This week’s Story Starter teaser is: Ross opened the fortune cookie that was delivered with his Chinese take-out and was shocked when he read the message inside telling him that his life was in danger and that he needed to leave the city immediately.
It’s not like he hadn’t wanted to leave the city anyways, but this might be the last straw. Ross shoved the tiny warning into his pants pocket and started in on his lunch. He liked the weather here—today, sunny, warm breeze, and savored the spicy Chinese noodles. Then he began thinking that San Diego also had this kind of weather, and no bad memories. After lunch he called his boss and asked if that offer for a transfer to San Diego was still good.

If you are a regular at our pub, you know the drill. For those new to Q, write a verse of exact 44 words (excluding the title) using pepper or any form of the word like peppering, peppered or peppermint.
Get your red, hot, chili peppers here
No need for trepidation fear
There’s green and red and yellow too,
But honestly, the tiniest ones rule!
They’re native from the Philippines, sir
Eighty thousand Scoville heat units per
Acidic drinks help cool the spicy churr.

John Wayne, actor, in his numerous “cowboy” roles, was famous for being as close to the hard boiled man he usually portrayed. Once in a while he played a vulnerable male figure, such as in “The Quiet Man” but on the whole he was never afraid to throw a punch or raise a gun or call someone a yellow belly.
Other “heroic” figures in the media of that era were less forceful, such as Hop-along Cassidy, The Lone Ranger, The Cisco Kid, or Roy Rogers. Roy was probably the most sincere as he led a life similar to the cinematic character he played.
These characters were born out of hard times in the general public, with high unemployment, post war troubles and economic decline. Every American needed a hero and often chose the western icons.

The usually gregarious senator suddenly started to sink in his chair, and eventually a complete collapse to the floor. The newsfeed on the tv monitor had just announced the alliance between the two houses of congress which he had been furiously trying to dissolve. His anxious secretary ran to fetch a cup of tea, but the senator had to be taken to the hospital. A governor, a Mr. DeSantis, was found in the bed beside him at the ER.
