Grandpa’s Badge

Grandpa's Badge

Sketch Text:

I still have this. If approached by thugs I will flash it and say:

“Don't Mess With Me Boys.”

Then I will run like a Cheetah.

I think that will work.

I dunno when, but at some point in his life, my grandpa was a law-man. Not a particularly bad hombre himself, and built like a long-distance runner, I suspect he was a court bailiff.

He did have a way of looking at you that made you obey.

At least I did anyway.

    Thanks Rowland. The Cheetah thing is more a state of mind than actual physical speed lol!
