The Big Karnowski
Working on a new script. Derivative I know. But what the hell. Here's the prologue.
The Stranger: [voiceover] Way out west there was this fella... fella I wanna tell ya about. Fella by the name of Prezemek Karnowski. At least that was the handle his loving parents gave him, but he never had much use for it himself. Mr. Karnowski, he called himself "Shem". Now, "Shem" - that's a name no one would self-apply where I come from. But then there was a lot about Shem that didn't make a whole lot of sense. And a lot about where he lived, likewise. But then again, maybe that's why I found the place so darned interestin'. They call Spoe-cane the "Lilac City." I didn't find it to be that, exactly. But I'll allow there are some nice folks there. 'Course I can't say I've seen London, and I ain't never been to France. And I ain't never seen no queen in her damned undies, so the feller says. But I'll tell you what - after seeing Spoe-cane, and this here story I'm about to unfold, well, I guess I seen somethin' every bit as stupefyin' as you'd see in any of them other places. And in English, too. So I can die with a smile on my face, without feelin' like the good Lord gypped me. Now this here story I'm about to unfold took place back in 2017 - just about the time of our conflict with Kim Jong Un and the Norks. I only mention it because sometimes there's a man... I won't say a hero, 'cause, what's a hero? But sometimes, there's a man. And I'm talkin' about Shem here. Sometimes, there's a man, well, he's the man for his time and place. He fits right in there. And that's Shem, at Gonzaga. And even if he's a big man - and Shem was most certainly that. Quite possibly the biggest in Spoe-Cane County, which would place him high in the runnin' for biggest worldwide. But sometimes there's a man, sometimes, there's a man. Aw. I lost my train of thought here. But... aw, hell. I've done introduced him enough.
