A Secure Exchange Of Bonding Information


There were two mature individuals claiming different things as the hour was getting late on the prickly side of the desert region.

“We made a lot of money during the gambler’s gold rush,” Albert the Bulldog mentioned to his good friend Freddie Lee sitting in his executive chair monitoring the Financial Fact and Fantasy Features.

“I was sculpting this strategy real good when the money was flowing in,” Freddie Lee enjoyed his bologna sandwich on the couch

“You were a hot Rodin, Freddie Lee and you were living Freddie’s Dream,” Albert the Bulldog consoled.

“Yeah, Freddie’s Dream of being out of the money,” he folded up the brown paper bag when the phone rang.

Albert the Bulldog picked it up and listened, “Gio’s calling,”

“Is something going on down under? I do know my insurance number,” the waste management bucket made a good basket.

“I know you were with a valid Prince,” Albert the Bulldog talked into the phone, “I worked as an intern photographer and we used to take pictures do not worry they are in a good storage place.”

Albert the Bulldog mentioned that Freddie Lee was in the information exchange security office helping to protect their turf in paradise. After thinking about for a second Gio requested to be put on speaker phone.

“HI Gio,” Freddie Lee screamed in order for the intercom to hear.

“Freddie Lee,” the female voice addressed, “you know I was with a valid Prince years ago and Albee put the pictures in a safe storage place, so I was wondering if you could make a run for me Freddie Lee,” Gio inquired from the machine, “I know you are out of the money so I can give you a couple dollars from the paid out draw.”

“You could buy me a bond?” Freddie Lee inquired still dreaming since he was out of the money.

Albert the Bulldog subtly interrupted, “we’re just sayin a bond would be nice.”

For a second time there was a few seconds dead silence until Gio came back online, “my boyfriend James who I bought at auction really doesn’t have any brothers so I could not buy you a Bond.”

Laughing Freddie Lee picked up the car keys and noted to Albert that he will go to storage and get the negatives. With much gratitude Gio thanked him then hung up.

Waving and saying good bye Albert the Bulldog turned his attention to his DVR list and pressed the documentary “The Socialites Masked Restrictions”, “yeah Gio was right we have the negatives that prove he was a valid Prince and maybe we will have another gambler’s gold rush again.”
