Thank you, sir! I have a list of over 200 possible scenarios, which i go to on a regular basis. However, the TOTP version literally just popped into my head, and then virtually wrote itself. I had a lot of fun writing it, which i hopes comes through.
Maybe try it in the style of an old school PI or a Thomas Magnum.
You resemble Alfred Molina, best known for his role as Dr. Otto Octavious AKA Doctor Octopus in the Spiderman movies as well as Indiana Jones' local guide in the Peruvian temple scenes in Raiders ( " You throw me the idol, I throw you the whip ).
(AI really struggles with hands and legs.) (Billy Connolly on Parkinson not Billy Parkinson. You’re just seeing if we’re awake.) Billy is always memorable, once you’ve caught on to the accent anyway. A very different version of your story.
Come on, people! How come ain't nobody identified the REAL song and artist out of that lot?
I'm late to the party. Just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed this one, Terry. Hilarious!
Oh, thanks very much, Jim! Glad you enjoyed it. Just of interest, was there any particular "chart entry" you enjoyed more than others? 😄
Genius, Terry. Just when I think there can't be anything wildly original left to come, and then there's this!
Was this one that just popped into your head randomly?
I think this is my favourite line: Top four time now, and it’s Put On Your Mask and Stay Away, by The Paranoids.

Sure does!
😀
Oh Terry, this is priceless! I laughed out loud when I got to 'I Done Read A Book, by The Swots'.
🤣
😅
"I Need A Doctor" by the Hypochrondriacs. Not to be confused with the old Ray Charles hit, "I Don't Need No Doctor".
Oh i hadn’t heard of that song. Thanks!
Put On Your Mask and Stay Away, by The Paranoids
I Never Wrote Nothing (And I Don’t Care), by The Scribes.
I Can’t Wait No More by The Triage
HILARIOUS, Terry. Just hilarious!
Thanks Sharron, glad you enjoyed it 😃
Enjoyable to the max! As the country gets a new guy at the top and frigid temperatures glue us down❣️
Thanks Jill, glad you liked it 😃

I did a harboiled Philip Marlowe-type version: https://terryfreedman.substack.com/p/experiments-in-style-hardboiled?utm_source=publication-search
I did, & still occasionally still do, Telly Savalas / Kojak. " Hey ! Who loves ya, baby ? " 🍭🍭
Chortle!

Thanks for pointing out the error, Beth. AI struggles with hands too!
I struggle with AI...🥹
Me too! I can't even spell it....!
🤣
So does AI
