Hester's Story:

click on the banner at the bottom of the page to buy this picture.Well have I got a story for you...ugh this makes me sooo angry every time I even think about it.

Okay, so I'm working at an ice-cream shop for my summer job and the owners tell me that he lives in the area and occasionally his wife will drop in to order his favorite ice-cream, which I was told is peppermint-candy. But he never comes in the store. So its a rainy day and I am new to the job, and the owners decide to leave me alone for about an hour because It was not busy and they needed to run erands.

SO there I sit and wait and fester, all alone in a dreary ice cream shop when all of a sudden a guy walks in with a little boy. I politely smile and say,"can I help you"..and he says.."Well since it is such a dreary day, we decided to come in and cheer you up."

I sat there expressionless, great I thought, some creepy guy has come to cheer me up. Well he apparently thought I didn't hear him the first time so he repeated himself, and then kind of looked around the shop aimlessly. Then he pointed to the dinky, worthless radio and said,"no wonder you don't have any customers, you need a base pumping and a five changer cd player and then you will really get them in here"

I was like Riiiiggghht.

He was like "what if Keith Richards stopped by, what would you do then, he would probably leave because the music is so bad."

I just kind of smiled anxiously, and then he ordered his peppermint candy ice-cream and the boy was looking at me like, what are you , nuts!?!...

Then he was like,"you tell the owners to get a new stereo system, and tell them that Keith Richards stopped by".

I was thinking to myself,,ohh ok..that'll be the day. Then some customers came in and I was distracted and he left mumbling something like, "see now all of the customers have come, and I came to cheer you up..." I really don't remember the rest.

Then the owners came back and I told them about the incident and they asked me if he looked like the autographed picture on the wall...and I said, well actually yes he did...and Then I realized that it was actually Keith and I almost stabbed myself with the ice cream scooper...

I really am a fan of the Rolling Stones but I didn't know Keith separately and I certainly wouldn't of have recognized him...so thats my story about Keith...me alone with Keith and some boy for a good fifteen minutes and I was a complete asshole..Anyway I thought you might be interested.
