Today, someone told me the Tula packs quite a kick and would knock a woman on her butt. I have been debating whether or not my Bond woman would be armed. I did visualize a scenario where she may kill someone with a Tula. But, the jury is out. This Tula belonged to Starfish’s father. It was his survival rifle. Starfish conducts these bombastic exaggerated rituals with her gun. It is – the Russian Way!

After Starfish’s mother saw Ballad of a Soldier, she had to have a Russian, and, any Russian would do. She looked just like the Russian Star. There was a lot of play-acting. Ivan would nail her two or three times a night. After his track coach saw him walking bowl-legged, he considered calling the FBI on Zanyia, a U.S. citizen. They had a talk.

“It’s her mouth, coach. I think about IT all day!”

So, her mouth makes you want to have sex all day!”

“No! Her mouth makes me want to die – for her! I want to die for the want of just one kiss!”

“This is not good. Being a romantic and track star, do not mix! I forbid you to see her!”

“No! Don’t do that. It will only make matters worse! Please! You don’t understand! You are playing into her hands. This is exactly what she wants. She’s – playing you!”
