Hawaiian shirts. If you wear a Hawaiian shirt into Trader Joe’s, they will think you work there and ask you what aisle the almond butter is in. I say aisle 5, to be consistent.

You can buy nuts on Amazon. Just as fresh.

And they bring them to you.

So, you have wet nutz?

Little trick I learned to avoid the weather as much as possible whether it’s hot cold snow sleeting is when I’m going from Uptown to downtown Midtown vice versa just to walk through buildings there just open

Liked your story though

There was an old grocer millionaire in Knoxville, TN named Cas Walker...This is back in the ‘40’a through the ‘70’s...

He had ads on live TV about his stores and products...

One show he sponsored was Mull’s Singing Convention on Sunday mornings...Reverend J. Basil Mull and Mrs. Mull were their own MC’s...

One commercial went like this:

“Cas Walker has the biggest and best nuts in town...Ain’t that right Mrs. Mull???’

Oh Lordy, you are right, J. Basil!!!”

True story...

(Look up Cas Walker on Youtube)

“So the long train ride in from the Westport station. About an hour and 5 minutes on the Metro North to Grand Central.”

Some people think that riding on a commuter train is gay.

I’m not sure either way.

And then there are the nuts that shop there.
