We are stuck in traffic after leaving the city of Houston. "Darn it!" Jimmy yells. "The one time I'm late for something! To get corn puffs!"

Finally...

"You know what, I can't stand this crap anymore..." Jimmy mumbles as he gets out of the truck. "Jimmy! Wait! For corn puffs!" I yell. "No! I can't wait this long!" He replies. "I heard they have barbecue sauce flavored corn puffs! Jelly bean flavored! COFFEE FLAVORED CORN PUFFS!!!" I yell.

Jimmy swerves around. "Did you say coffee flavored corn puffs?"

"Yes I did." I say.

"Fine. I'll stay. Not for you, the corn puffs."

"Good!"

I see a sign. Miami. 5 miles. Woo-Hoo!

Wee-ooo! Wee-ooo! 🚔

Police!

They pull up and ask a couple questions. Then they ask "Who's driving the vehicle?"

"Jimmy."

The cop points at Rexy. "Are you Jimmy?" "I am Rexasauros Rex, son of R..." Rexy begins.

"You know what, I don't care." The cop says. "Which one of you is Jimmy?" Jimmy raises his hoof. "What's this all about, officer?"

"You were the one driving the van, yes?"

"That's me."

"You want to know what all this is about?"

"Yes."

"No one was driving the vehicle."

Jimmy answers "Aren't we still in traffic?"

The cop looks at the road. "Look ahead of you."

There are no longer any cars in front of us. There are, however, a fair amount of angry cars behind us.

HONK! HONK!

"Go, you idiot!" Someone yells. "I'm going! I'm going!" Jimmy yells back. "Sorry officers. Here. Take this."

The cop reads it. "One free doughnut?! What?"

By the time he looks up, we're already swerving off into a bridge.

"Woo-Hoo!!!" Jimmy yells. "Next stop, Miami!!!"

Authors note:

You know how this book is called 'Benny the radioactive butterfly: book one'? It says 'book one'. That's right. I might do a second one. Maybe even weirder than the first....
