Frankie,
a rough looking miner with worn out coveralls, comes running into a
small camp scared out of his mind. The small mining camp is occupied
by Billy Bob and Herb, two nearly identical miners distinguished only
by the color of their hair (Billy Bob has red, Herb has blond). The
identical miners are startled at the intrusion of the shrieking man.

The
Great Alaskan Pickaxe sits atop a muscular mule listening to the
wind. He has a large brown beard and stocking cap. He wears a red and
black flannel shirt that is bursting with muscles. Sticking above his
shoulder is shining pickaxe.

Hahaha. Funny. I think I forgot that this is supposed to take place in Alaska. Mine's sorta random.
ReplyDelete"Really ol' Louie" is one of the best character names I've ever read. Love the silliness you throw out here and would be happy to read more.
