Hanna got into the secret business in elementary school. She was always the Teacher's Pet and Supreme Tattle Tale. She knew everyone's secrets and used that information to advance herself. Today Hanna has fine tuned her operation. She employs several dozen fellow students. They are called her Hush Harvesters. Every day they are given a list of appointments. Here are two examples:
Susan Peer:
4:40 P.M. Lake Park with dog. Walk the dog. Pay close attention to any and everything. If you spot a potential client involved in an misdeed of any kind use your cell phone and snap a photo.
Teddy Truman
6:00 P.M. PiggyMart. Slip the cashier the agreed amount. Hang out waiting for potential clients. Pay close attention to anyone purchasing beer or cigarettes. Get a picture.
Hanna’s army of Hush Harvesters canvas the village and surrounding area on a regular basis. They regard themselves as Cloverdale’s Community Watch with a profitable twist.
Every week Hanna and her staff review the submitted photographs of potential clients to determine if a ‘misdeed’ was committed. If one is found, a letter with a copy of the photo is sent to the person with this note.

Hanna urges the citizens of Cloverdale in the Shire to obey the law. Misdeeds can be costly.
Wow! This woman is scary...I bet she and her troops are extorting $$$$$ this very moment from all the shameless Hollywoodites that attended the Sundunce Film Festival last month.
ReplyDeleteActually,now that I think of it...the Utah Legislature has the same character profile as Hanna: extortionists, opportunists, secretive,trying to litigate adulthood, taxing and penalizing the imperfect smokers and drinkers...shesh
I'll certainly be on the lookout for her and her minions.
