A Short Order Something. by John Patrick Robbins

          
He walked into the bar like he owned the joint .
Everyone looked at him as they do in backwoods local dives.

He told the bartender .

"A round for my friends".

"Okay so that's one beer for Jinks".

He slammed it down then turned and left without saying a word or leaving a tip.

He didn't want to stick around and make friends , when one was all he could afford to begin with.

Sometimes being the odd man out has its advantages .

Cheers .
