Oh my goodness… I’m so late getting here!And I missed so much last night!
First off…. Thad looks so happy!
I’m glad his new hobby is a success….He was so sad after he couldn’t put together those intricate watermelon seed and horsehair puzzle rings he sent for.
Then he couldn’t keep up in Mongolian square dancing class at the Y, and the lutefisk butterflies he tried to carve all crumbled…
For thinking,he needs no fancy tools, special shoes or nose plugs…just the equipment with which he was born…and if it’s not good enough…well, he can just keep his thoughts to himself!
Meanwhile…. Stel!! THANK YOU!!!I’m honored to have a flower named after me.I hope they behave themselves and do me proud.If any are discipline problems let me know and I’ll come have a talk with them.
Linguist…. I am SO sorry, but I just saw your order… I will be very happy to fill it ASAP and drop it at your Ballard St residence tomorrow, as I’ve already inconvenienced you too much to ask you to pick it up. I do hope you will find that satisfactory.As a further gesture of apology, I will give you not only my usual 7.3% case discount, but a 2.7% customer appreciation discount off the original, undiscounted price… ….and NO delivery charge (of course!)
Lets see…. 24 × 11.62 = 278.88hmm…. 278.88 – 7.3% = 258.52AND minus another 2.7%, which is $7.52… (how convenient!) is only $251.
What the heck, make it an even $250…
Cash, check, credit or gold doubloons….but… oh my goodness… gold is so high I believe that’s less than a doubloon and I’m out of reales for change. Sorry.
You will, however, love the mousse, unless you are accustomed to impaling anything firmer than marshmallows or cheese on the points of your moustache. Mousse is a bit softer than wax… but it does make your facial hair more touchable and less alarming to the ladies.
Please do let me know whether anything I’ve said is unacceptable..and thank you!
Meanwhile…. the salon has been closing early on Wednesday afternoons, as I’ve been working at a farmer’s market near my home in Santa Rosa … a long bus trip from Ballard St…. every Wednesday evening since May.
Tonight was the last one for this year, however…. sigh…
So…. Bev, Stel….I’ve brought extra tomatoes… some bell peppers…lovely figs… sweet grapes…all in the salon kitchen…bring a basket!
We’ll have some of my own tomatoes soon… but not in this quantity.Enjoy!
I don’t think anymore. I once was a big thinker. Always thinking big thoughts. One day I got carried away and blew up my house. Now I don’t think so much.
@SusanSunshine – I am fairly new to this comic. I am loving your Ballard Street escapades. What an imagination you have. You should write a book! Thanks for the laughs.
Je pense, donc je suis : Creo, por lo tanto, estoy. ; PENSO, dunque sono. ; Ich denke, also bin ich. ; Ik denk dus ben I. ; and finally : Πιστεύω, ως εκ τούτου, είμαι.But the real questions are: What am I thinking ? {and} Who am I ?
BTW, fortunately for Thad, he lives on Ballard St., where on any given day, there are meetings of groups, societies, clubs, associations and organizations for every hobby, interest or cause imaginable.
The Ballard Thinking Cappers meet every Thursday from 6:30 pm – 9:30 pm at the snack and lounge area in the Ballard Community Center.
I’m certain you’ll be pleased, but if not, remember that all my products are 100% guaranteed…well, except that a few unstable haircolors cannot be guaranteed against future change…and no colors or permanents are guaranteed against growing out….Did you read that last line Mabel Chesney?I’m talking to YOU.But I’ll be happy to give you a coupon for an 11.42% discount on your next perm…. just for being such a good customer.

Yes, thinking is good, just be careful not to think too much. Since when did thought and politics go together?

pcolli — I believe StelBel can order you a straw of any length…but if not, there’s plenty of duct tape available for joining shorter ones together.

When I works, I works hard.When I sits, I sits loose.And when I thinks, I falls asleep (as does Thad, apparently).
