I was rushing through the white-tented terminal building at Denver International Airport when my attention was diverted ? as if often is -- by a storefront massage business. Checking my wristwatch Wholesale Kobe Bryant Shoes UK , I calculated I had just enough time for a 20-minute chair massage.
I settled onto the light gray vinyl chair and placed my face inside the cushioned headrest. The massage therapist introduced himself. "I'm Lee," he said. "But you can call me Sawbones."
He must have seen the cartoon question mark floating above my head in an imaginary white bubble -"Sawbones?"-for he went on to tell me about himself.
Digging his thumbs into the back of my neck, Sawbones explained that massage was a new line of work for him.
"Do you like it?" I asked, my words muffled by the cushioned face rest.
"Yes, ma'am," he said Cheap Kobe Bryant Shoes UK , revealing a slight rancher's drawl. "I get to meet interesting people, especially here at the airport. A few weeks ago, I massaged the lawyer for the Oklahoma City Bomber. He was on his way to his client's execution." Sawbones paused, as if remembering the occasion. "He was a little tense."
Although his comment demanded a sarcastic response, I couldn't think of one fast enough. Instead, I asked Sawbones if he worked only at the airport.
"No Kobe Bryant Shoes UK , ma'am. I also have an office by the Stock Show Complex."
"The Stock Show Complex?"
"Yes, ma'am. That's because I have another business. Custom cowboy hats."
The cartoon question mark re-appeared. "Cowboy hats?"
"Yes, ma'am. I sell them at the Grizzly Rose, the country-western bar north of downtown."
I inhaled the rosemary scent of the massage oil and debated whether to prod Sawbones for more information. Since I was unlikely to meet another cowboy-hat-making-masseur in the near future, I asked him if his massage business was growing.
