    Emily Post she isn’., While you are at it, arrange the chairs in a circle, that’s always a good move.How many people are coming to dinner? They must be new residents, the rest of Crustwood knows not to eat there. Lets see the menu:Stuffers Lasagna (it was marked out of date so she got it at 20% off,)Canned Green Beans, Acme brand, bought at the Dollar DumpDay old french bread, its kinda hard but it will be alright with enough oleo, Dollar Dumps own brandand finally an assortment of Ding Dongs, Ho Ho’s and brownies from the Grocery Outlet. The brownie package was kinda dusty so it was marked down to 99 cents.Yum!

    The Pennys must be hosting Thanksgiving. They’ll imply it’s a Butterball but really it will be from Crustwood Coop’s outlet shed. “We Remove the Diseased Parts.”

    With a closet full of presents I thought they must be having the Shemps, Verla and Jerry over for Christmas dinner.

    The presents take up the whole closet because their childish grains still interpret “bigger” as “better”…so they buy big plastic lawn ornaments, cheap posters and games…anything they can wrap up to look like a lot.

    Burl’s brain is SO childish he can’t get that all those presents will be OUT of the closet by then, and under the tree….and he doesn’t get to KEEP them all.

    Joy will have to console him later when all the stuff is gone…maybe by getting him to play with the similar junk the others gave HIM.

    If they brought smaller things, though, he will think he isn’t loved…and Joy will have to give him hot chocolate and cookies.

    Ugh, I wouldn’t want to put my coat over one of their over stuffed chairs, overstuffed with greasy hand prints and crumbs. Of course about now I would be calling in with flu symptoms, which would be honest just thinking about eating over there.

    The coats would probably absorb all the B.O. like that Seinfeld episode where (it was assumed) the valet handling Jer’s car left a stench of really wicked B.O. that lingered and even multiple visits to an auto detailer didn’t get the smell out….imagine taking that home in, on and around your coat and it gets inside your house and just sort of takes up residence………..
