Hi, I'm Snazzy and I'm Trucker

Sounds like another job for B. Goose 007 ......

 

Nick is going to tell Barney that Berry was Ed's nephew...

 

Kenmar is funny... Ed is up to his old tricks... agent Goose is about to be cooked again for what ever Ed dreams up... and can he dream, well a good nights sleep is in order... Oh and Thanx there Snazzy 1 for setting the mind voices free ...

 

Yep sounds like Barney is going to be working some side jobs for Nick now. Maybe whether he wants to or not. Maybe he was really doing some surveillance as Berry met his fate.Barney Goose -Trucker,hit man, American.

 

Yep Creekrd, the name is Goose, Barney Goose, do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do, What a deal, as Life Goes On.

A large custom bus swung in and parked a few spots down. You know, it was one of them fancy commercial types that bands and high rollers travel in. It had dark tinted windows and a custom paint job. I sashayed over and Nick welcomed me aboard. There were a dozen agents present and a couple of them recognized me. You know, from the ... Well, you know ! Anyway, Nick had us take our seats and began his briefing. My butt cheeks sank deep into the soft cushion and I tilted back in a reclined position.

Nick paced back and forth, " We're facing the worst crises that America has ever known ! Our President and our other top leaders are being held in an undisclosed location. Red Alert, Alpha Dog, Blue Light Special and Code Run For Your Life, have been put into action ! "

I fluffed my pillow and yawned, " Ahhh ! "

Nick flipped on the video, " This is Senator Blow Hard, as he addressed the crowd. Now, watch and listen carefully, as he begins to take questions, from members of the press. "

The video came alive, " Now, if there are any questions ? Yes, Pamela ! "

Pam stood, " You stated, that this bill will help keep Americans working. My question is, will this keep US plants from relocating overseas ? "

Nick paused the tape, " I'll replay this part in slow motion. Did ya'll see that ? Here, I'll do it again. Right there ! See, how his eyes blinked and he has that dazed look ! Watch again ! Now, listen to his response ! "

Sen Blow Hard cut loose, " Are you kidding me ? I introduced this bill, because the foreign sponsors are paying me more than you'd ever believe. Screw the American Worker ! Do you really think, that I give a ####, about American jobs, or fair trade agreements ? I'm in it for the money and so are the rest of my colleagues ! We'd auction off the statute of liberty and take the highest bid, if the price was right. American Workers ! What a joke ! "

Nick pointed at the screen, " That's the Secret Service escorting him off the stage. Now, see right there ? I'll zoom in some ! I'll pause it here and ya'll take a good look. That's our suspect and we've identified him. His name is Who Do Sue Song Say Said ! His friends call him Albert and he's one of ours. He was working on a top secret weapon and somehow managed to smuggle it out. If we aren't able to recover it and stop him. Well, it's the end of the world, as we know it and ... Barney ! Are you listening ? "

I smacked my gums, " Oh, was I snoring ? I'm sorry ! I must of dozed off. "

Nick rolled his eyes, " This is what we're looking for ! I know, they look like a pair of Buddy Holly eyeglasses. Now, if you look close, you can see how this frame is hollow and see this ! That's where the power source is stored and these lens are gamma rays. I can't explain all of the technical stuff, but here's what we know. A small nuclear cell, about the size of a watch battery slips in here. There's a remote devise, similar to an alarm key. You know, like the one that sets your car alarm. Now, all the suspect has to do is to stare and make eye contact. He can press that key remote and bingo ! "

I had to ask, " Bingo ? I don't get it ! "

Nick went Postal, " #### Barney, pay attention ! What happens is simple ! Anyone zapped with this thing can't control themselves ! They blur out and admit to whatever the truth is. They can't keep from it and there's nothing they can do. Well, except tell the truth and admit to whatever their up to. This is the biggest threat to American security since the Adam Bomb ! "

I lit a 100, " What's wrong, with telling the truth ? I mean, ... "

Nick gave me the LOOK, " Are you serious ? Can you imagine, what would happen if our elected officials didn't lie ? Our government wouldn't last five minutes and you know it ! Foreign nations could find out where our national defenses are ! Tax payers would know, how their money is really spent ! My God, the world would be turned upside down ! Do you understand ? "

So I had to admit, that I did. Yep, I could see his point and there would be a problem. Hell, it'd take a month of Sundays to hear just the stealing and bribing going on. Then the sex scandals, bathroom deals, err.., back room deals, drugs deals, cut throat deals, double cross deals and.. Well, you know what I mean. What a deal, as Life Goes On.

Nightie night Snazzers, your Snazzy1.

 

So agent Goose is going to join the group??? Oh! and steal the stylish glasses away... sure hope they don't get used on Barney or his goose will be roasted... broiled even... I can see it now... Barney rescues the glasses and puts them on, and ask Ed to spill his guts... Hehehehehe another adventure for Agent Goose... it is just no rest for the wicked.

 

Nope Kenmar, Ed and Berry weren't related, but maybe they should of been. Big Duker sees some side jobs coming Barney's way and Rikdev knows there's no rest for the wicked. What a deal, as Life Goes On.

After our briefing the other agents retired to their living quarters in the back of the bus. Nick popped a couple of tops and handed me a cold one.

I had to ask, " What's the deal Nick ? I mean, why do you want me involved in this and .... "

Nick took a swig, " It's simple ! I can't risk using any of my agents, because they know too much. "

I lit a 100, " Oh, I get it ! Your afraid that they'll spill their beans and ... "

Nick admitted it, " You can understand, where I'm coming from ! If any of them were to get zapped. Well, that'd sure be the end of my ... "

I blew smoke, " Yeah, I see what your saying, but what about me ? If I get zapped and ..."

