Fairhill's own Mr. Fix-it

Clyde Peterson claims he can fix anything. His current project involves fastening his bed to the ceiling using hanging chains. He plans on purchasing a brand new 3M brand massage chair in addition to the two less-than-par ones he has now. He's getting a brand new black aluminum bedroom set, too. His wish list is piled on his coffee table, clippings from a magazine. It's Peterson's son, T.J.'s twentieth birthday this Monday. He wants one hundred dollars to pay his phone bill and get him to and from work for the next few weeks. Peterson wants to make his son a shirt set--a jack of all trades, he's also the owner of "Clyde's Crazy Tee Shop" which he runs out of his home on 5th street. He screen prints t-shirts with less-than-perfect representations of Sponge Bobs, Dora the Explorers and Family Guy Stewies. The "crazy" part is the vibrant paint splattered every which way and all over the shirts. His creations are wholly him. When he talks, he does not sit still. He goes from one story to another, one thought to the next with no transition. He's everywhere at once and he wants everything. He wants to change his last name to "Power" and his middle to "Money." Clyde Money Power, we know there's something you want out there that you can't buy. That's why you keep that gorgeous evening dress in its dry-cleaning wrapper in your bedroom closet. You want someone to wear that dress. You want someone to share your enthusiasm for that bedroom set. We bet you'd trade all three of your massage chairs in for the real thing.
