Focus

Slaughterhouse
Focus was that pesky little magazine, whose editor decided to fill its cover for weeks with actor Peter Thompson’s private life. So, Peter hated everyone there, including the janitor. He didn’t know the man, but that was beside the point.
When Peter marched into the building, determined to end the charade, the janitor, a veteran, saw him.
“Man, look at me,” he said, noticing the gun, “look. Stay focused.”
A catastrophe ensued…
The following week, Focus featured the story.
“Guard, can I have Focus to read? I want to make sure I’m not on the cover again.”
Well… he was.
