Love in a Small Town (1997)
“What Are We Fighting For?
The parking lot of Rodeo Rio’s was all but empty at just before seven on Monday night. It being summer, the sun was still bright. Tommy Lee pulled the Corvette to a stop near the door, beside a Jeep Cherokee. He was glad to park so close to the door, since he didn’t have the top on his Corvette.
Inside he saw a couple of men playing pool, a man and woman at a booth, and a couple of people at a table in the back near the large television. CNN flickered on the screen, ...but all Tommy Lee could hear was George Strait singing out from the colorful Wurlitzer. He went to the bar and ordered a steak and a Mexican beer. Rodeo Rio’s only offered two things on their food menu: a third-pound hamburger or a T-bone steak.
At the same moment the bartender passed across the foaming glass of Tecate, Winn Ketchum came out the office door nearby.
“Well, hello, Tommy Lee.” Winn stuck out his hand as he came forward. “It’s been a while.”
“Hello, Winn.”
Tommy Lee shook the man’s hand, and the two of them traded a bit of b.s.MoreLess
