Facing Lead

Her name is Barbara, but her friends call her Barbie.  I am not kidding; she told me this herself.  She’s in her mid-40’s, fake blonde and not very bright.  At some point, someone did Barbie the disservice of telling her she could cruise through life on her looks alone.

Under some circumstances, I could almost pity her.

That is, unless she’s waving a loaded .357 Magnum in my face.
