Captin Dusbim to the Rescue?

Captin Dusbim to the Rescue?


Every country has its superheroes and Super-villains, ever wonder why ‘superhero’ is one word while ‘Super-villian’ has a hyphen? Wonder no more, we at Guysnooze have done all the heavy lifting for you, see, no child grows up saying “ I want to be a thief or villain” it takes supervision or lack of thereof to turn our youth to a life of crime or being the bad guy… so while good guys (superheroes) stand alone , Villains tend to congregate in groups or as we call them in GT..Political Parties… that aside, we witnessed today the epic showdown between the forces of good and evil as Captin Dusbim took on the villainous syndicate of Parking Meter Men.

It all began as most struggles of good and evil are wont to, by a damsel in distress, our Mayoress was lil brucks and cut a deal…wait…what? .. Editor’s Note: This is not that kind of publication, save that for Mills & Boon.(Delete)

It all began as Captin Dusbim staged his Quixotic one man protest against the imposition of Smart Man Inc. Metered Parking in areas of GT, wearing a cardboard sign that said “Paid Parking Sucks” .Dusbim who is not unknown to members of the Press corps, was holding forth on the evils of the Smart Man Inc. System when he was confronted by the evil duo Parking Meter Man and his sidekick Police Fren (PF), Parking Meter Man opened hostilities by telling Captin Dusbim to take his protest out of one of the parking slots as he was preventing people from using it, “is either dat or pay for the time you occupying it bitch” … Dusbim looked incredulously up and down the empty street “what cars?” he asked, “you ent see people boycotting your paid parking scheme?” …Parking Meter man responded by saying “you have a bicycle, why you even protesting? Is it because you ent get a cut or because you is a publicity whore?”… well the Good Captin Dusbim tongue get tied, instead of answering he started to march up and down with his cardboard sign shouting “down with paid parking!”… this standoff continued for a while until another publicity whore  Prominent Spokesperson for the Smart Men dem turned up and began shouting instructions to Parking Meter Man… “Don’t argue with that idiot, let you little friend lock him up for loitering” …. Parking Meter Man thusly galvanized into action said to Police Fren “yes, after all you is me sidechick, help me out nah, the boss watching”… Police Fren bristled and replied frostily “ I am a SideKICK , not chick” …which led Parking Meter Man to “ really you cud see the future an’ ting? Well wha is the lotto numbers tomorrow?” ….  Police Fren “I could see you getting in trouble with the stooge you calling boss, Look Captin RubbishBim, if you don’t move along I will arrest you for loitering, if you put the sign down to rest I will arrest you for littering and as is you facing a whoring charge for pandering to media!, so what will it be?”….the beleaguered Captin refused to buckle under pressure and shouted back ‘you think that Skit is yuh boss? Or Eyefah Cash? You think Skit working for a small time hustler Like Cash..no no… the real Kingpin is …Shalom Bar Mitzvah or something’…”… both Police Fren and Parking Meter man whirled to look askance of the chief stooge...but he had used his not inconsiderable talent of vanishing in the face of real revelations.

It was at this juncture that a further attack on our intrepid hero came from an unlikely source, a stab in the back from a former champion of the people, now sadly turned villain, the Dam Ass himself, it is said that he lost his mind by reading the comments of his followers, only a dam ass would do something that stupid, so now crazed by the ingested bile and fueled by fear of his horse losing public favor, Dam Ass struck a back in time blow, dredging up statements made by the Dusbim terrier years earlier in SUPPORT  of Paid Parking, Captin Dusbim attempted to make this contest a battle of wits, however in such battles the unarmed rarely fare well, launching a tirade that began with “ The Dam Ass has ‘rehearsed’ old claims against me… obviously confusing to the intelligent who would have expected that a ‘law’ student would have used ‘rehashed’ instead, those who continued to listen or read do have more patience with fools than is usually the case. Our hero having emerged from the dust-up with the Dam Ass bloodied, refused to accept defeat, an unlikely ally appeared in the form of  Comrade Red House who promised to Pause Paid Parking , however Captin Dusbim rejected this alliance and instead forged one with the Teachers Marching Band, oh they sung and danced in the street, they walked , they talked and then they launched an assault on the feared master of Propaganda, the one, the only, The Neemakaram himself, it did not go well, they stupidly lit candles when it is obvious that they needed torches and pitchforks to drive this monster out, so they gathered …the tension grew and then … the Neemakaram struck, he crept into their midst, he sung their songs or resistance , he identified with them, he too was against paid parking, but what could he, a mere Neemakaram do? .., poor Captin Dusbim and the Teacher’s Choir they ate the lotus and were lost.


Today they all hustled to buy parking cards or parked miles away and trekked into town on foot, their battle lost, not with a bang but with a song, the siren Song of the Neemakaram.
