Charlie Danger




Charlie "Danger " Young

Charlie was a sing ching bing Chinese guy
That I worked with
When I waitressed in a Szechuan restaurant
For 5 years.

He was our appetizer chef.
He had a range.

Charlie heated up the cast iron
Plates for the sizzling rice dishes.

He wore army boots and
Spit into a bucket next to his stove

"Danger!
Hot plate!"

"Look out
It bourn you
You know?"

Charlie also fried the dumplings.
20 minutes they took.

If you forgot to order them
You were in trouble.

Saturday night

"Charlie are my dumplings ready?"

"Don't aska."

"Um, but my customer wants to know."

"DON"T ASKA! I KILL YOU!"

"Um,"

WHAM!
Army boot in the shin.

Don't aska.

Charlie Danger.
