It was another exciting day at the Dime Store. I do my best to keep my customers informed--ok no laughing now--and one way is to buy them newspapers from many different parts of the country. In a straight from Kelsey's Woods department, the following comes from a paper which was running articles about funny things candidates have actually said while explaining to the editorial boards why they should endorse them: "A guy we'll call Mr. X was running for city council. He came to the editorial board in his sap-streaked coveralls having just come in from the woods where he was cooking down maple syrup. When asked why he wanted to sit on city council, he launched into this long explanation about how his rural property had been annexed 15 years ago and he didn't want any part of it. We said, 'Yeah, but Mr. X, if you're elected to city council, you can't un-annex your land.' He said, 'You can't?' Well, then I don't want on there. I haven't got time for all them meetings anyhow.' He went back to the woods where we assume he's still cookin' the sap." Can't you just see somebody like Ernest T. Bass doing something like that? Laura Lee Hobbs, Dime Store Clerk, Gold Truck Watcher and Occasional Sap cooker myself "Ernest T., you aren't stupid. You're just ignorant." "You're just being kind." ________________________________________________________________________ Check out the new AOL.
