(NOTE: THIS IS A BOOK IN SCREENPLAY-FORMAT) Five Wonderful Stories In One Horrible Arc!Stick in the Eye: Alex's story: a weekend in the life of a Las Madres hipster and his best friend Jamie, as they get into trouble with a stolen car, a bottle of tequila, a broken tattoo-gun, and the psycho ex-girlfriend. No good deed goes unpunished, and Alex won't get away without paying his pound of flesh. Flies in Your Ointment: Mike's a guy who doesn't mind getting his hands dirty; he doesn't consider himself above much of anything.

Surviving the day-to-day, the name of the game has always been 'Git Mine, ' until all that's left to snatch is each other's crumbs. Prepare to laugh yourselves into your g
