Gun Shop Revisited Part One

                                                                  Gun Shop

Springfield	Good morning, sir.
Mousebender	Good Morning. I was practicing at the Shoot Straight Range just now, skimming through the'Outdoor Life'  Guns and Girls article, when suddenly I came over all jonesy.
Springfield	Jonesy, sir?
Mousebender	Esurient.
Springfield	Eh?
Mousebender	(broad Yorkshire) Eee I were all trigger happy, like!
Springfield	Oh, trigger happy.
Mousebender	In a nutshell. So I thought to myself, 'a little equalizer will do the trick'. So I curtailed my Outdoor lifeing   activites, sallied forth and infiltrated your place of purveyance to negotiate the vending of  some ordinance provender. (smacks his lips)
Springfield	Come again.
Mousebender	(broad northern accent) I want to buy a gun.
Springfield	Oh, I thought you were complaining about the help!
Mousebender	(normal voice) Heaven forbid. I am one who delights in all manifestations of the terpsichorean muse.
Springfield	Sorry?
Mousebender	I like a nice dance - you're forced to.
Mousebender	(normal voice) Now my good man, some guns, please.
Springfield	Yes certainly, sir. What would you like?
Mousebender	Well, how about a little ALFA LR 22.
Springfield	I'm, afraid we're fresh out of LR 22s, sir.
Mousebender	Oh, never mind. How are you on Defenders?
Springfield	Never at the end of the week, sir. Always get it stocked first thing on Monday.
Mousebender	Tish tish. No matter. Well, an AutoMag IV, then, if you please, stout yeoman.
Springfield	Ah well, it's been on order for two weeks, sir, I was expecting it this morning.
Mousebender	Yes, it's not my day, is it? Er, APS Stechkin?
Springfield	Sorry.

Mousebender	You do! Excellent.
Springfield	It's a bit rusty, sir.
Mousebender	Oh, I like them rusty.
Springfield	Well as a matter of fact it's very rusty, sir.
Mousebender	No matter. No matter. Hand over the Arma favorita din Romania, la Cugir, va multumesc.
Springfield	I think it's rustier than you like it, sir.
Mousebender	(smiling grimly) I don't care how oxidatively rusty it is. Hand it over with all speed.

Mousebender	No, no, no, don't tell me. I'm keen to guess.
Springfield	Fair enough.
Mousebender	Springfield.
Springfield	Yes, sir?
Mousebender	Splendid. Well, I'll have one of them then, please.

	(pause)
Mousebender	Well let's keep it simple, how about a Colt?
Springfield	Well, I'm afraid we don't get much call for it around these parts.
Mousebender	Not call for it? It's the single most popular gun in the world!
Springfield	Not round these parts, sir.
Mousebender	And pray what is the most popular gun round these parts?
Springfield	Uhlinger 32, sir.
Mousebender	I see.
Springfield	Yes, sir. It's quite staggeringly popular in the manor, squire.
Mousebender	Is it.
Springfield	Yes sir, it's our number-one seller.
Mousebender	Is it.
Springfield	Yes sir.
Mousebender	Uhlinger, eh?
Springfield	Right.
Mousebender	OK, I'm game. Have you got any, he asked, expecting the answer no?
Springfield	I'll have a look, sir...nnnnnnooooooooo.
Mousebender	It's not much of a gun shop really, is it?
Springfield	Finest in the district, sir.
Mousebender	And what leads you to that conclusion?
Springfield	Well, it's so safe.
Mousebender	Well, it's certainly safe from guns.
Springfield	You haven't asked me about a Glock, sir.
Mousebender	Is it worth it?
Springfield	Could be.
Mousebender	OK, have you...will you shut that bloody dancing up! (the music stops)
Springfield	(to dancers) Told you so.See actual Cheese Shop Skit
Mousebender	Have you got any Glocks?
Springfield	No.
Mousebender	No, that figures. It was pretty predictable, really. It was an act of purest optimism to pose the question in       the first place. Tell me something, do you have any guns at all?
Springfield	Yes, sir.
Mousebender	Now you liberalized skirt wearing homo, I'm going to ask you that question once more, and if you say 'no'           I'm going to shoot you through the head. Now, do you have any guns at all?
Springfield	No.
Mousebender	(shoots him) What a senseless waste of human life.
