"What are you trying to tell me--that because you're on top of some water that you're like that Lenny Daprice?"
"Leonardo DiCaprio."
"I got you close," I said. "What will it take to make this go smoothly?"
I thought Myx would be happy--we were inside, nice and warm--and he was on a flat surface, free from the danger of falling. These conditions always brought out a playfulness in him, which made my job much easier.
"Make me an offer I can't refuse," Myx said in a muffled, gurgly voice.
"Another movie quote? Don't you want to be good and get this over with?"
"Frankly, Dave, I don't give a damn!"
With Myx, once a pattern was forming--it just kept forming.
"If you don't behave--back on the shelf you go." Myx would call my bluff, no doubt.
"Make my day!"
Told you. And he was still quoting.
"Hold still, I'm taking the picture." As I snapped it, he got in one last jibe.
"Here's looking at you, kid!"
