Craigslist ad: Russian submarine for sale in Hobby Airport plywood pool...

CraigsList Christmas shoppers in the Hobby Airport Bath House District were astounded this morning to find their own "Russian connection" in their own neighborhood plywood pool...Already accustomed to tales of the famous Braniff Street attraction such as the perpetual coating of leaves, twigs and empty Corona Extra cans washing down into it from the roof of the mansion adjacent to the pool, residents could hardly believe their eyes when the advertisement appeared this morning in the "Water Toys" category of the popular CraigsList website...Touted as the "perfect accessory for the well-to-do poofter playboy," potential customers began ringing the doorbell of the mansion (which also houses the Braniff Street Piano Roll Museum) before dawn...

The owner, who appeared at the door in his nightshirt but without his nightpants, waved his double-barreled Ballard shotgun wanting to know what the commotion was about...This naturally triggered calls to the Hobby Airport Poofter Police, who responded with trained hostage negotiator, Deputy Dumpy Bunny, who immediately cordoned off the entire block...This prompted a protest from the towel boys just ending their shift at the Hobby Airport Bath House & Poofter Emporium next door to the mansion...Their union representative, identified only as "Lefty," said:

"Hey, we need to get to the Taco Bell across the street for breakfast before these two-for-one coupons we got in our tip jars expire"...

Deputy Dumpy Bunny, a midget lesbian known for her strict interpretations of the law, defused the situation by threatening to initiate a warrant sweep in the bath house, causing the protesting towel boys to withdraw and bolt the door of the popular establishment...The deputy then turned her attention back to the irate mansion owner, whose long-suffering daughter had now appeared at the door...She explained that the ad had probably been placed as a prank by a visiting Apache Junction building inspector, FredK, who became upset when she slammed the door in his face after he began flirting with her...She explained:

"I'm one of the only two straight women that live in this neighborhood, and it's bad enough to get hit on by all the lesbians...Then this old fool starts asking me to come see his model train layout..."

The former beauty queen, who now teaches remedial English at the Hobby Airport Reform School & Juvenile Detention Center, assured Deputy Dumpy Bunny she would call the VA Clinic to get her father's medications adjusted to calm him down, and said not to worry about his shotgun because she had taken the firing pins out many years ago...The deputy then stated she would interrogate FredK herself and collect any evidence and necessary bribes before filing her report...

Shown below is part of a diorama from the realistic Lake Powell section of FredK's model train display in Apache Junction, Arizona...
