If it doesn't work on the stove, you can take up art. I always feel

I always had this image of you riding your bike with painted toenails.
I'm crushed now.

You'll never know. I may skip the helmet sometime but I'll be damned if
I'll ride a bike in flip flops. That's a 20-something deal. 150 hp bike,
$800 helmet with the trendy graphics, and flip flops.

After I park the bike and walk into Joanne's in my scruffy leather
jacket, the conversation can get interesting.

Do you have one of those snap fastener kits?
Sure, what do you want to use them for?
Fix the thumb break on my .357 shoulder rig.

I learned long ago to make up some story about my non-existent wife
working on some non-existent home project.

Of course, I sometimes have the same problem in the hardware store. I'm
