Used humorously.” That’s what I thought too when T introduced the phase in a recent/"j44,, shop hopper. However, various and sundry citizenry read more sinis- ter meanings into a crazy little innocent bit of tom-foolery, Now I’m real happy to see that there are loyal folks left in the world and that they will take up the cudgel for a friend when they feel! they are being knocked about. I would hasten to reassure these folks that in no way was the ce- mark meant as a slur on my very good friend Susan. In fact, shop shopping being what it is, some- times these little inserts are writ- ten weeks in advance, and _ this had been one that had in part been used before with Susan's full know- ledge and permission. In fact she seemed to think it funnier than I did. This is a tongue in cheek sort of little opus anyhow, so don’t take anything to heart except the shop- ping news, We're not sorry we wrote what we did, but we're mighty sorry it was misunderstood.
