Hey, let’s do something different for a change.

Here is a sneak peek of my upcoming novel.

Want more? So far that’s all there is. I need to get around to writing the first three chapters one of these days.

But what did I write? Let’s see. This week, Mr. Blog’s Tepid Ride looks at superheroes, pornography, ants, OTR, Edgar Allan Poe, gorillas, and convenience stores

It is going to be an interesting week.

Imponderable #30: Davidson County North Carolina

Dr. Evil sure has fallen on some hard times.

Most stores won’t accept any bills over $20, this guy wanted them to take a $1,000,000 bill? Seriously, if he wants Walmart to take a bill that big then he has to buy more than $476 dollars worth of stuff.

Did he really expect a cashier to have that kind of cash in his register? Did he think no one would suspect that maybe, just maybe, a million dollar bill might not be legit? I guess that’s why he shopped at 5am, figuring the early morning shift wouldn’t be at their best before sunup. I really wish I could find a picture of the bill. Whose picture was on it? I’m betting either Bugs Bunny or the tooth fairy.

A $1,000,000 bill. That guy is 53 years old. What was he thinking?

The question is Imponderable.
