Friday Night Drabble Party!

"Platter of Ribs"

Howdy, Y’all!

I appreciate y’all coming back for more free micro-fiction. It warms the cockles of my heart. I assume that’s where I keep my cockles. Doesn’t really matter where they are, they are warm now.

So, how are things? Mmmm-hmmm. Nice. Okay. Well, that might be a little TMI, but thank you for sharing.

Me? Thanks for asking. I’m having a blast working on an audio project that will be available to all of you probably by summer. Just in time for road trips and warm weather travels. Huzzah!

No hints will be given, so don’t ask. DON’T DO IT!

Anyhoo, it’s gonna be awesome.

Know what else is awesome? Audiobooks!

If you have a second, check out my website and all that has to offer here (click the blue letters, y'all).

Now, on with the drabble! Enjoy!

Cheers!

Platter of Ribs

By

Jake Bible

The manager stared at the mess and shook her head.

“He just exploded?”

“Yep,” the waitress replied. “He was on his fifteenth platter of ribs.”

“Fifteenth?”

“Fifteenth.”

“Shiiiiiiiiit…”

“You want me to call an ambulance?”

“You think paramedics can put him back together again?”

“I could call all the king’s horses and all the king’s men.”

“Hahahahahahahahahahahaha! …funny. We’re lucky he’s the last customer of the night.”

“So…what do we do?”

“You get a mop. I’ll call the cops.”

“Seriously?”

“What? We have to call the cops.”

“No. The mop. It’ll just smear everything.”

“Dust pan, then.”

“On it.”
