Good morning crew,

I just received an invitation in the mail. One of my nephews is graduating high school and his parents are throwing a party for him in June.

Party season is starting up again. Graduations, weddings, first communions, bar mitzvahs and Lord knows what else. That means a lot of gifts and a lot of cards.

I am notoriously bad at that kind of preparation, so I decided to get a jump on the whole affair by getting our 80-piece Greeting Card and Wrapping Collection. You get a collection of 20 assorted greeting cards, gift wrapping paper, gift bags, tissue paper, bows and pretty much everything else you could need for gift-giving (short of the gift, of course).

And the whole thing costs ten bucks. Think about it... 20 greeting cards alone would cost you at least $40 at the store. Not to mention everything else.

Get one of these kits and keep it handy. I promise you will need it at some point this year.

To see a complete list of what's included just click on the link here!

Laugh it up,

One of my customers at the department of motor vehicles wanted a personalized license plate with his wedding anniversary on it. As we completed the paperwork he explained, "This way I can't forget the date."

A few hours later, I recognized the same young man waiting in my line. When his turn came, he said somewhat sheepishly, "I need to change the numbers on that plate application."


*-------------- Guaranteed to Roll Your Eyes --------------*
In the small, family-owned store in Spokane, Washington where I work, we often get folks from out of town whose idioms are a little different from our own. One day, after parking her car across the street in an attended lot, a young woman came in. She made her purchase and then asked, "Do you give validation?"

Without batting an eye, my manager replied, "You are an excellent, successful person, and I love your hair."
