The line

you know, in the olden days, we used to queue for hours for tangerines and bananas and car tires ....but grilled cheese sandwiches? i personally have a wiener schnitzel in my purse and consider this to be a major letdown. i will stay in the queue in case you're wrong and there's something else at the end of this.

What exactly IS everyone in this line for....?

Better get in line and find out, must be worth it. Right?

Cycloptichorn

I thought they banned long lines.

Maybe this line is for a tuna semmich.

Get outta here! I haven't been waiting in this damned line for five years for some stinkin' fish sandwich. I want my GRILLED CHEESE!!!

Havarti? or would you prefer Swiss?

the lineup for Swiss is on the next block.

I demand italian fontina on bread from Puglia. No, not Puglia supermarkets if they have them now.

What line? I doan see no steenkin' line. Whatchoo all on aboot then?

I think this is just plain old government cheese.

on white bread...

white bread?

wrong line. you need to be over on the next block with Eva. White bread, swiss cheese, mayo - all on the next block.

Ohhhh...that's here the long line is.

I've had that govmint cheese.. my inlaws used to get it. They were, ah, very tight, but lest I sound like I am making fun, no - their families squirreled their nuts and made it through the depression. Just that they were still doing all that forever, after they'd banked quite a bit.

That did make for tough christmas presents for the boys - packages of white sox, and some plaid shirts from the aunts in Montana. Period.


So is plaid back in this year? I don't think so.

That's over in the Penny's flannel shirts department line.




(I liked flannel shirts from Penny's. Would prefer them not to be plaid now)

White bread, wheat bread, Swiss cheese, government cheese...I don't care. I'll eat whatever kind of cheese sammich they have. I'm not giving up my place in line now!

HEY, YOU! I saw that! Thought you'd try to cut ahead of me in line while I was talking to ehBeth, didja? Well, it's not gonna work. Go to the end of the line! That's right, down the block, around the corner, over the bridge and about two miles south. I think that's where it ends now.

You think we're gonna let you cut in line after all the time we've been standing here? Think again, mister.

Six years.

We've been standing here for six years.

Ya think the cheese is aged enough?

Probably parmigiano..

Once again, I am lost and confused. Which line is the ice cream line?

er...ah...I thought ehBeth was holding a place in line for me. Is that against the rules?

<rushes in>

Andy, thank you for holding my purse and our spot in line.

Phew.

Has the line moved at all.

Is this i-phone line? Might I ask a question, if it is? What the hell can you do with one that justifies the expense?

Surf high quality/high res. porn anywhere you are in the world? Would that sound appealing and notable enough for the high cost of an iPhone and it's even costlier data rates?
