My Trifextra Week Thirty-Three Contribution. Recently saw that an old friend was selling his guitar. I read between the line...

Here was the challenge.

The Rule of Three is a writing principle that asserts that, in writing, groups of three have the most impact. This week's challenge is to write 33 words using the Rule of Three somewhere among them.  It is up to you to interpret the rule, just make sure to use exactly 33 words.

This weekend's challenge is community-judged.
