That’s Crazy

          windows in the basement. Crazy Leroy, in his paranoia, had glued the

          windows together. I finally realized that was what was all over the
          basement floor. We could not figure out what those strips were when

          I moved back into the house the previous September. Crazy Leroy
          thought someone was going to break into his mansion. The fool did

          not realize he was also glued in.

               I called Leroy since he thought I was crazy anyway and informed

          him Courtney was acting as my power of attorney and he would have

          for  the  business  and  my  portion  owed  on  the  loan  should  be  my

          portion  of  the  settlement.  Courtney  told  crazy,  the  law  does  not

          operate where he has benefited from the good of the business and
          now that the business was defunct, he wanted no parts of the bad.

          When  we  would  settle,  the  profit  would  be  $320,000,  minus  the
