The unicyclist, still balancing the big blocks and pitcher of water on a broom stick, pointed to Bones with his free hand and said, “How about you, man?” (Bones was only going into the eighth grade, but he really looked man-like.)

Bones looked up, dumbfounded at first, but realized he had just walked into the middle of the act so, of course, he just rolled with it.

The other guy on a unicycle looked at Bones and said with an announcer’s voice, “So glad you brought your phone, dude! Now we can take a picture!” The guy then wheeled by Bones and swiped the phone out of his hand. The audience laughed and cheered.

Bones stood still, looking nervous, as the guy started meddling with his phone. He looked at Bones and said, “Okay, first we’ll need to find your camera and get rid of this flashing blue dot on your screen.”
