(This story goes out dedicated to my friend Tx Tall Tales. Happy birthday, Triple T. And many more to come.) * "Well my name's John Lee Pettimore."

"You really need to relax." I started, sitting ill at ease in the chair across from my boss. I hadn't noticed that it was so obvious, my being apprehensive.
