Show Description
Walking along an alley and seeing what is in an alley at a very formative part of your life going from one pile of garbage to the next. I remember one time Flick running for two and a half blocks with an old rumb-sprung girdle on. It was one of the few times Flick got a laugh. The whole alley was alive Dopler's had cockroaches the size of a fielder's mit Why am I so rotten? Shep teases a rooster eveery day on his way home through the alley until one day it gets loose and chases him all the way home.
