Still, that’s a darn good price for cauliflower pops.

I’d try the smoothie.

Hard to believe none of those took off.

Another failed franchise: Twist Tie Door Locks

Crossroads Chicken Out. Biz went flat.

Where’s the aglet store?

I don’t understand it!

I mean, that Bacon-Cauliflower Smoothie thing should have launched an empire!

Before the Ear Hair franchise it was nose hair.

Remember light bulb stores!

Now, if you join them altogether… Just think of the possibilities!

Bleeb, do not have a Bacon-Cauliflower smoothie. It’s a waste of good bacon.

It’s a stretch but the first business has potential

I once designed a cast iron helicopter – – - – you guessed it!

Ear hair comb overs would have been successful!

I don’t know that I’d want a cauliflower smoothie, but I like cauliflower and came across a Cauliflower/Parmesan soup which is delicious.

Awww! I would shop at the Rubber Bands R US! In fact there’s a paper shop who sells all sizes and I bought 3 different boxes for my needs!

☺️☺️☺️

The first business needs to use a theme jingle by the Spinners.

Darn, I need the Ear Hair Curl place, and now it’s gone.

Now, nose hair perms. Up and coming!

The second one has bacon, therefore success.

Well the clip-n-curl seems to have a satisfied customer.

Ha! I can’t understand why!

The pocket lint business ran out-of-pocket, and the navel lint business went belly-up.

Eyeball Tattoos…You’ll love the way they look.

Calvin always fails his English tests despite having committed one of the most famous scenes from Shakespeare to memory.

Some people DO need rubber bands, the other 2 are iffy.

The rubber band store reminds me of the Scotch Tape Store bit on SNL. (Yes, I know that dates me.)
