Fallout (Crank 3) - Page 99

Too many lies in this frozen

world. And too few destined

mergers of the heart.

I DO BELIEVE THAT

So why, after class,

when I spy Kyle at

the far end of the corridor,

does my heart quicken?

Why do I feel like I can

barely catch my breath

(and it has nothing to do

with my asthma)?

Why does a glimpse

of his crooked smile

threaten to melt the ice

dam encircling my heart?

Why do I even halfway

buy into the ridiculous

idea of a remote

possibility of love?

NEVADA APPEAL

CARSON CITY.—Former Pink Pussycat madam Robyn Rosselli moved one step closer to the Nevada state legislature today when her opponent, Greg Cappelini, dropped out of the race.

Cappelini’s ties to the nuclear power industry have plagued him since tentative plans to go forward with the Yucca Mountain project were recently revealed.

“At least I’m an ex-whore,” joked Rosselli. “But seriously, if Nevada voters place their faith in me, they can be assured that I will do everything in my power to kill Yucca Mountain once and for all.”

Rosselli worked at the Pink Pussycat for fifteen years, before returning to college to earn her BA in political science. “Running a ranch is all about politics,” she said. “Courting voters isn’t much different than courting johns.”

Rosselli, who has admitted a youthful flirtation with crystal meth, was a vocal supporter of the new requirement for legal prostitutes to pass regular drug tests.

Cappelini was not available for comment.
