Lunching

Monday, July 28th, 2008

Welcome back!Having satisfied your curiosity about the ad from your dream, and also having checked your other ads and deleted most of them, but also giving in and signing up with a book club that promised to be the ultimate passport to adventure, you finally close your laptop. Glancing at your watch, you see that […]

A new way to advertise?

Monday, July 28th, 2008

What in the world? All of a sudden, all around you, are a bunch of overly enthusiastic clowns, dancing and swaying to blaring music. It feels for all the world like you are at Mardi Gras, but you figure that in actual fact, you must have gone back to the fair. Perhaps you need a […]

So, fresh produce is a GOOD thing, right?

Monday, July 28th, 2008

Arriving back home, and finally getting the door open while struggling with your packages, you bump the door closed behind you and put your new book down on an end table, right next to a fairly large pile of promotional items you picked up at the fair yesterday. Sitting down in your recliner, you slip […]

Looking ahead of where you are walking, you notice that the garbage truck is headed your way.

Sunday, July 13th, 2008

Unable to get the mud off by just wiping at it, you step into the Candy Store and borrow their facilities for a more thorough cleanup. Satisfied that you now look a little more presentable, you leave the bathroom and sit down at the soda fountain. After ordering a strawberry soda, you get into […]

Job Security?

Sunday, July 13th, 2008

As the last of the straggling parade vehicles passes by you, you get splattered a bit as a large flat bed truck goes through a puddle. Looking at it, you recognize it as the float that was sponsored by the most prominent local dentist, partnered with medigap. The people on the float had been throwing […]

Rerunning the Parade

Sunday, July 13th, 2008

Slowing down a bit, you see that the parade is breaking up, the various floats and trucks returning to their usual places of rest. The truck that was advertising the cafe’s delicious Boston Baked Beans moves slowly by you, and you notice that the paper sign picturing and naming that product has been half ripped […]
