Some kids collect stamps,
some kids collect rocks.  

Little Bones—
well he collects
crazy clients.  

He was never offered
any choice
as to a suitable hobby.

Nice to hear more about Bones.
There are a whole lot of people out there who don't get many choices.
There may be more people on the underside of life than there are on the up-side.
They survive by their wits any way they can.
Later Bob.

Bones is not offered a fair shake it is true but how many of his problems are due to his own wrong choices.

Ah, Bobby, I perceive that Bones is a collector of other things as well, such as an ace or two up the sleeve; he knows how to be ready for client or foe when the occasion presents itself.

Thanks Art,

What you say is true.  Bones has always been good with a deck of cards.  There was a time when he supported himself by playing poker.  Bones never had to stoop to cheating either.
