Garry, let me lock up all those dirty, nasty people who don't like your jokes in my cave. They won't like it much, lots of spiders and snakes, dark and musty. I could torture them for a while too if you want. I have VooDoo powers....hehehe! I'll rattle my magic bones and read their fortunes. If they have any. Send those humorless people to me. I show them what life is like without humor. I love your jokes. They make my day!

Here's something that happened at my store this weekend. A young couple came in and looked around the store. It's a very small building, only about 15' x 20'. There are three of them in a row separated by about 1/4 acre each. Called doll houses once upon a time. Used to be summer cottages but now mine (in the middle) is a store, the other's are year round residences. Anyway, I have 1/2 priced used books and lots of toys, and souvenirs. A lot of stuff, stuffed into a small place.

The couple looked around and saw that I had playing cards with the South East Lighthouse on the backs. That is one of the most famous landmarks on my island. They are also imprinted with "Block Island". They're expensive and mostly for collectors. $7.50 per pack. Well, the young man said that they had looked all over and eventually bought "generic" cards elsewhere but really wanted the SE Light cards. After his lady left the building, he reached around into his pack and said that he paid about $5 for the "generic" cards and would I trade the "generic" cards for the SE Light cards and he'd pay the difference. I told him no, I couldn't do that. He said "Oh, is that against the law?" I said no but I wouldn't be able to sell the other cards. I told him to take the other cards back to the store where he got them and ask for his money back. He decided that was too much trouble and left. As he went out the door I had to laugh. What nerve!!!

I also know that regular bycycle cards on the island run about $3.75 per pack so.......this is true...can you make it into an Al and Angel story? How abought, I bought a dress at Penny's and decided I liked an other one at Sears and asked Sears to take the one I bought at Penny's in trade.

Daddy, Garry and Hraka all ran into each other at the local bar. As they were reaching for their drinks, Daddy noted out loud that Hraka's hands were awfully tiny. Hraka replied "I'll bet I have the smallest hands in the world. Nobody has smaller hands than me."

With this, Garry removed his shoe (phew!) and exclaimed "look at that foot! I have the smallest feet in the world. There are Chinese princesses who envy me."

Daddy, not to be outdone, said simply "I have the smallest p**** in the world."

Well, they started discussing who was the greatest of the smallest and, after about a half an hour, the discussion became quite heated. Finally, the bartender stepped in and said "Look you guys, there's a branch of the Guiness Book of Records about two blocks from here. Why don't you all go over there and get checked out and we'll see who's got bragging rights?" With that, all three marched out of the bar.

In an hour or so, Hraka came strolling through the door with a big grin on his face and said "The drinks are on me. I'm on page 32 of the Guiness Book of World Records. It's been verified that I have the smallest hands in the world." Congratulations were being passed around when Garry came through the door and proclaimed "Doubles for everyone! I'm on page 4, smallest feet in the world."

The excitement had just about subsided when Daddy blew the door open, stomped across the floor and slouched onto his barstool, mumbling to himself. "What's the matter," said the bartender, "didn't your 'you know what' qualify for a record?"

"No," snarled Daddy, "and I'd like to know just who the heck this Al guy is, anyway."

Tee Hee Heee!!!
