yeah, Totten really seems like an upstanding organization…

THAT WAS sarcasm… LOL…

“I’ve been meaning to ask you, where have you been getting your eyebrows done? I need a touch-up.”

“Clod Squad.”

Isn’t that Fred Trump behind the desk? Looks quite like the image Google brings up when I search for the name.

It sounds like the boss at the Totten Organization is not much better at English that the so-called idiot. “Why the cops bother me?” is not a sentence I would expect from a native speaker of English. I’m not sure yet what’s up with this Sprengstoff guy.

“Sprengstoff? Never heard of him. Sounds vaguely like somebody born to run…”

Sprengstoff is German for “explosive”.

Evidently Junior is the “fixer” for the Totten Organization. He definitely has the looks for the job.

Eh what kinda Rotten Organisation this be?

Good morning™, Bushy Brow Bad Guys !

I sense sinister intent but it looks like one guy will get recovery while the other will be left to his own devices.

“THAT’S NOT A HORSE….THAT’S MY MOTHER”

Day 11: Two drunks the same day engaged in the same misdemeanor behavior with Totten IDs and it’s a fluke? We’re still not sure what the Totten Organization is, although the execs look a little better dressed than one might expect in a construction company. And, depending on what the organization does, I might expect a little more concern that someone is making fake IDs (if it was a fake ID, at the moment we can’t be sure — guy behind desk could be engaged in implausible deniability). I mean, the CIA, the YMCA, or the Girl Scouts probably don’t want people running around with fake IDs claiming to be members / employees.

Verdict: Circumstantial evidence suggests we’ve started to wade in something unpleasant, but misdirection is a well established part of mysteries, so the jury is still weighing the evidence.

More like the Rotten Organization just like this story !

A “tottering” organization I would say!

Well SOMETHING is Totten in Denmark! Wonder if it’s “green” and “organic”

Can’t wait for a closeup of the guy behind the desk.He looks like he inhaled his own face.

Meanwhile,at Ann Sathers’ Pancake House….

1- DONALD: Why’d you name the new construction Two Fox Plaza instead of Totten Tower, Daddy?

2- FRED: Sign maker no unnerstan me. He ask “what I write on sign?” and I tell heem – “I don’t give two fuchs what you put on it.

3- : … Now we talk about you new look. Very 1930’s Germany- blond, slicked back and too short in back. I like BUT black eybrows no work. Fix. Now. DONALD: YOU’RE NEVER PLEASED WITH ANYTHING I DO!!!

FRED: That not true. I like latest wife! KOW-A-BUNGA!

considering the company name is basically “The Death organization” and founded just a few years after the fall of Berlin…

A new tune written by home town boy, Johnny Couger Mellencamp and covered by yours truly. An inspirational piece that will get you to the POLLS! You know, if you’re not busy that day AND YOU’RE NOT CANADIAN OR AUSTRALIAN OR BRITISH (like some of our fellow Commenters have the misfortune of being…the poor sods…)

The blond guy’s haircut gives me the shivers

“The other guy”…. hmm. I think he’s a Totten—as in a brother or half-brother to Junior.

But if you don’t know who the other guy is, how do you know he’s not part of problem?

Why do I have this horrible feeling we’re about to fall back on the “evil twin” bit? (Or, in this case, the “even more evil twin” bit?)

Meanwhile, Ribs Mocco’s 100th Birthday passes without notice…..
