It’s Fandango’s Friday Flashback! I wrote this charming little piece on this date in 2017.
The prompt is “quicksilver.”
“I’m gonna miss ol’ Gus.”
“Yep-eroo,” Joey sighed. “Ain’t nobody can bust a tire faster’n him…”
“Uh-huh. Change his mind slicker’n snot, too!”
“You betcha. Reckon that’s why folks called ’m Quicksilver.”
“Hee-hee! First he’s buyin’ the garage; next he’s lookin’ at new houses, then he’s off to Tahiti with th’ cashier.”
“He’ll be back.” Gus’s wife interjected, overhearing their conversation. “Once little Miss Cha-Ching discovers he don’t change his drawers near as often as he changes his mind.”
And some ladies still say there is a man drought, impossible with fine specimens like that waiting!
