Like a Toothache!
After getting settled in Idaho, Junie, when asked if she missed L.A., replied, “Yeah, like a bad toothache . . . !”
Swimming Upstream
Jack’s friend Bill was “Blue” and his other friend Bob was “Red”. Trying to get one to listen to the other was kind of like trying to swim upstream in spring runoff . . .
Tough Sledding
Kenny was often puzzled by his girlfriend Ginnie’s literal mind. When he told her that their canoe trip down the Kootenai river that spring was going to be “tough sledding,” her response was, “What happened to the canoes?” and “Do sleds float well enough . . . ?”
Should’a Made a Right . . .
Some time back, LaVerne and his girlfriend Lucille, from Tennessee, thought that since they didn’t have jobs anyway, they should maybe head up to New York and join the “Occupy” crowd. Maybe they would get noticed by the TV guys and get offered a part in one of “Reality” shows. They didn’t have a GPS, and Lucille wasn’t much of a navigator, so they made a left on US Hwy 2 and ended up in Bonners Ferry, Idaho. Somehow, getting to New York or a part in a reality show didn’t seem that important any more . . . . David, Sf.G.
