As it happened, the young man with whom Muffy was touring Europe was a trapeze artist on summer break from the Greatest Show on Earth. (So muscular were his shoulders and lithe his tawny body, that to lay eyes on this Adonis was to know in your heart and yes, I shall speak it out because it is Truth, it was to know in your very loins that his profession must needs involve vigorous and skilled physical activity including hanging from the ceiling.)
Finding at the end of the summer that her thirst for adventure had not yet been quenched (as had not, dear reader, if truth be known, her thirst for Rudolfo, or, as the circus wenches were wont to call him, Rudolfo the Hot), Muffy accompanied the handsome ("handsome"? Fie !!-- the word makes light of this glorious being's intense physical magnetism!) Oh, la!, Oh, Geez! Oh,....uh... where was I, oh yes, Muffy, her sweet face flushed, her breath coming faster and faster as she and Rudolfo sped across the countryside on the Harley, accompanied the magnificent specimen to the circus grounds.
It should be mentioned that Rudolfo, being a religious lad, had (with some difficulty) held himself back from satisfying Muffy's ardent romantic importunings.
Being little skilled and less intelligent, there was little Muffy could offer the circus in exchange for the privilege of taking up an extended residence there with Rudolfo, or, as the circus lads were wont to call him, "Rudolfo, Stud of Studs."
The circus management in the person of one gentleman who called himself only "Mex", provided an idea. |
