Lenny's Back

Miles loved the iPhone, but what he really needed was a MacBook Pro or better yet, an iPad. Plus, the iPhone would surely be cut off in a matter of days, and Miles feared for his sanity. Shut off from the world, stuck in the outskirts of Sandpoint Idaho with Harold the headless ghost.

Miles had enough money left in his Paypal account to establish an account with an Internet provider. When Miles sailed across the ocean, he had planned on reporting on the cat rodeo, which would have earned him enough money to get back home. Unfortunately, when Miles arrived in Montana, his cousin, Buck, had been devoured by the famous, and treacherous, rodeo cat, Little Jamie. Devastated, Miles left Montana, and after catching a truck ride, ended up in Sandpoint, Idaho, where he was stranded.
Miles needed more money, and if he had an Internet connection and a computer, he could find work writing, and earn money in his PayPal account. He Googled dish networks in Sandpoint, and when he found a company called 7B, he started sending them text messages.

Someone named Lenny Hess responded. Miles texted Lenny his address, and Lenny texted back, “Is that you, Harold? I thought you were in Hawaii with Lilith.”

Excited, Miles texted back, “You know Harold?”

Lenny replied, “You’re such a prankster, Harold. I thought maybe that wife of yours had killed you and tried to run off with your money. Course, your dad fixed it so she wouldn’t get a cent.”

Miles replied, “LOL.”

Miles made arrangements for Lenny himself to come out and install a dish that would provide him with the high speed Internet he required. In addition, Miles did some research via the iPhone and discovered that the world thought Harold was still alive.

“Harold,” Miles squeaked. “I need to talk to you about our finances.”
