Had I just made a date with a tatted up bat wielding miscreant?

He perched the bat on his shoulder, giving a nod that he understood I needed his help. With one loud yell and a couple swings of the bat, he cleared me another path.

It would be the last thing he did if he beat my dog.

It was a little difficult to take him seriously when he sang along to a song about a woman taking another woman's man.

The moonlight caught the glint of his lip ring, which he was now fondling with the tip of his tongue as he stared down at me. It was a bit awkward.

Nona needs a very dry martini.

Nona I don't think your allowed to smoke in here.Nona exhaled a large cloud of smoke.Nona keeps their lights on. A little smoke won't hurt them.

I abandoned my religious teachings after I read the Bible twice - cover to cover. It took me a couple of years.

I don't really care. I shouldn't have to care. I shouldn't have to work this hard. I realize now that dying is easy. Living is hard.

If it's broken, it can be fixed.

Best fishing in troubled waters.

Few things sound so beautiful as the poetic accent of a Welsh woman.
