      FULLY LOADED - Mike Dennis

      FULLY LOADED

      THE rain finally stopped. It was the middle of the afternoon, nearly three, and it had been coming down since nine this morning.

      Thank God for small favors, Sherry thought. At least there were a few hours left to try to make some money.

      Because nobody, but nobody, went shopping for a used car in the pouring rain.

Nothing made a vehicle look better than that. Dings and dents always faded away under the silvery droplets, as did any evidence of body work, and even the back line cars looked good.

      She looked down at the ashtray in front of her. Her cigarette burned itself out. She thought about lighting another one.

      Quitting smoking would save her around two hundred a month. These days, she needed every penny she could lay her hands on.

Even people from upstate were selling their long-cherished vacation homes down here at bargain prices. That worn-at-the-heels look had set in like grape juice on white linen, and the Coast was now a faded remnant of its earlier, swinging self.

      Because of all this, not much money
