Welcome to Pulp Quest. It's a hot steaming night in this urban decay of filth and excess we call Berkley California. Let's meet our Hero.

Is our hero a Mack? Or a Dame?

just because your a chocoholic doesn't mean your fat, I just wanted a common temptation
no let's change that to recovering chocoholic, still has a problem, but likely your not fat. It was a stage during childhood when you were fat and all the hippies teased you for it, and now you arrest, shoot, and punch them all the time now. but that chocolate, it always beckons.

Shit. Let's make a backup of this before any more accidents.

Mack gurries over to his printer and puts the paper in the scanner bed and presses the copy button.

That weird green light light thing happens and the printer makes that weird mechanical noise, but instead of spitting out a copy, it clicks three times and a blinking E on the little number screen shows up. While this happens some mail is slotted though the drop hole at the entrance to his office.

Mack uses his license to catch the drips of blood anyway. He's gotta or he might bleed on his solid mahogany veneer desk. Priorities, man. Priorities.

The Other letter in the plain envelope contains a a single folded piece of paper, professionally typed and neatly laid out with articulate writing. Briefly summing it up:

>"Mack. I love you."

>"Sincerely; Professor Damsel"

This is a startling revelation. Also Mack is still bleeding. A lot. He should probably do something about that. I think he might have the skills to do it. What should he do?

Mack somehow manages to cut himself with a band aid. Also this license is a terrible mess! We'll need to clean it up later.

Damsel's Laboratory is across town and there is a Supply Store along the way that sells whiteout and paper. The Bleeding will stop in a few minutes anyway.

Mack skulk up behind the hippy and suddenly bellows angrily into his ear, startling the hippie. His words cut like a dull knife on a finger. It stings like a mother fucker but doesn't accomplish much.

Turns out it's a meter maid and he says he still has to write the ticket once he's started in melancholic tone. Despite his stoic expression you've still wounded him and he's lost a slight bit of his composure and his cheap ball point pen as he wanders off to find yet more cars parked in a red zone.

Mack can think of several reasons not to use the gun to break into a car. Most of which involve State gun control laws.

Put we do have a handy dandy opening device right here. Let's put away out gumshoe writing utensils for a bit and take out the special skeleton key.

You can't light a cigarette with a spark plug! or at least you're not sure how.

Besides, that wasn't a spark plug. That was a skeleton key. unlocks any door with a window. And it's kind of broken anyway.

Mack makes a little note to pick up cigarette and a lighter as well and climbs in. The car starts despite being poorly taken care of and the horn beeps an enthusiastic but mono-tone version of Dixie, or at least if it would if he could afford the Dukes of Hazzard Novelty Horn. This one plays the Mexican Hat Dance.

The radio come one...

>Radio: "This is tom Brokav with a speshial report. San Diego, California. A Man in his fifties goes tot he doctor and says: "Doc, I'm having trouble pleasing my wife." to which the doctor replies "You should try the power of fantasy. Hire a sexy young stud to stand above you while making love. Make sure he's totally naked and spinning a towel over you two as you hav sex." So with the young escort in tow the man comes home to his hot, young trophy wife and they enter their bedroom with the stud.

>The Next day the man goes back to the doctor and tells him that is didn't work. The doctor then suggests that he let the oung stud have sex with his wife as he swings the towel. And so he does, and while his wife is having sex with the hot young stud she has her most powerful release ever, two which the man replies to the escort: "Ya see! That's how you swing a towel.
