Pluggers by Rick McKee for March 16, 2023

older than the tongue?

And the plugger knows when to hold her tongue.

The plugger can smile through her teeth.

Born with a tongue as standard equipment. Teeth were an after market accessory. So, ask me how old I am and this was a civilized response meaning none of your business. I guess I’m THAT old. Yeesh!

… and old enough to know better.

My grandmother used that expression. Haven’t heard it in years.

Still have most of my originals; just two bridges to fill in the gaps.

also stated on a job application to be Macy’s Santa Claus in Miracle on 34th street—-1947

And female pluggers, unlike Santa, can also chew bubble gum with no fear of disastrous facial consequences.

I have got a LOT to learn about being a Plugger! So much wisdom here.

Plugger wisdom is gained slowly.

Actually, pluggers and their teeth are the same age. Humans are born with two sets of teeth (teeth buds) hiding in their jaws, the primary teeth that erupt when the person is a few months old, and the secondary/permanent teeth that begin erupting when the baby teeth start to fall out at around age six.

Cat got your tongue?
