Thursday

Your characters find a suitcase full of cash.

Oh, and your characters must come from a television show that aired anytime during the 1970s.

(Betcha thought the theme was going to be Thanksgivingish, huh?)

I still remember the day we found the suitcase at the base of the mountain. Erin came running into the house with it, hollerin' for Momma and Daddy.

It was filled to busting with cash.

Mary Ellen wondered out loud who would even have this much cash in such hard times. Jim Bob thought we should keep it, but Daddy insisted we turn it into the police to see if anyone had reported it missing. As it turned out, someone had.

That night, we were all wishing each other good night.

"Goodnight, John-Boy," said Daddy.

Goodnight, dumbass, I didn't reply.

"Jeez Eadit!" Archie wined. "Do ya have ta touch everyting?! You don't know where it's bin!"

"You mean, like in the hands of a homosexual or black person?" Michael said sarcastically.

"No Meathead, it mighta belonged to one of yer off-colored mawfia guys."

"Daddy, you shouldn't talk that way in public."

"Listen little goil, what yer Pollack husband doesn't realize is that Godfearin' Americans who fought for dis country, work hard and pay their taxes wouldn't be carrying money in a suitcase. They'd keep it where it belongs, under da mattress."

"All you got there Awwchie, are those magazines..."

Thanks, LJ and Rick, for putting up your stories and giving us something to read between our bouts of turkey induced lethargy!
