Scary Gary by Mark Buford for August 03, 2019

Can even Mom help?

Talk to the hand that isn’t there, Leo!

You’ll pay for that, Owen. In some nefarious way. How do you hurt a ghost anyway?

Not a ghost of a chance Owen will talk to Leopold about his problems…but Leopold has other ideas on this matter…..

I was standing in a line at a fast food place, getting something quick while driving long distance. Some jerk (didn’t label him as such immediately) came up behind me in the ordering line and said, “Hey. How long have you been waiting here?” I turned around and said, “just about two minutes…” and was about to say more when I saw he was talking to a bluetooth earpiece. I frowned at him, placed my order and when to fill my drink cup. The jerk kept talking into his earpiece, at normal conversation volume. After I got my meal and settled in starting to eat, I saw the jerk went over and joined another guy at another table. The jerk had been talking to the other guy on his phone, while not 15 to 20 feet away from him.

Why is this not considered socially rude and abhorrent public behavior?

As my dad used to say, “The telephone is not a toy!”

A seance phone….

I hope mom doesn’t ghost Owen.

Ghosts using phones? Who pays for it?

The ghost in the Blue Tooth (or vice versa). Sorry, Leopold, but you are superfluous today.
