This is sort of a story about “Pump Up the Volume”, a movie made in 1990. It’s about a shy boy portrayed by Christian Slater who has a secret identity. At night he provides provocative commentary on a radio channel that is listened to by fellow students. It’s relevant and comedic and sad all in one. If you’re looking for something new, try this “oldie”. As usual with a prompt I go straight to music or movies.

Mike headed for the balcony of the bank overlooking the protestors. He was trying to over shout the fantasm the bank’s scoundrel of a president created. He stood above the “common” people below. Mike could only hear the broadcast through his headphone’s earpiece. All the promises the bank manager initially made getting the poorer public to put their funds into a secured account at his bank were now only a fantasy. Like so many power full administrators before him, he took advantage of their meager accounts, closing them, holding the money till he could transfer them to his own offshore accounts.

He drove up to the farm in a black BMW and strode right out to the henhouse. Curious as to the visitor, the old woman came out of her home carrying a threatening cane at her side. “What do you think you’re doing?”
The gentleman replied, “ I’m here to ask the henessars some questions.”
“The what?”
“The henessars! The ones who take such wonderful care of their broods that produce the best eggs in the county!”
The old lady put the cane down and smiled. “How about a cup of cider?” The two sat on the porch and had a talk.

Marie and Michael looked at the odd sign placed here years ago. She remembered better than Mike because she was the one standing there on the wood platform. He was coming home after Korean War and was one of the lucky ones to arrive relatively unharmed. They stood in silence in the now overgrown area, but the memories of that wonderful reunion and the train’s screeching wheels drowning her sobs. It was taking off down the track again, to deposit more soldiers to their own home towns.
