The picture is funny. It gives that warm and cozy and let us sit with the family around the fireplace feeling. There are two boys and they are brothers and they like to wear blue and their parents like to paint their house white. The two boys have the same hair cut and their hair is brown and it is short and they dont use gel because it is sticking up in the back. The carpet is old and brown and dirty and one of the boys is laying on it. Through the doorway is the kitchen and it has wooden floors and chairs and tables and in the doorway the other boy is standing. The floors must be kept clean because the boys are not wearing shoes and the fleshy color of their hands and feet and faces stand out against the blue and brown and white. The boys are smiling and playing. They are playing a game and the boy standing in the doorway has a dogleash in his hand and the boy laying on the brown carpet has a dog lease hooked on his blue clothes and they are smiling and the picture is funny. |

The five foot ten one hundred thirty pound body looked half as big curled up lying naked on the cold tile floor in the middle of the bathroom in a pool of urine and sweat. "How did it happen?" "You know how it happened" "What will we do with it?" "Well we cannot let it stay here and we cannot let it leave" The two hundred pound weight smashed through the skull of the twitching body leaving it motionless on the cold tile wet floor. |
