"When they kidnapped me the third time I remembered the coins in their
mouths. The shape of a quarter pressed out against their cheeks. I like
the way her hair smells, one of them said. Another smacked the man hard
and said, we’re here to do a job not sample the merchandise. Back then
we all used Johnson & Johnson’s baby shampoo, you know, the one that
promised no more tears and we laughed because we were nothing if not
mournful."

A modern variation on The Ransom of Red Chief.

Share and enjoy,
