Week 5 - "A Pair of Aces"

Ace was not his real name.

When he was in sixth grade and started to notice girls he began to pay more attention to how he dressed and combed his hair. Back then, the style was to carry a long folding wallet that would stick out in the back pocket of a boy's jeans along with a full length comb. Ace spent a good deal of his time that summer trying to decide which pocket he should carry his wallet and comb and he would switch them around from one day the the next and look at his backside in the mirror to determine which pocket of his Levi jeans his comb and wallet look best in.

Week 4 - "Ace of the Courts"

On Monday morning, Dan and Jay were at their usual spot near the company coffee machine dissecting Sunday's football game. Like most men in their mid thirties they loved sports. Hockey, basketball, baseball and football - especially football. They didn't actually play any sports but they sure liked to watch them on TV from the comfort of their soft couches and recliners.
