BLACK IRIS
(More transcriptions.)
Hip old man.
Family stares and thinks.
2 men were talking about religion, and foreign, so might be serious about religion.
Just plain strange waiter/owner.
I am fatso-bobatso.
Golden Oldies, need rollover minutes, and doubled salaries, but they have to sell shoes, too.
THANKSGIVING, OVERHEARD
(Transcribed verbatim from handwritten documents which were revealed by author, free of coercion.)
Top Secret!
(Not for grownups!)
Music and things that have to do with it.
Case: 001
Case Closed!
Talking about a woman with 2 children. Talking about a phony on stage, even though they don't believe in phony's. Talking about a man named Prince. Talking about how they feel bad for her. Interesting site. How Jason Cocky blogged their conference. Someone 6 years younger than mystery woman. Music made in 1984.
Suspect: Madonna?
