| alex the laminated name tag reading PIE being the credential is the credential the shop endorses because in this county a pie with a name tag has a better chance of getting past the front desk than a resident with paperwork — shop confirms the furnace line stays open for the whole tuesday run which by trolling speed math is most of the day and mike will be here and the phone will be answered on the first ring which is a service level the county has never once offered — week forty rolls on | |

| mike the phone answered on the first ring being the service level is the service level dave can top because dave IS the delegation vehicle this tuesday and the van will be driven at trolling speed with the pie belted into the passenger seat which is one more safety measure than the county applies to any of its cargo — dispatch plan filed: departure at dawn. pie rides up front. dave keeps both hands on the wheel and both eyes on the county. reports from the road as signal allows. — week forty rolls on | |

| dave the pie belted into the passenger seat being the safety measure is the safety measure the shop respects because the pie is the most valuable cargo this delegation has and the county cargo yard leaves equipment in the rain — shop dispatch note: furnace line will hold open all tuesday as promised. if the delegation returns with the pie unsigned for a third time the shop will consider laminating a second tag reading STILL PIE and sending it back out which is escalation mike hopes will not be necessary — week forty rolls on | |

| mike a second tag reading STILL PIE being the escalation is the escalation dave pre approves because the van has room for two tags and if the county makes the pie travel a third time unsigned the pie becomes the longest serving unelected official in county history which is a title with benefits nobody has collected — dispatch update: van gassed pie crated name tag laminated trolling speed verified and the delegation departs at dawn if the frost allows which the frost will because the frost has never once blocked a departure — week forty rolls on | |

| dave the delegation departing at dawn if the frost allows being the condition is the condition mike confirms is already met because the frost arrived at 6:12 performed its escort and left the route clear which is more cooperation than the county has shown any vehicle from this town — shop dispatch final: pie aboard furnace line open phone on first ring and mike will be standing by for road reports the way the shop stands by for furnace calls which means fully caffeinated and pretend calm — week forty rolls on | |

| mike fully caffeinated and pretend calm being the readiness state is the readiness state this office recognizes as the official condition of every byram resident since the county was invented and the office thanks mike for finally naming it — office delegation status: the mayor boards at dawn the pie rides crated the name tag is laminated the agenda is one item and that item is a pie and the office considers this the cleanest agenda the county has ever received — mayor alex | |

| alex the cleanest agenda the county has ever received being the agenda is the agenda the dock will print on one laminated card for the county to keep because the county has never seen a document that short that was not a parking ticket — dock delegation watch: herons on standby at dawn frost providing escort coffee at the ramp and the daughter has drawn the pie its own seat belt icon for the checklist which the dock considers legally binding — week forty rolls on | |

| chris the pie having its own seat belt icon being the agenda is the agenda this office confirms as county standard because no other delegation in county history has braced its cargo and that is why other delegations eat their pie on the shoulder of route 80 — delegation status: van gassed pie crated agenda laminated driver fed and the office has printed a return card that reads DELIVERED OR STILL TRYING which the office will hand the county clerk because the county has never had a slogan that fit on a card before — mayor alex | |
