The Bad Guy
Part 8: The Conference
The next day at work I get a phone call
from the chief telling me that I need to go to a conference. A conference? Cool! I
always wanted to confer with people about stuff. This sounds
official. I'd better wear a suit. I think I'll wear one of
those fancy looking suits with the shiny buttons that go all the way
down. That'll make me look official. I think I'll even wear
a badge that says "DETECTIVE," so that people will know that I'm a
detective.
"Where's the conference going to be at?" I asked in
an inquisitive manner. Yeah, I just used the word
inquisitive. Isn't that impressive?
"The conference will be held in the South Brook
Clovefield Memorial Conference Center. It's just off of
I-90." That's where everything's just off of. Have you ever
noticed that? I mean, nothing ever off of I-16. You never
hear anyone mentioning I-16. I wonder if it even exists.
Yep, just googled it. It's in Georgia.
"Anything I should bring?"
"Just bring something to take notes with. And
don't dress up too much. Just look like a normal person. A
nice shirt and slacks and maybe a tie is all. Don't wear a name
tag unless they give you one."
No name tag? No fancy suit? Will I be
able to survive this conference at all? This really isn't looking
too promising. I had become so excited about this conference and
now it looks like it'll be a drag. But I wasn't going to let that
get me down. Still the fact remained that it was a
conference. Those are official.
Once I arrived at the South Brook Clovefield
Memorial Conference Center, I received my parking ticket and found a
good place to park. Well, it wasn't bad anyway. I mean,
long walks are good for your health, right? So I walked up to the
center, and went inside to take a seat.
The speaker began the conference with some good
jokes about the process of making mustard. Those jokes were
downright hilarious. I laughed so hard... man, I wish I would
have written them down. They were good jokes.
Next, they introduced the president of South Brook
Mustard Mfg. Mr. Don Pretzel was his name, I believe. He
gave an interesting speech about the history of mustard and it's
influence on our culture today, but still one question remained: Why
was I sent to a conference about mustard? I mean, what does
mustard have to do with being a detective? Maybe I should eat
more mustard... or maybe I should wear a mustard colored jacket!
That's it. Mustard colored jackets are so stylish these
days. It's got to be because the chief wants me to dress
hip. Like teenagers do.
The most interesting thing that I saw at the
conference was at the end. They asked Cynthia Walerston to
perform the closing mustard ceremony. Now, this ceremony in
itself was pretty interesting, but it wasn't the ceremony that was the
most interesting thing. No, the most incredibly interesting part
of the ceremony was that...
Shock and suspense! What was
it? Find out in the next
episode of The Bad Guy.
