[Superman]

I just read a couple of excellent short stories on this forum, so I thought I'd share one. Perhaps open a new topic, if any of you have spent enough time on barstools to see some cool stuff.

It was closing time at a local meet market. Nice place. The place had two or three floor levels. I was sitting at the bar on the highest level. The bartender was standing on a floor a foot or two lower. He was also short. And stocky.

Behind me was the dance floor, also a foot or two lower, which was lined with booths. A couple of guys were in a booth there, talking to the barmaid. The place was deserted except for the cast I have just described.

The barmaid was a really nice blonde lady. Tall. LONG legs. Well-endowed, if you know what I mean. She happened to be the bartender's wife.

I noticed the bartender had stopped listening to my riveting monologue. All of a sudden the bartender climbs and summits the bar, stomps down to the booth and (I'm not kidding here) grabs a guy by the shirt collar and the rear of his belt and SPRINTS, carrying this guy, toward the door. The guy is trying to touch the ground with his feet. The bartender opens two sets of double-doors with this guy's head and pitches him into the parking lot.

It was just like a dang cartoon. I guess he must have said something inappropriate to the barmaid.
