Caruso entered the house and viewed each item as having an identity of it's own, it's funny how since all the stuff he saw took on an entirely new meaning, it was like he was now attaching meaning, to the meaningless, somehow life was beginning to make sense.
So he walked over to the phone and called the only person close to him that might understand what it might be like to be Caruso J Sundance right now and called Benny.
Now, Benny and himself shared similar views like music, food (sometimes when they went for all you can eat at the Chinese buffet, they literally ate more than they could eat (and suffered as a consequence for days), women were another thing they agreed on, not that Benny ever had a girlfriend, he never needed one anyway, after all, he had his mom.
And anyways, he was after all only 34, 'Plenty of time for me in that department' some times he would tell his mothers friends, 'To land the right fish, you need the right bait', and wait for them to nod and agree with him, after all it made perfect sense, to anyone with sense that is!
It was easy to agree with Benny on most things, what was not to like? But i did say most things and not all things, one of the biggest things about Benny, well the trouble with Benny was he had a fear of all things to do with nature, for Benny if he couldn't see nature on TV, it probably wasn't worth looking at in nature, his room didn't even have windows!
So you can imagine a house visit from him at the farm was a bit much, him coming Oak st, was no problem, he could drive, even though he lived around the corner, that's another thing about his best friend, he thinks walking is for losers.
But what they both shared an interest was in music, Benny once said, 'Sundance, there are only two kinds of people in the world, those conceived to the Jay Z Album, The black album and those conceived to The Beetles, The white album' and along comes a DJ called Danger mouse mixes them and we get 'The Grey album', boom!' As if it was the big bang all over, the beginning of the universe which it was, for Benny anyways and did a hand explosion mime and looked up at the light fitting, which was a bit like the Sun for him, not that he spent much time out doors either, sunblock? He never got exposed to sun long enough to need the stuff?
A doctor once told him mother years ago that he had, 'Nature deficit disorder', not that any of that was important now, he was grown up now, he knew what he liked and besides that was years ago.
Benny wasn't sure if he had the right address, or if this was another one of Caruso's phases, he was informed to come over, 'To see my new place, i've come into a bit of money' and he still had the $10,000, minus the cost of 2 chocolate bars and a bottle of coke, he needed to have breakfast, a man cant run on empty you know?
Not that any of this made any sense to Mr Magoo, as he wagged his tail as if to indicate WTF is going on here?
There might be different kinds of sense, but all his senses, including cat sense were failing to comprehend the situation at large, Mr Smith, the Labrador looked at Mr Magoo for a sign, anything to indicate whether he should bark or go up for a pat and maybe belly rub, but if the cat knew something, it wasn't giving it up, cats can be like that, it was a cats life, sure, but he was doing just fine being a dog right now
'Benny, my dear fellow, please open the door and just let yourself in', came a familiar voice
Dude, are you breaking in or something, i don't want to get arrested in one of your little stunts, he was always in and out of phases, that was pretty much his reason for some of the things he does, it's just a phase i'm going through from the cleaning frenzy where he claimed to see bacteria, the money he lost on horse betting to the piercing and tattoos he got, and he still has them in fact, so i guess that little phase hasn't run it's course yet?
Do you need to know about the time the drive was broken on his car, so instead he reversed everywhere, well thats Benny in a nutshell
And for trivia, Caruso's pet subject, did it matter in knowing that there are 7 colors in a rainbow? Or that the band U2 were once known as 'Feedback', it just did not register on the richter scale of his world.
'Why Benny come on up' said a man wearing a fur coat at the top of the stair case, 'Dude, this is serious man, you could get jail for this, i mean if someone comes back and catches us?', ' No problem', said Caruso, 'i own everything' and he began explaining to his guest the latest change on fortune that befell him, it did feel good to tell someone, some one that cared and then Caruso phone rang, it was Daisy, his girlfriend, he's call her back later, some things were more important and retold the story, careful not to leave out any facts or figures, if it didn't make sense to him, what chance would Benny have?
'And it all fits in with a dream i had last week' said Caruso, i had a dream i found major dinero under my bed. But i didn't take it, but i had thought's of claiming the big prize', well Caruso, finders are keepers i guess? Said Benny and moved around the house to inspect it and the contents, stopping to look, admire, sometimes bemused, but not with wonder, half this stuff was made in the 60's, it might as well have been in a museum for all the value Benny could muster in his body
'You want that old statue' said Benny, 'Not Maria, she's mine' replied Caruso tersely as he turned to look his friend in the eye, 'No problems, Caruso, i'm half starved, you have any food in this place?'
'Yeah', and off the two friends went to see what wondrous food taste's they might have in common with an old lady, do old people even like peanut butter? Where is the cheese? What were bran flakes for, none of his Trivia education came to light, you certainly couldn't eat them, like ever! Maybe the bran flakes were for the dog?
All this and scavenging for food watched on by Mr Magoo, he couldn't but help but admire the intruders ability eat food when they wanted, and it wasn't even their food, clever he thought, it was certainly something he had never thought of, 'interesting', he meowed, he would have to keep an eye on these two
And after all you cant teach old dogs new tricks, dogs were a bit stupid, Magoo had been around the traps and he was a cat, he learnt something new ever day, but he was at quite a loss to figure what was going on here? Mt Smith had long given up on his standoff and was now eating some corned beef and getting a pat, 'disgusting, just like a dog' he commented.
Not that any of this made sense to Countess Maria, from her bird's eye location as she wondered what the future had in store for her now these cowboys were on the scene? 'Could they be homosexuals?' she thought? That answer was answered by Benny licking some chocolate spread off of the floor, 'interesting' she thought
So he walked over to the phone and called the only person close to him that might understand what it might be like to be Caruso J Sundance right now and called Benny.
