Puzzle Description:

When the oxygen finally returned to my brain,I was surprised and dismayed at what I saw. My Camel twisted and bent in a way that did not make it conducive to being lit. I was down to two more in the pack,and being paid with lingerie and opera glasses makes it hard to buy another carton of smokes. Maybe i should consider quitting. The next thing i saw was a bit surprising as well. A beautiful curvacious woman tightly packed in a pair of leather pants with silver studding. I didn't see any women in the bar when I came in,and seeing men dancing and kissing each other made me think that his could possibly be an establishment that catered to gay men. Being a detective,I'm usually better at deciphering these things. Could this be the owner of the bar and her name is Donna? She was holding a black leather handbag,which was strategically draped over her wrist,and hovering over my head. I was hoping she didn't have an anvil in it,and i admit i started saying a prayer,when suddenly i saw the script on the bottom of the purse,in beautiful gold stitching," BARABICHI". " Hi,I'm Francis Donato Barabichi.

Well, well, well. Surprise, surprise. You think? Another great puzzle.

LOL,thx Norma.:)

So, (s)he is indirectly involved in the family business - dealing with fine leather goods. A bar that caters to cross-dressers could be a fine outlet for leather goods - perhaps (s)he is developing new markets. Or are the checks instalment payments on a series of sex change operations?

It would seem that the parents are in for a surprise - they thought they were missing a son.

I wonder if Cans or her sister are patrons of this establishment?

Great minds think alike. (Not need to complete the old saying - the second half doesn't apply here. :-)

Now I'll have that tune in my head all day. Thankfully, I'm a big fan of Chicago.

Sounds like Guy is channeling Wile E Coyote, thinking there might be an anvil about to drop on his head!
