Uno: When in Doubt Blame America

[He wakes up and blinks slowly. This isn’t his house. He can tell just from laying there. This place is too....he looks around and after a bit of searching finds the phone. Have an incredibly angry Cuban yelling at you Mayfield, thick accent included]

America!

What do you think you’re pulling, kidnapping me like this?

If this is another one of your stupid schemes to kill my boss, I swear....

[There's a pause as he sighes and looks around.]

Shit. Your house is worse than I thought.

I know...

But he doesn't know that...I don't think he does anyway.

What...how the Hell can he not know?

It wasn't that long ago.

I forget what year he was brought here from. It was in the 50s.

[commie-island.livejournal.com]

"What year?"

Mattie what are you talking about?

[mr-blandy-bland.livejournal.com]

We're not all from the same time here.

[commie-island.livejournal.com]

The same time? How is that possible?

[mr-blandy-bland.livejournal.com]

I was brought here in 2009. And nothings impossible here.

[commie-island.livejournal.com]

2009!

Wha-

[mr-blandy-bland.livejournal.com]

I think Mr. Japan, Netherlands, Belgium, and a few others were also taken in 2009 or 2010.

[commie-island.livejournal.com]

Tha...that makes even less sense.

Last time I checked it was 1988.

[mr-blandy-bland.livejournal.com]

Well, if you factor in it being 195X now....does it really matter what year it was when we ended up here?

[commie-island.livejournal.com]

I...guess not.

[He's just trying to wrap his head around this. He shakes it off and then decides to ask]

So Mattie. What's the future like then?

[mr-blandy-bland.livejournal.com]

It's pretty much the same...but everyone's sick.

[commie-island.livejournal.com]

Sick?

[mr-blandy-bland.livejournal.com]

A lot of our economies aren't that good right now...they're a lot worse then they were in the late 80s.

[commie-island.livejournal.com]

Well shit.

Are you doing alright?

[mr-blandy-bland.livejournal.com]

Slightly better then America at least.
