An Illegal Smile:
An illegal smile follows an idiot, me, through childhood and into early ‘adulthood’. It is the 1960’s and 1970’s. The ‘times they are a changin’ said Mr. Dylan. He was correct. Alcohol abuse, drug abuse, sexual adventure, stupidity…the wonder years.
These stories are both true and oddly unsettling. They were written for my friends. It was decided that more might find them entertaining. So, here you go. Enjoy!

Uncle Tom's Quality Used Cars
Gabriel Thomas Hardee passed in the spring of 1981. Known as ‘Uncle Tom’, proprietor of Uncle Tom’s Quality Used Cars to most, Hardee also quietly held numerous properties scattered about his hometown of Bird in Hand Bay and the surrounding areas of picturesque Bruce Peninsula which divides Georgian Bay from Lake Huron.
Estranged brother Earl Cain Hardee was certain those properties would soon be his. He was mistaken. Uncle Tom had left his holdings to a variety of charities and humans, none named Earl.
Local Mayor and certified weasel Freddy ‘Skin’ Flint and Alderman Jack ‘the Rat’ Gerwin had been hoping to use Earls inherited land to turn Bird in Hand Bay into yet one more tourist port-a-potty in a string of tourist port-a-potties strung along the Niagara Escarpment. Once word had filtered down the men, with poor old Earl as sidekick, commenced with plan B. Plan B involved a phony historical hospital, historical sights now being the flavour of the month, tourista-wise. Former historian and present-day shoe salesman Dr. Felix Worthington-Jones was, for a fee, more than happy to supply them one. And, not just any historical hospital, but one that had served in The War of 1812. That the plot of land now known as Bird in Hand Bay had been miles and miles and miles from any actual battles mattered not to Flint and The Rat.
