Also seen are" I'll be backs" wish i had a nickle for each one of

and "nice work" as they leave the booth
and "nice work but i'm downsizeing" after handling everything and
having just left a hand cream booth next door.
It's fall again, at least up north, and the birds are heading south.
Here's a few I
spotted around the craft shows this week:
********************************************
The -Dull witted Nincompoop- chirping
" boy I must be a millionaire with all that junk in my attic back home
same as you are trying to sell here".
The -Self Righteous Blame the Artist- squeaking "For heaven's sake why
would a turner desecrate nature's wood with satan's paints and
decorations?"
The -The know Nothing stupid Husband_ braying "That's easy to do, I'll
make one for you next week when I get the time".
The -Unsupervised Fledglings- Running around with your best thin walled
HF.
The -Distracted Momma Bird- "Now you kids put that vase down....please"
The -Red necked pograde- " My velvet pictures and pink flamingos are
purtier than that there pink ivory and ebony useless stuff".
The -Time Consuming Sales Loser" I love to talk about woodturning so
I'll just sit down with you and light up a cigar".
The -Clumsy Coffee and Mustard Spiller-
Leaving a trail of greasy "excuse me's" in every booth of the show.
The -Boring Non Buyer- Droning on and on about the lathe "I used in
high school shop" while all the customers leave.
The -obnoxious Butt-in Lout- Smiling a "Pardon me for butting in, but
you can buy that same bowl cheaper at Target".
***************************************
Musing if some of you have spotted any early snowbirds this week.
