There is a 21 year old boy named Arden that lives down here and he had been going with Inez Winkler, a waitress at the Pig -in-the-hip cafe just outside Childress. Seems she had been on him for a time about never being romantic. So last Valentines day, Arden picked her up and drove her to Amarillo where they dined and danced and had a real bangup time. Then he brought her back home and when they got to her door step Arden got down on his knee and offered her a ring and ask her to marry him. Now that sounds nice and as romantic as can be but unfortunately that was not the end of it. The next day Arden went down to the cafe where Inez worked and ask her to give him the ring back. Well , naturally Inez was shocked, and devastated and ask , "Why?" Arden said he needed to take it back to the jewler he bought it from and get his money back. Again Inez was taken back and stuutered out, " Why! What did I do?" To which Arden answered," Nothin', but Valentine's is over . Don't worry. I'll be romantic next year too." Well , Arden thought it was a big joke. And well it might have been in some circles but unfortunately not when the prank got back to Jingle Bob. You see Inez was a good friend of Jingles and nobody really needs to do any harm to Jingles' friends. He gets real aggravated. Jingle told me the first thought that came to his mind was to tie Arden to the hood of his car and enter a demolition derby. He finally restrained him self to going over to Arden's apartment and dragging him out and tieing hin to a stop sign on main street. Then he had two big signs made that he put on each side of Arden. One said in bold print : I AM A FOOL. I HAVE NO RESPECT FOR WOMEN. The other read : PLEASE ASK ME WHAT I DID TO JINGLE BOB'S FRIEND. I WILL APOLOGIZE AND TELL YOU THE TERRIBLE DEED I DID. Jingle kept him there until Sherriff Hassle came by and made him untie him. LOL |
