Memo

To: The fan fic writers

From: Firefighter Marco Lopez

Date: November 6, 1998

As dictated to Tangee Taylor

I would like it brought to the attention of every fan fic writer that I, Marco Lopez, feel as though I have been overlooked one time too many. I see your work, I see Johnny get zapped, hit by cars, gunned down, ceilings falling on him and strange illnesses. I see Roy constantly blaming himself for one thing or another, his wife ill, his kids with broken arms. Cap and his family have had fires, heart attacks, car accidents, etc. Mike Stoker crashing the rig, losing the rig, eating brownies, yadda yadda and Chet has had everything from a tumor in his head to getting trapped in a building.

What has happened to me? good ole Marco?

I stood on the apron of the station in my boxers aiming a hose across the street. I ask you, people, what about me? Aren't I cute? Don't I have what it takes to be a main character?

Everytime I read a story I have to see someone say, "Sit down and have some of Marco's chili". Well people, I am here to tell you I am tired of making that damn chili. Quite frankly it gives you all gas and it's getting quite toxic around here these days.

If I have to grab one more inch and a half, hose line, ladder or disconnect a battery I'm going to scream. Just once I'd like to get the girl, be the hero, have the parties or lead the parades. What's wrong with me? I'm a good guy.

I want you people to know that I can cook more then chili, I can say more then one line without messing it up, I don't talk with my mouth full or blame myself for everything... well okay, it was my fault that the tire blew off the squad during a run, but other then that, I'm a pretty good guy, don't you think?

I have an apartment, and a car, and a phone and parents and a girlfriend and well..... a life. Please include me in more of your fiction. I am a deserving guy.

Yours forever in fic world,

Marco Lopez
