The writer recounts a day in the life of a member of the stronger sex. The main character is Rory Honiman. In the late 1970s, he opened his own establishment, which he gave the name Honiman’s Braves.

On that sunny day, he wore a baseball cap, sneakers, jeans, and a sweatshirt that advertised the brand he founded. Despite his rather advanced years, Rory had a slender physique. According to the author, the good figure was due to the fact that he watched his diet and had fairly good genes in his body. Mr. Honeyman had stopped exercising, although decades earlier he had been known to the general public as an excellent diver.

After strolling through the streets of the small town of Hoboken, which was located in the state of New Jersey, the protagonist came to the door of his diner. For one minute he tried to get inside the premises, but he failed. The man blamed his Nerfball employee for the situation and then left.
