Amphi Heartbreak & Trauma
Could barely believe my eyes... a small crowd
had gathered around a mint condition 1974
Ford Pinto. But this was no ordinary Pinto,
it was a PINK Mary Kay Cosmetics Pinto.
Amphi seemed aroused as evidenced by the
throbbing bulge between Amphi's propellers,
(or it could've been soft engine mounts yielding).
I guess there is no accounting for taste when
it comes to Amphi's deep seeded desires. I
dared not leave the two of them alone in the
parking lot for fear of cross-species mating
and the resultant mutant gilled Yugo that
might hatch out at some undetermined period
of gestation. I still needed a lake launch permit
so I gave a kid some money and told him
what I needed in exchange for a ride. The
kid apparently didn't have Amphi wisdom
and just left us there $5 short of swimming.
No permit to swim and the crowd growing
anxious, not to mention the amorous feelings
between Amphi and Mary Kay Pinto. It was
weird, I usually like weird, but this was too
weird. Then it got even stranger - Mary Kay's
owner came over and it was either Tammy Faye
Baker or Mimi from the Drew Carry Show
(or a twin sister) on roller blades. Small wonder
Amphi went limp. Then I got a page on my pager -
"Horoscope stated I was vulnerable to alien
influences today." That was the last straw.
I jumped in Amphi and we bolted for the exit.
That was the first time we've ever been shut
out - a virtual no hitter on the lake and were
overshadowed by a pink Pinto. The horror...
