    I hope Gary has a stapling license.

    Good luck, Gary, I am sure there is a lot of demand. I do not see the staple remover on your table, that may be useful.

    I’ve heard that you can never go wrong selling staples.

     

    Well, I think that might mean staples like…. you know…. bread, eggs….

    toilet paper…. marshmallows……

     

    Not sure about staples that are…. well… staples.

     

    Anyway…. I hope Gary means to use all those devices on the table to actually be the “staplers” …

    ….and he will be the…. um…. “stapling service provider.”

    Oh heck, I guess that’s called a stapler too.

     

    What I’m trying to say, though, is that I hope he doesn’t mean that he’s planning to try being a stapling device…..

    like….. loading his throat with a strip of staples and biting them into the paperwork himself.

    Gary Stapler isn’t as well known as his brother Ken.

    He tried to get a loan for his business, but he had no collateral for collating.

    I don’t know where they buy all the card tables, but that store should make a lot of money from the entrepreneurs on that street.

    I hear that he is thinking about expanding into a 3 hole paper punch next week.

    Poor Gary’s just trying to hold things together.

    .

    He and his wife Melba, separated after she decided she’d had enough of his need to affix everything by tying their arguments into neat knots of logic and appending her every attempt to mount a rebuttal.

    .

    She simply felt pinned down by the relationship and ran away with a Scotch video taper !

    We know Gary well! He is always trying out the next big thing, except that time he decided to trip down the street in the alltogether. (I’d show you the pic I got with my phone, but I can’).

     

    Unfortunately that episode showcased the next little thing.

    Gary might find his business prospects improved if he sought work as an itinerant stapler. Go to where the work is.

    Unless she’s also a Notary Public, bending wire is not going to be a good business model.
