511. "Sush" Yuniyoshi has a request...

 

Sush Yuniyoshi, author of the coffee table book sensation, "Brrrr...How Cold is this Blood, Already?", called up Nic the Senior Manager a while back with a request. Fresh off his success after a round of television appearances and fish parties, his cousin, an aspiring writer, had  been suffering from writer's block and just needed to get away for a bit, so joined a traveling female impersonator review as the "boy" master of ceremonies.

307. Newspaper man interviews Hoosegow inmates in old crud

 A nationally known newspaper man, checking into Loveless Motel as Sushi Yunioshi, is spending his vacation "interviewing" recent inhabitants of the Hoosegow for an upcoming literary project he's working on. We asked Mr. Yunioshi ("Just call me Sush" he said to the clerk, putting his index finger to his pursed lips) if he preferred to have inmates sent to his room one at a time, or in small groups, and he opted for groups, stating he wanted to make sure there were witnesses, but "don't bother cleaning them up" He was particularly interested to know if we had any who might have recently been in Kansas.
