In a few days, it would be worth a beer at a local bar and not worth a squeaky fart to an investigator. “Like I told the officer, here, I came in like I always do and turned on the lights and started the water and checked the gauges.”
“Gauges?”
“Temperature, humidity. They’re supposed to be computerized and all, but I still keep an eye on them.MoreLess
