If Cleavage Was Brains
“If cleavage was brains she’d be a genius.”
My main female character (Jess) and her best friend (Margo) are having drinks during happy hour at The Grog in Bryn Mawr.
Jess decides to throw a party. She’s wondering who to invite and the name of Mila Kunis pops up. A small portion of their dialogue goes like this:
“Came to me like a bolt of lightning,” Jess says. “I’ll invite Diane and Jim, and who else?”
“For what?” Margo asks.
“Decided to throw a party.”
“When?” Margo asks.
“Tomorrow, and I’m going to invite Steve.”
“What about Pablo?” Margo asks.
“Of course I’ll invite him.”
“Yeah,” Margo says sarcastically. “That’ll work.”
“Trust me. It will.”
“Since your new man’s going to be a screenwriter,” Margo says flippantly, “you might as well invite Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher, too.”
“Very funny. Why? Are they a couple?”
“Where you been?” Margo says. “Been married for the last few years.”
“No shit. What do you think about her?”
“If cleavage was brains,” Margo says, “she’d be a genius.” They both laugh. “Must be about the pussy because her tits are fake.”
“Yeah,” Margo says. “She’s a mouse and anybody who’s doing Macauley Culkin must have significant self-image problems. He goes hand-in-hand with her implants.”
“Didn’t know about him either.”
“Yeah,” Margo says. “She lived with that dweeb for nine years.”

I’m America’s Best Crime Writer – Barry Bowe – & I approve this message.
My first book – Born to Be Wild – was published in 1992 & is still selling on Amazon & Kindle. It’s a true story about certain members of the Warlocks motorcycle gang.
The story took 21 years to play out – many twists & turns – an amalgam of Sons of Anarchy & Breaking Bad – but these outlaw bikers make the Sons look like Cub Scouts.
