| Ellis Joltman |
| Hey, kid. Kid, nuthin'. Name's Ellis Joltman. Ellis? What, what is that, a nickname? No, that happens to be what me mother called me. Sorry. So, how old are ya, kid? Ellis! Right, Ellis. Thanks. Well, I'm 18 this March 9. Ain't that nice. S'anyways, what's your story? You mean, about my life? Well, I'se born in the Ellis Island immigration buildin'. That's where I got me name, see? Me mother was too much of a lazy old bat to really think me up a good name. Anyways, I got out of there, and when I was about 2, my mother started with the whole "scarlet lady" thing. You know... Well, when I was 6, she just never came home... The landlord took care of me until I'se 12. He started to go bankrupt, and right away I was in a lodgin' house, learnin' to sell papes. I was such a cute little kid, people bought 'em all up! Somewhere's between then and now, I met Hart. She's a peach... Yeah. A real livin' doll. So, what you got for personality? Well, I got one. A lot of people say that I'se conceited. Can you belie' that? Just 'cause I knows that I have a gorgeous mug. The landlord said that I was assertive, and I s'pose I might be. I don't rightly know what it is... I don't mind fights, 'less a girl gets in it. You can never tell if they'se gonna break straight off, or knock your brains out. OK, that takes care of my next two questions... What? Ah, one for the records, about your looks, an--- Tall, gorgeous, blond hair what kinda hangs over me eyes, what is blue. And skin that's as smooth as--- Thanks, but I said you already answered it. T'other one was about whether you does or doesn't have a girl. Weren't you listenin'?!? Hart's me girl! Yeah, I KNOW! Geez la-wheez! Who's Louise? LAST QUESTION! Any family!?!? No, I... OK, thank you, NOW GET OUT!!! |
