Noethen Blacks Out and gets his new company car stolen by a Real Live Crosby Street Crack Whore

It’s been exaclty six months since Noethen had totaled two company cars in 5 days and panic is again beginning to set in. It’s 11:00 a.m. Saturday. He has just risen from Mercer’s couch and he can’t figure out whether he should throw up or diahrea first. He better act fast because within the next 20 seconds the choice will already be made for him. So as he quickly scurries to the bathroom another disturbing thought enters his mind. ” MY CAR!!!” “JESUS CHRIST, NOT AGAIN!!!” ” WHERE ‘S MY CAR!!!” He then begins to piece back together the fragments of what until that moment, he had thought was another Magical Evening. His date with Roshumba. Her pineapple swirled hairdo. The scent of Olde English 800 and Black and Milds all over her chocolatey skin.

What I remember most about that night was looking across the bar at the Bucket and seeing Noethen in his Bob Mackey sweater vest and Polo Khaki’s wrapping both arms around Roshumba , dipping her ,and sticking his tongue down her throat. It was very reminiscent of that famous photo from Life magazine of the sailor in Times square kissing a girl, right after the anouncement that WWII was ending. With the exception that she looked like the woman who played Mama on the 70’s sitcom Good Times and He was dressed like the Akron chapter president of the Young Republicans.

This couldn’t possibly work now! They are from two different worlds!! Or could it? After a few more shots of Jaegermeister and Ripple. Noethen was beliving that it could. So they then headed for Mercer’s house where they could cap off the night. 

As soon as they got to Mercer’s house Noethen passes out on his couch. Then Roshumba starts to screams at Mercer ” I’ve gots to get home to my baby! I’ve gots to get home !” “You can take me can’t you? ” looking directly at Mercer. 

Mercer looks back at her . Opens his mouth as if to reply and takes off up the stairs and locks himself in his bedroom .  He was hoping that the problem would just go away and it did.

The next morning after Noethen notices that his car is gone, they frantically try to decide what to do.

” Well lets just call the Cops.” says Mercer

” We can’t call the cops !” ” Then they will have to call my Boss and he is still pissed off about the last two cars that I wrecked” says Noethen. See, Noethen had previously wrecked his company car. Then he wrecked the rental car that he had while his original car was in the shop only 6 months earlier and the subject made his boss a little salty.

” We have to go looking for it! “Noethen says

“Where? ” says Mercer

” Lets start by just driving around Highland Square and seeing if she left it somewhere.” “
