Did I See One Of You Guys Yesterday?


Was in the local post office yesterday, and saw a guy with grey
hair, glue shirt, blue Jeans, with some of thos yardstick suspenders.
Seeing the suspenders made me wonder if the guy was/is a woodworker, and
if he ever came here if he is. I'd been thinking of gettig a pair of
thos mearing suspenders. Until I sawa par actally wornd by a person,
never saw that fore. The thing that immediately popped into my mind
when I saw them changed my mind tho - all I could think of was the guy
looked lie he was prepared t measure smething - and if he found it he
would have to drop his pants to measure it. I now stick with my black
suspendrs ajust hope no one ever buys me a pair of those measuring
susends. i can't get that thought ut of my mind. Arrrgggghhhh!!!

You better step away from that table saw. How many beers did you have
before you typed this?

I don't drink, but keys on my keyboard stick at times. Ive been
told often enough by people here that I should know what they meant, so
I decided the Hell with t, and now don't bother checking spelling - just
like every one else here apparently.

If you're one ofthe too tight people, the crrectd version would be.
"Until I saw a pair actually worn by a person, never saw that before."

I didn't want to say where, just in case one of you guys wanted to
drop by. But I live about 10-15 miles east of Raleigh, between Garner
and Smithfield. That narrow it down enough?
