Jim Hyde

My beautiful friend Jim Hyde, who loves bacon more than I, posted a single word on his gchat away message, "Kayfabe." I used to know a Filipina that went by something LIKE that name and I wondered if he knew the same girl.

So I googled it.

The findings were extraordinary:

"Kayfabe!" yelled the brick wall at the sight of a wrecking ball. The wrecking ball got a heart and swung itself into the motor that was propelling its forward motion. Onto the ground the ball fell and careened through the street like a helium powered aircraft through the air. "Kayfabe!" he yelled in return, and solidarity, as he disappeared into the nearby lake.

Sadness took over the poor wall's heart.

It was all for naught though. The men who hired the wrecking ball in the first place decided they could keep the wall and keep their plans. So I googled it.

Kayfabe was the wall's last and only word. Now it only knows the sounds "cha" and "ching."
