Chapter 1: The Open Road

There's a stretch along the Pacific Coast Highway (PCH) that I eagerly anticipate, nestled between the free-spirited vibe of San Francisco and the ostentatious allure of Los Angeles. As the road twists and turns, I relish the opportunity to press the accelerator and enjoy the throaty roar of my engine. Today, I’m cruising in my 1971 Mercedes-Benz SL with the top down. The warm September sun bathes everything in golden light, and my leather gloves dance over the steering wheel as “Aqualung” blasts from the speakers. It’s a splendid day to be this UglyWeiner.

As I made my way out of the office this morning, my secretary called after me, “Mr. UglyWeiner! Mr. UglyWeiner!” I couldn’t resist a cheeky reply: “Call me that; it’s my father’s name!” I continued on without breaking my stride, though she will certainly face the music later. I can be tough on my employees, but that’s mild compared to navigating a business negotiation.

“Don’t mess with that UglyWeiner,” they say after facing off with me in the boardroom. Am I a shark? Lost in my metaphors again. The true plight of the UglyWeiners: our vivid imaginations.

Despite some construction ahead, nothing can spoil my mood. The lingering high from a few discreet tokes adds to my joy. With a mix of euphoria and bliss, I feel like melted cheese on a Philadelphia Smash burger, dripping and carefree. “Excuse me while I kiss this guy,” I murmur to myself, channeling the legendary Jimi Hendrix. My hand instinctively reaches out of the window, finding a sublime balance with the wind, moving through the air as effortlessly as my tires glide over the PCH.

Yet, it hasn’t always been sunshine and classic rock for me. There were dark days too. The relentless bullies from my private school always found new ways to mock my unfortunate surname. “Bombas Thomas!” they would chant, their clever cruelty biting deep. But now, those same voices tremble at the mere mention of UglyWeiner and the wrath that follows. I remember my brother, Amos UglyWeiner, and I, terrified of the dark after our mother tucked us in tight. Just two UglyWeiners, trembling under our blankets until daylight broke. “Good morning, UglyWeiners!” our housekeeper, Debbie Maggots, would shout, as we emerged into the safety of the sun, ready to embrace a new day.

I’m climbing now, my car gracefully navigating the curves of the majestic PCH like a mountain lion. The steep drops on either side of the highway only add to the thrill as my classic vehicle ascends effortlessly, an UglyWeiner mobile poised to soar and leave its mark on the skyline of San Jose.

As I pull into the parking lot of “UglyWeiner’s Ouija Board Emporium,” passing statues of the legendary UglyWeiners who paved the way before me, my mind is clear. My moment of meditation has been carried away by the wind.
