On our travels to the port we made a quick pit stop along they way. Since we are driving to the port with Mr. S's parents, we are dropping off one of our automobiles at Mr. S's Aunt and Uncle's house. Apparently the fee to park in this part of town is quite steep! In fact they insisted in lieu of money that Mr. S must solve some of their ongoing computer issues. I have never heard of this type of barter system in Gnomistan but I do like it indeed. Finally my degree in computer science from GIT (Gnomistan Institute of Technology) will be of some use!
The surprises did not stop there! While Mr S was haggling with the proprietor of this parking lot, I made a SHOCKING discovery. Out from the parking garage came my long lost cousin Vito from Jersey! I have not set eyes upon him from many years. My, the cold Jersey nights have not been kind to him. He seems to have shrunk several inches since I have seen him last and his skin looks all rubbery. He is also much more gruff than I remember and he seems to have a vacant look in his eyes. With a little arm twisting, I was able to talk him into coming on our journey. It seems anything is better than working at the parking lot in New Jersey.
