Stung: romance

By B. Sting

Camping with a new girlfriend can be fun, but remember to get her phone number, just in case you fall in love with her, which can happen very, very easily. Guys who drive around in sports cars with champagne and wine glasses are no exception. They are not insulated from the charms of girls who like to go camping.

There are many other ways to get stung.

Perhaps you are a time traveler, find out your name is Rip Van Winkle, and meet a girl named Lolita.

Or, you ask a female cyborg to dance at a sidewalk cafe.

Then, maybe, you are attracted to the boss' daughter.

If you've been to Bonages, New York, you understand the terror of Rip Van Winkle waking up there. 

Then you will easily imagine the fear and loathing experienced by Bernard Notlieb when he opened his eyes to find himself staring at the inside of a no-star motel on the outskirts of the Catskills in the Greene County village in upstate New York known as Bonages.

Bonages is so bad it drove world heavyweight champion Ricky White insane. So off his rocker that even marrying a Hollywood TV actress was not enough to deter his plummet into prison, plus all that facial tattooing. 

No. No way you want to wake up in Bonages, no matter how long you've been asleep or unconscious.

Best course of action is to never wake up, if you end up there, even if there is no bowling going on upstairs.

So, Notlieb was practically a blithering idiot once he'd discovered that somehow he'd been transported to the horrible locale known as Bonages.

Where the hell am I? he inquired of the desk clerk, after making his way through the hazardous aluminum screen door that Vladimir Nobokov probably used when he checked in with his underage girls.

Bonages. Why?

I, like, can't figure out how I got here.

She giggled and said, Well, you were a little tipsy last night.

Then, he heard from behind him, Hi, hon. What's going on?

Notlieb turned to see a bleach-blonde former hippie-chick grinning at him.

He was about to say, Do I know you? But, in all his cowardice, he was afraid she'd whip
