Sari, you have inspired me: El Dupree heaved his holy massivity across the plains of blazingly hot concrete and parked cars. His delicate sense of smell -- whose existance in defiance of Dupree's proclivity for cigars in itself a indisputable indication of his holiness -- had been detecting the incredibly-unsubtle odors of nearly-inedible mexican food for days now. And they led him here, to this strange place. Wandering the desert for months, he'd only had the odd gila monster to eat, and his stomach was making noises which caused passing parents to tug their children closer to their sides. Eagerly anticipating the meal, he nearly yanked the smoked glass door from its hinges as he stepped into the mall. His head began to swim as the cold air rushed around him. But that disorientation was insignificant compared to what his eyes told him as they adjusted to the unnatural light. "Santa Maria," he burped. He looked in his pants to check his supply of headsacks. He would have to contact the manufacturer about volume discounts, and return another day. El Dupree dramatically turned on a pudgy heel, and reaching into his pocket for the butt of a old cigar, casually smacked someone handing out religious paraphenalia. As he lit the butt, he said, "I dont neeeeed no stinking paper," and fitted the person with a #42 headsack. "Perhaps a #42 was a bit large for that person," thought, "But his head looked a bit swollen."
