    Chock Full O’ Nuts refers to their head office not their product.

    BTW I cut off all my hair and that really saves on salons/barber shops.

    And, believe it or not, grape nut cereal contains neither grapes nor nuts.

    Actually, Chock Full O’Nuts was the name of the chain of nut shops that sold and marketed the coffee.

    I found out only last night that Apple Jacks cereal has no apples.

    Whoa… coffee with no nuts in it.

    Who woulda thunk?

     

    Guess what…. grapefruit is not made of grapes!!

    And pineapples contain neither pine nor apples!

    Believe it or NOT.

     

    x_Tech…. and we hair cutters of the world are so grateful for that suggestion. Not.

     

    BTW…. Bob Ross got the perm when he was just starting out on his painting gig….

    He was traveling, not making much yet, and the perm saved time and money… not having to find a new stylist or barber in a strange town,etc.

    He HATED it.

    But by the time he was making money and wanted to get haircuts,

    his face was famous, and he used it as his logo….

    It was even pictured on his line of art products…

    so he felt he had to keep that style for the rest of his life.

    Why did the artist of this comic draw Bob Ross holding an outdoor paint brush; the kind you would paint a house or a fence with? You can’t create the kind of paintings he painted with that kind of brush.

    And an alligator pear is not a pear or an alligator.

    as Bob always said there are only happy mistakes when painting. I still watch when I see him on a PBS or other local channel. I remember looking forward each week to see what he would creat

    Isn’t that why everyone does a perm?

    Well…Austin Powers drank some of Fat Bastard’s liquified s#-@+ thinking it was coffee and remarked that it was “a bit nutty”
