing the same to their Kitchen Floors.
Shucks, he says, this happens every nite at both places Bud
You could eat off these floors when we get through. It’s just

candy snitching in the day time from now on.
