FAT MAN IN A CAR TALKING ABOUT FORNICATION IN A TENT "...yea I like picking up hitchhikers you never know who's going to climb into the old jalopy me I just drive around the county selling pipe railing so when I meet someone new it's almost like I was traveling myself all the interesting types in the world like once this young couple long hair bell bottoms backpacks just like you I mean you know what I mean they seemed like nice kids well the wife fixed them dinner and we talked about everything I mean everything I think I'm a pretty modern kind of a guy I've gone to art films anyway that time of year it was getting dark early and they needed a place to spend the night and asked if they could pitch their tent in our back yard now I had this suspicion they were runaways of course they seemed a little older than that but you know how kids grow up so fast these days but that isn't the point like you kids say you have to do your own thing but see now they weren't married and I just can't go for that who knows what they might be doing in that tent I'm sorry if they want to live that way it's fine with me but not in my home it's not like I'm a prude or anything like on my last birthday the wife and this couple they're our best friends threw me a party and for my birthday present my wife leans down and she unzips my pants and gives me a real blow job right there I mean right there in the living room and she never does that but you have to draw the line somewhere it's a shame them having to spend a chilly night on the road I hope they didn't get into any trouble they were nice kids a bit young I'm not one of those Bible thumpers I think people ought to live and let live but you know at home I have standards to keep I have three kids of my own what would I tell them they don't even know about this stuff so where did you say you were heading..."
