Doc Scully's Dirty Little Secret

     Doc Scully doesn't just sing the blues.  He lives them.  That huge hole in his heart is where Flo-Nan belongs.  No girl ever gave Doc more, expecting less.  Doc expected complaints when there were simply no more rooms near Haight-Ashbury because of all the "Summer of Love" publicity.  Flo-Nan just curled her long, thin frame up in the back of Doc's '59 VW bug.  She laughed when Doc hit his head on the steering wheel trying to lay across the two front bucket seats.  "That steering wheel didn't just get there!" Flo-Nan teased.   "Hey, roll that sunroof back.  I wanna see stars!"
     Funny thing is, with all the love-making around them, Doc and Flo mostly talked.  Mostly. . . . .The Viet Nam War, blacks and whites being together, JFK, RFK and MLK getting shot, the Beatles, the Temptations.  They had seen "Guess Who's Coming To Dinner" together and it made them nervous.  Neither wanted that scene.  Maybe they could go to Tahiti and make a living selling coconuts.  Or maybe Doc's parents in Modesto would approve.  Or Flo's in Arkansas. . . . . .fat chance.
The Doc Scully Blues Band appears at the Crescent Moon Saturdays from 9 pm till 12 am.  The Crescent Moon is located at 722 E. 11th St., Brownsville, TX
