I love this! So true and so funny! Thank you. An outstanding western movie is The Virginian with Bill Pullman and Diane Lane. A typical , predictable plot, BUT the language used is absolutely brilliant - very spare, true to the era, no anachronisms. As a linguist, I was enchanted with this authenticity. And what the hell is wrong with So. California anyway?! Pineapple bagels? Strawberry bagels? Chocolate chip bagels? Why does everything have to be "improved"? And as for fruit-flavored TORTILLAS? I mean, seriously?
1. That budget problem sounds serious. I’d call him Rockefeller Vanderbilt, bait them into nuisance lawsuits, and countersue for their fortunes. Likely a disaster, given my legal experience is nodding during dates with lawyers. But I believe in the power of love.
Good job. I like how you include the pictures and other multi-media in your story.

"bellicose bill"....you know, ironically.
My only comment, from having grown up in Buffalo, is that the best bagel is also not in Buffalo.
Excellence. Short and sweet with impeccable tone. Loved it.
My favorite western is Blazing Saddles
My bagel order is very similar, just swap sesame for everything and capers for cucumbers.
Chocolate chip? Do they have whipped cream schmear? 😬
