Close to Home by John McPherson for October 20, 2018

Aha, the little yellow alien took yesterday off so he could make time-and-a-half today.

Otherwise known as a meat market. Shouldn’t that name tag read “Nerd”?

He was the only one who could produce what Tina craved in a man.

Looks like a Publix employee?

Tina was searching for some melons in the produce department and Ned was really into Honey-Dews when they first saw each other. They knew their single days were squashed and after that they both didn’t have a carrot in the world!

Lousy hours and low pay. Tina should’ve kept looking.

Wonder what kind of kids they will “produce”

She has a set of shoulders like a full-back! He better treat her right.

My first wife found me in a grocery store. I should have hidden in the bathroom until she was gone!

Produce what?

Grocery Store Joe! (On The Bachelorette, Bachelor in Paradise, and Dancing with the Stars)

Just because he works in the produce department doesn’t mean he’s able to.

Hi Little Alien Dude!!!!!! Were you the ring bearer, or the flower girl?? :)

Heard recently that people have discovered that supermarkets are a good place to meet people.

Which is funny to anyone from the 1970s. Especially if they shopped at the North Beach Safeway.
