Suddenly, I recognized her. It was Officer Butz, a mounted policewoman I had seen around the city many times. In fact, just last week, she gave my Mom a parking ticket! And she was ALWAYS hassling my friends in the park who were trying to earn a little money with their music, art, etc., always asking to see their permits, and then usually finding something wrong WITH the permit.
That gave me an idea! I wished she had her clothes back on and that she didn't remember what had happened.
The next day, I was in the park in a top hat and cape. I was performing magic, though everyone who saw me thought I was just doing tricks.
Sure enough, Officer Butz began to come down the path, riding her horse, Sam the Ram.
"Hey, kid, you got a permit to practice magic here?"
"A permit?" I said. "Gosh, do I need one?"
With an irritated sigh, she stopped Sam and dismounted. She began to swagger toward me.
"And now, for my next trick ... " I said to my audience.
