Frankie the Hell Raiser from Burgundyville
There once was a man named Frankie. Frankie was big in the sports card trading business. Frankie was big also at the shipyard where he liked to open boxes and put his keys on the shelf while he fished for his special box cutter in his pocket. One day, his keys disappeared. This caused Frankie some major consternation and Frankie swore that he would stop at nothing to find whoever may have moved or taken his keys. Sadly Frankie had not realized that he had just left his keys in his house. This was noted by many people he knew and he was returned to his home in a very angry mood. When he realized that his keys were at home he was relieved but quickly felt angry that he had become so angered. This caused the shipyard to name him Frankie the Hellraiser. Frankie remembered this incident many times in the future and usually when you met Frankie, it seemed he was ready to raise Hell again and again. So Frankie keeps dealing the sports cards to children who want to trade baseball cards and the like. But I must say that I wonder about Frankie's day some of the time. Thanks Frankie. The cards were really neat. But be careful with that box cutter. You don't want to lose your keys for real, huh? Thanks!
