Jerry Hart's Sixth Sense
An uneasy feeling had made Jerry Hart miserable all day long.
It's hard to explain--the similar sensations in past had been
accurate--trouble was on the way. Just as some people can predict
the onset of inclement weather because of the aching in their bones, 
so could Jerry Hart detect disaster. He sat in his desk, trying to 
peruse a company report, but his efforts were ineffectual. The gnawing
at his insides, the tinge of uneasiness, and the premonition of calamity
which besieged him would not desist. When the phone rang, he recoiled 
with fears. It was his wife and she was hysterical, their son had been
bitten by a mad dog.

To pay the piper--The cruel leader was doing well at the present time
, but he knew that one day he might have to pay the piper.
