Today’s classic A&J is from two years ago this month. I told you a few weeks back that we’d be discussing t-shirts. Today, at a little shop in the boonies of Mississippi, dedicated craftsmen will be running off a batch of trial tees, as we hone products that will be available here soon. I am working closely with the screen printers to produce a good-looking high-quality shirt that you’ll be proud to own. Or give. This will not be one of those “anything you want printed on whatever you want it printed on” kind of deals that are ubiquitous on the Web these days. This will be a selection, small at first, of T-shirts produced by local printers and me, and available here only. As we go forward, I’ll formally introduce you to those involved and give you a better idea of exactly what we’re up to.

And I am supposed to wait for the tee shirts to be ready?
ARRGGHHH!!
I like where this is going…..I’m in!
Instead of using S-M-L-XL etc.
How about something relevant – “suitable for a a person 4 1/2 cubits tall
3 ax handles wide with a neck like a 5qt ice cream pail”?
“As tall as the kitchen counter as big around as a mop handle”
or like Boney Maroney (SP?)
Something we can all relate to.

Feel like I am waiting for Christmas, going to bed at night dreaming of tees to come.
So now we are getting excited over the tees tease by our humble artist. Considering the subject matter, is this a strip tees tease?
Now that the lights are back on, the request was made:
“There is a kilt joke where the punch line is “All in good working order” and that is all I can remember of it. If anyone else can I remember the joke, please post it here.”
The joke is that a Scotsman is asked “What is worn under your kilt?” by a curious, if somewhat rude, damsel. “Why therrre’s nothing worrrn under mah kilt, lassie,” he responds, “it’s all in perrrfect worrrking orrrder.”
That’s the joke Evan! Do you think we scared off Ghost with the offers of kilt in a can? Or can in a kilt?
“Considering the subject matter, is this a strip tees tease?” Well played, Mark, well played.
There was an answer to a law school exam concerning a lawsuit against a Mr. Chance. There was a tricky question of law that had to be submitted to the appellate court, and the student was required to predict who would win upon appeal. He summarized thusly:
“Chances are our chances are better than Chance’s are.”

Go ahead, anonymous – rend them there bodices!
Good one, Evan.
Anonymous, or a can-can in a kilt?
Good morning Villagers…..
So glad the door is open again. It’s good to be back in the Village…
Emb, I am getting so caught up in this morning stargazing that I drew a diagram of the stars’ alignment for my apprentice at work. He is going hunting Saturday morning. He likes looking up at the sky too.
Jackie, are you going to go see your Aunt in Terre Haute while traveling Illinois?
And I am really concerned about GR, no posts from him since he said he needed a cape. Can’t help but wonder if he did a Wiley Coyote with his cape from a cliff edge. No seriously, I do pray no harm has come his way, or his Mother.
Ruth Anne, and how are the mountains?
Indy Mindy, there is nothing quite like playing with a child to bring out the child in us.
I got my apology from Dakota (after The Boss told him you never talk to a woman like that, and you never talk to your supervisor like that). Dakota came back to the hen house, and walked into the packing room. He put his arm around me and said “Debbe, I am sorry I cussed you out the other day”. I told him apology accepted. He even apologized in from of another teen worker!
Here’s praying we hear from Ghost today.
Ya’ll have a blessed day
Cheep, cheep

Steve, how often do trains run the tracks next to your house? Any during the night? And good luck on the selling and the neighbor. I think you can cross off your prospect list the guy with the concealed weapon though.
Signed and numbered?
Debbe:
It is a double track so there are plenty of trains. Most of the year you do not hear them as the windows are closed. Amtrack runs on a regular schedule and in the spring or fall when the windows are open, the 6:00 AM train (actually 5:55) will wake me up as the alarm goes off at 6:00. But it is a dead end street with a lot 3X the size of others in Royal Oak so it is very quiet otherwise with a lot of privacy.
BTW, when I move, I’ll still be Steve from Royal Oak as I have lived here 19 years and I’ll be in a neighboring community. I lived in another house in Royal Oak for 4-5 years so it will be 25 years total. Never lived in a town that long.
Steve, we had a problem with a neighbor’s dog when we lived in another county. If there is a leash law in your area they can be fined. Our problem stopped when they grew tired of the $500 fines. Does anyone know if that was the space station by the moon this morning? It was really something and it was the only light in the sky other than the moon. Amazon has two copies of Bop Til You Drop for sale by two different venders. One copy in “good” condition is just under $1000 and another copy is “very good” and is listed at just under two thousand. JJ, I have a suggestion. Run off a couple thousand copies and let them go for $500 each. Then you can retire a millionaire. (Free t-shirt with each book!)
if anyone wants to buy my copy of Bop Till you Drop for $1000 let me know…..I’ll throw in free delivery.
