Tony the Reporter: #2
As you know, I'm Tony Bushowitz, a reporter with New Loreto News. My job is intruiging to say the least, and I often run into crazy people in this city.
Jean Noriega: Hey, you're watching New Loreto News, I'm Jean Noriega. Now, let's head over to Tony Bushowitz, who has an enthralling story for us... because, well, I'm just the pretty girl who lures in pathetic old men into watching this stuff.
Tony Bushowitz: Thanks, Jean. I'm here at what was the scene of a brutal attack on a 21-year old man, named Reynauld Sampson, here in St. Raphael by an infuriated former friend. The former friend, a Jonas Withers from Peregrine Creek, NL, allegedly injured Sampson when he hit him with a gaming controller.
Sampson's mother, Theresa Samspon: "That slithering little devil will get his due.I cannot believe we live in a world where malevolent sociopaths can get away with attack with such a brutal weapon."
Tony: Mrs. Sampson is now suing Japanese gaming console maker AKIO with a lawsuit accusing the corporation of encouraging violence with the shape of their gaming controllers. Withers' lawyer, however, debunked this accusation.
Withers' Lawyer: "Mr. Sampson was arrested recently for possesion of a substance illegal to the state of New Loreto. Can we really trust a drugged-out junkie in the courtroom?"
Tony: We will report more when the story develops. Back to you, Jean.
Later at Tony's apartment... (which is the modern-ish apartment building right next to the elevated rail)
*Tony's phone rings*
(imagine Tony's parents with a thick Brooklyn-style Jewish accent)
Tony: Hello?
Mother: Tony... it's your mother.
Tony: Oh, hi mom... how are you?
Mother: You didn't call me last morning. What happened?
Tony: Oh, sorry, I was busy...
Mother: I saw you on our news channel here today, I was so excited I almost forgot to nag your father about his spending!
Tony: Yeah, I had a long day.
*Father takes phone from mother*
Father: Hello son.
Tony: Hello, Dad.
Father: Let me tell you Tony, I didn't raise you to ignore your parents like a putz. I raised you to be a dependant on us. But no, you have your own life up there in fancy town.
Tony: Dad, you two didn't have to retire in Shaston City.
Father: Yeah, but this place gives me good memories. Like when me and your mother were at the motel jacuzzi...
Above: The mentioned Motel Sunaker in Shaston City, about 30 years ago. Today, it is known as the Motel Crapolito.
Tony: Yeah, let's just leave it at that.
Father: Okay son, good bye then. Call your mother tomorrow, she's driving me nuts. OH, and find yourself a girl. That latino chick on your news station is a real fine shiksa.
Tony: OKAY FATHER. BYE.
Yes, those were my parents. Daniel and Sherry Bushowitz, who were originally from Brooklyn until moving to the West coast here in San Lorenzo, and then retiring to Shaston City for the warmer climate and gambling. So now you know them... but, you know, don't actually have to MEET them.
___________END OF STORY__________
... this new Simtropolis will take some time to get used to, although it is pretty nice. I'll probably resize my pictures in a future update since they get cut off on the side.
