Shady Acres #3

by

Billy Ray: And the new tennis net arrived yesterday. However, the tennis court still hasn't been built, so if anyone needs a hammock for a very tall, skinny person see the management of Shady Acres! And now with your weather update here's Virginia Reynolds...

Virginia: Cold. We have poor circulation. It's always cold. Jasper...

Jasper: Finally...last night Milton Freeman won $67 dollars in a poker game. So, if Milton owes you money make sure you hit him up before he blows it all on arthritis cream and laxatives. That's it for the Shady Acres Nightly News...Good night.

Zelda: Good night.

    Not sure if that's constructive criticism or not, Brian, but thanks for reading.

    I’m left wondering if Hermione had been simply trying to keep old Henry warm in the best way she knew before she moved on to help raise Burt’s circulation. But I guess old Burt’s circulation didn’t need to be raised up, because he was going down.... somewhere mighty hot.

    Christopher... I am fairly certain that there was no criticism intended at all, whether constructive or not. Just a turn of phrase that maybe doesn’t cross the pond.

    I didn't understand the comment but I wasn't offended either way.
