Jim Bob was having nightmares.He kept seeing his frozen bigfoot, standing upright, swaying to the song "Blue moon".He woke up sometimes laughing and sometimes crying.It was very strange.To Jim Bob,that is. He still believed he saw the creature blink its eyes once, at him.He would work on projects down in the basement,while Elvis Presley belted or crooned out a song.
He was afraid to tell Johnny lee, about the eyes blinking and such.He would razz him to kingdom come.Jim Bob was looking on the Internet, for free psychic readings. He got a madame zooey, she said he was a lonely soul and needed to "spread his wings" She also said he would lose a beloved friend, in the near future..... that scared Jim Bob.
Lose a beloved friend? ... you mean? ..... Jim Bob put the reading, back into the reaches of his mind. Jim bobs furnace was on the blink.One room felt freezing, another boiling..... he fiddled with the vents, shutting one off, and diverting another.It seemed to work. He went to bed, safe and secure, but he thought he heard a slosh sound and a thud as he fell asleep.
That fateful morning, Jim Bob made some waffles.He poured a whole big goop of syrup on top of them. He swilled a large, black coffee, then opened up the morning paper. "Headline "Local man sees bigfoot creature ".... Jim Bob nearly choked on his corded. "Good lord, no.....no....Jim Bob ran down the basement stairs.
OH....Kelly Clarkson!!!.... Momma .... MoMma....Jim Bob turned pale. Water was everywhere. The meat freezers was open, and bigfoot, was gone. "Oh....MOMMA....What .... do ..... I ...... Do?!!!.... stupid, dumb......Horses .... Jim Bob got on the phone to Johnny lee. This is all Johnny lee heard.
Crackle... My....oh ....momma..... great day in the ......oh.....momma... My....Bigfoots.....GONE!!!!!....I ... told ...you ...it ...was ....real..... Johnny lee kissed his wife and headed out the door. He made it to Jim bobs in ten minutes flat.
"What are you blabbering about, you pickled brain, redneck...Johnny lee shouted. Oh.... you thought I was crazy, didn't you? ... you thought it was a stuffed toy in there, didn't you? Jim Bob led Johnny lee, down the basement.He gasped............. No ....it .......Where? ..... "Yeah....Yeah.... it got melted, my basement got too hot, I dun it now,I let sasquatch loose"
Johnny lee stepped back.
"We got to track this thing, follow its steps.....See if we can get it back"... Johnny lee said. "You think your that guy from the walking dead, the bow and arrow guy, dream on chump" "We gotta do something, before it gets seen" "It already has, some old coot said he saw a furry creature strolling in the woods" Jim Bob declared.
Johnny lee followed the splashy footprints of the creature, out side, right to the open backyard. ,Its heading that way",north, to the.....oh ...no...... "What? .... where's it headed? .... Jim Bob said nervously. "To the shopping center!!!.......You big science fiction nerd!!!!!!!
Jim Bob and Johnny lee got some supplies, no guns this time. That's all they needed, to have rifles inside a shopping mall, chasing a furry bigfoot. Jim Bob really didn't know what they, were going to do. Johnny lee watched as Jim Bob crradled his old box in his arms.
He didn't ask. He didn't want to know.
