So Burtus was on my case<\/a> pretty fast last week, trying to get a fix on me. I guess I didn\u2019t drop enough clues. The deal was I should reveal some history, some of my favorite places, that might have given her a clue. For the folk less agile that Burtus, I\u2019ll spell it out. I\u2019ve been down south where the sky ain\u2019t sentimental<\/a>. I ran into a bit of bother<\/a>, nothing I couldn\u2019t handle.\n<\/p>\n

Anyhow I was intrigued enough to listen to the second message on my machine<\/a>. When you have more than one client things can get tricky, and this is tricky times four. <\/p>\n

This week Groom seems to be sucking up to Burtus big time.<\/p>\n

I saw a couple of Burtus other performances too (here<\/a> and here<\/a>). She is trying to come over cashmere, soften the message a bit, but she is still all steel. Wants everything her way, reports for Sunday night.<\/p>\n

All 4 of the clients are demanding<\/a>, well they can keep that up, I\u2019ll steer my own course through this business.<\/p>\n

Another familiar face<\/a> showed up here<\/a> last week. Quite a character for such a sweet face. Worth keeping you eye on Tina<\/a> if you are in this game.<\/p>\n

So, among this week\u2019s unreasonable demands<\/em> was instructions to dig into some character. I started leafing through some old cases. I got interested in Frank Bigelow<\/a>, but that turned into a wild goose chase.<\/p>\n

The Words and pictures just didn\u2019t line up. I dived back into the files. I was looking for words and pictures at the right time and struck gold:<\/p>\n
