If this doesn't get Batman's Vin Scully story reposted, nothing will...

You bastard. Now my daughter VirginiaRestStop is crying her eyes out.

 

I think I've read it 20 times today. I just showed it to my boss—had to sort of vacillate when he asked what this place is, and how do I know of it—and he ended up on his knees on the floor. It literally buckled his legs.

 

That was fucking great, too. God, I laughed.

 

You should see her baby sister, TuesdayNooner.

 

and somewhere ... somewhere I think Angie was laughing with us.

My favorite part

 

It adds a perfect, homespun, folksy Vin Scully note to the beating death of a prostitute.

 

We open the trunk, and only then do we realize neither one of us had packed a shovel. Jose thought I did it. I thought Jose did it. And there's poor Angie, dead as a doornail on a tarp in the desert, half her face gone.

This part always sends me from laughter to hysterics.

 

I love how Vin transitions from Jose whaling on her to Beltran whales one deep down the foul line.

 

I'm laying in bed last night. I'm 3 or 4 deep breaths away from being asleep. Then I start thinking about Angie getting the shit beat out of her. Then start cracking up.
This place man.
This place.

 

This ... THIS is why I keep coming back every time I say I'm not.

Batman, I am an eternal fan.

 

He was a bouncer at the Sands back around 1965, but he also did some pimping on the side. There's ball one to Beltran.

Just look at that. That is actual genius.

 

Y'all are too kind. Glad I could brighten up the day and write something memorable.
