gary warner and ted rogers


by nick nelson




gary warner was walking down the street when he was approached by a young woman wielding a red phone.

excuse me, the young woman asked gary, can i ask you a few questions?

maybe.

do you know a man named ted rogers?

that is a pretty common name.

this ted rogers wears a man bun and was on the wilson high basketball team but did not play much and is a big warriors and steph curry fan.

oh yeah, i know that guy.

do you know him well?

he is not my best friend but i know him.

do you mind answering a few questions about him?

if they don’t take too long.

on a scale of 1 to 10, how would you rate ted rogers as a person generally, 1 being poor and 10 being excellent?

um - a 4.

how would you rate him as a possible president of the united states?

a 5.

as the leader of a platoon stranded in the jungles of mars?

there aren’t any jungles on mars.

in a jungle on the fourth planet of the andromeda galaxy?

a 3.

how would you rate him as a deadly assassin, assuming he was properly trained?

3.5.

how would you rate ted rogers as a husband and father?

i did not know he was married or had any kids.

he has been married to the same woman for six years and has two kids.

wow, he sounds like a real family man, i will give him a 6 - make it a 7.

how would you rate him on looks?

he was kind of an ugly bastard, i will give him a 2.

how would you rate him on racism, sexism, homophobia and transphobia?

um - i do not know him well enough to say. i do not recall discussing any of those things with him.

thank you vey much, you have been very helpful.

you are welcome.

gary left the young woman entering some notes on her phone, and continued down the street to the parking garage.

suddenly it hit him.

somebody somewhere might be asking questions like that - or even worse - about him, gary warner!

it made him stop and think.

but - what could he do about it?
