When my ex-husband was at Fort Benning, I used a public laundromat. A local fellow was folding his socks. He said the doctor advised him to wear only white socks, because of an allergy.
"It must be from the dyes," I responded.
"Naw, it was the from the colors," he said.
After I retired from corporate work, I got a job in a retail store to pass the time. I suggested to the manager that we could save time if all six work stations had a hand-held calculator, and that they were on sale at Staples that week.
"Should I pick up half a dozen calculators on my lunch break?" I asked.
"No, that's too many," she said.
"OK, how many should I get?" I asked.
"Six."
