Al quickly ran to his closet and got his Rocky Horror costume complete with toast and scraggy wig. Gloria laughed and suggested that he get some fresh toast “That stuff is looking a little green, we might get kicked out of the theatre." Al found the toaster (under all that pantry dust) and made the toast. The smoke detector went off for a few minutes but they didn’t have to call the fire department. It was turning out to be a pretty good day.

Al and Gloria went out to the garage and started up Ed his average brown four door sedan. Ed as usual started with a roar. He was a really dependable car as long as he wasn’t broken. They drove down town and parked Ed. As they were walking across the street a huge convertible Cadillac screamed around the corner and nearly knocked Al down.

Gloria quickly grabbed a pad of paper and wrote the liscence plate down “H-O-T-S-T-U-F-F”. She read “ I think that we should call the cops. They must be drunk or crazy”

“Don’t bother” replied Al, “I know who it is and they’re not drunk”. The car stopped, reversed and squealed back to where Al and Gloria were standing. Just then driver flicked a cigarette out the window, the butt landed on Al’s polyester costume and immediately burned a hole in the fabric.

“Hey watch it” yelled Al.

“Ooops sorry, Albert ” said the driver “didn’t mean to burn your fashionable attire. So, who’s the squeeze? Your Mom didn’t tell me that you had a girl friend.”

“Hi Grandma,” said Al “This is my friend Gloria. And please don’t call me Albert”.

“Okay Al-Baby.” said Grandma “Nice to meet you Gloria, you can call me Gert”.

“We’re just on our way to see “The Rocky Horror Picture Show”, we don’t , always dress like this” said Gloria. “Would you like to join us?”
