Rudy and Bug were in the men's room in Rudy's poolroom.
They were looking through a book when Jokie strolled in.

"Hey what's up, man?" Jokie asked.
"Our spirits," replied Bug.

"Well I want my spirit up too.
Gimme a boost. Whatcha readin'?"

"One of Bug's sister's magazines," replied Rudy.
"Looks like some kind of geek book to me," said Jokie.

"Can't judge a book by it's cover," said Bug.
"The good stuff is on the inside."

"I'll be the judge of that," said Jokie.
"Lemme git a sneak-peek. What's it all about?"

"Sugar and spice and everything nice," said Rudy."
Jokie poked his nose in."What's the name of it?"

"Victoria's Secret," replied Bug.

"Yeow! Does it say what her secret is, man?
I always wanted to know what that is."

"Better than that, my boy, here it SHOWS,
what her secret is," replied Rudy.

"Oooooo," said Jokie, "I already knew this.
Oh...and ehh...by the way...what's that red bruise
on the side of ya face, Bug?"

"Oh that...that's the welt that lingers from a slap
from Vicky Taylor's fingers."

"OW!" said Jokie, "so, REALLY, Victoria
holds her secret in the palm of her hand?"

"Yeah," said Rudy, "Ya can't see it, man."
"But you can for sure as hell feel it," said Bug.

"Pretty much," The three of them said all together.