Nick snickered, " Barney, you don't know near enough to ..."

I got it, " Yeah, your right ! I don't know that much, about your daily operations and I guess, that's good. What's our next move ? "

Nick pointed on the map, " Albert rented a car and got a room right off the Interstate. That's not far from here and my plan is to have you intercept him. All you have to do, is get those glasses away from him. Without them, he's nothing and won't be a threat. "

I was confused, " If all you need are those glasses and you know where he's at. Why don't you just have a snipper take him out, or ..."

Nick rolled his eyes, " We can't do that ! You see Barney, it's a delicate situation. Albert is the one who developed this thing. He's one of our leading scientist and is the only one who fully understands it. We need him and if we ruffle his feathers...

I gave the LOOK, " Ruffle his feathers ? Let me get this straight ! That Idiot smuggled out a secret weapon, from a secure laboratory. He's already zapped a US Senator and according to you, is a national security threat. "

Nick agreed, " I see, what your getting at, but listen to me. In this line of work you have to be flexible and sometimes deal with people that .. "

It hit me, " Oh, I get it ! Ya'll are worried that he might switch sides and take his zapper glasses with him ! Man ! Where does our government find these people at ? "

So, Nick educated me about things. You know, the need for the best minds, to create the best weapons, to protect the best country and blah, blah, blah. Yep, I could see some of it, but it still seemed a bit crazy. You know, we were using foreign nationals to develop top secret weapons and .. Well, you know what I mean, as Life Goes On. What a deal !

Nightie night Snazzers, your Snazzy1.

 

yep, the same foreign nationals workin' 4 the meat packers...ooops i didn't say that....it's top secret...only Nick has the need too know !!! LOL

 

Yep Creekrd we need that border fence erected asap to keep them nationals over here and prevent us from escaping down there. What a deal, as Life Goes On.

I parked Ol' Blue around back of the motel. It wasn't but a few exits from the truck stop and not a ten minute drive. Nick had promised to keep his agents back and not interfere with my mission. You know, I all had to do was recover those pair of glasses and ... Well, you know. I pulled the yellow knob and eyed my surroundings. Let's see, that must be Albert's rental car parked over there in front of room 109. There's not much going on here and those other cars must belong to the other guest. Let's go rent a room and check things out. Sashay, sashay, sashay, open the door, ding a ling.

The Clerk, " May I help you ? "

I cheesed, " Yeah, I need a room. Say, I noticed that 110 looked open. I mean, there aren't any cars parked in front of it. You think, I could get it ? "

The Clerk shrugged, " Sure ! Will that be cash or credit card ? "

So, I paid in cash and sashayed back the way I'd come. I slid the security card through the slot and opened the door. Yep, just your typical motel room, with a double sized bed, color tv, stench of disinfectant, and well, you know. Anyway, I'd no sooner stepped inside, when a door slamming caught my attention. I peeped through the drapes and spotted Albert. Yep, he was headed across the parking lot and towards the corner restaurant. I decided to go ahead and tell him. No ! Not tell him ! I mean, tail him, or is it, tale him ? Well, follow the SOB, you know, what I mean ! Now, I didn't want to blow my cover and let him know, that I was .. Well, you know ! I kept a safe distance and paused by the newspaper rack. You know, one of them metal boxes that has the local papers inside. I slipped in a couple of coins and yanked it open, as Albert entered inside and sat at the counter. He didn't look all that smart, to me. Oh, he was middle aged, had dark black hair, wasn't that tall, a little on the thin side, dressed in slacks, with a flowery shirt. He didn't notice me, as I sat down a few stools over. The waitress tossed down menus and filled our cups. I shook open the newspaper and tried to act uninterested. You know, played it cool and like I was reading the paper.

Albert spoke, " Excuse me ! Are you from around here ? "

I lowered the paper, " No sir, I'm passing through. I'm out of Dallas and drive a truck. Well actually, I'm an owner operator and leased on, with TLX. Their a national company and run all 48. I've been with them for about ... "

Albert cut me short, " Well the reason I asked, was to see if you might know, if there's any good clubs near by. You know, a gentleman's club that serves mixed drinks and ..."

The Waitress piped in, " You've got to be kidding ! Your in Salt Lake City, not Sin City ! Where are you from ? "

Albert lied, " I'm from the Big Island and on my vacation. "

The Waitress snickered, " That figures ! I've dreamed of going to Hawaii all of my life and you come here for vacation. You must be nuts ! "

Albert's eyes flashed, " Why do you say that ? I'm not nuts ! Your the crazy one and there's nothing wrong with me ! "

The Waitress backed up, " I didn't mean anything by it and I was just kidding. You need to lighten up and don't take things so serious ! Now, there is a club not too far from here. It's called the Cab or Ray and I've heard it caters to men. I've never been there, but several of my customers have. "

I made my move, " Hey, I tell you what ! If your serious, I'll go with you. I mean, if that's alright and .. "

Albert nodded, " Sure ! We can take my car and leave, right after we eat. "

So, we did. Yep, Albert seemed like a nice enough guy. I mean, for a mad scientist that developed secret weapons and liked zapping folks. I was a little worried, about renting that room, but Albert didn't seem suspicious. You know, what are the odds of two strangers, meeting for the first time and just by chance, happen to have adjoining rooms, at a motel across the street ? Well I guess, there are a lot of motels and restaurants. Then if figure in strangers, in ratio to persons you know. Well you know, what I mean, as Life Goes On. What a deal !

Nightie night Snazzers. your Snazzy1.

 

Oh my gosh! Barney is going to get those funky glasses and zap a pole dancer for a freebie.
