Diner on Lex Revisited

Lolo took orders….like all of us, Scrambled or fried? a punchy staccato Mexican accent asked, Berrrrry good sir, and ouila…..the magicians wand was waved….

Berrrrry good sir, heard everywhere in the joint….an opera….a musical with dancing Greeks counting the till and Blonde Russians smacking gum with flirtations given away for free……maybe……

But…Jimmy stands tall….needing nothing but his job…his family….his pride…..

I should retire, the Cretin says, Too cold….too much….what you think?

Jimmy….you’d be dead in a week….

Right….better work…
