Tired of It All
By Scott L Vannatter – 100 Words
Smittee walked to the front of the mechanics garage, the cover for the local chop shop, and inspected the work going on. Currently, there were twelve autos having various operations run on them.
The pile of leftovers out back was ridiculous and Smittee had no idea what to do about them. Then he had an idea.
Two weeks later all the leftovers had been removed, taken to the park, and turned into the newest (and baddest) children’s play area. It was complete with tire tunnels and muffler stairs.
Who in the world thought that crime did not pay? Smittee smiled.

Good for him, but when he’s discovered, it won’t keep him out of trouble. Good idea, Scott!

loved your take! but Smitty can’t wash away the stench of ill-gotten gains with a little bit of charity. those poor kids could be climbing thru their parents’ car parts. shame Smitty, shame:)

Oh, I agree. Smitty is trying hard to justify what he does and balance it with humanitarianism.
Doesn’t usually work long or well.

Thank you. No real reason that park can’t be built, I suppose.
