Smile — it’s almost spring

Welcome to Around Thor
nhill. | hope this finds everyone
chipper and as anxious as I am
to see spring arrive — to be able
to get ouside and rake leaves
and pick up all that garbage that
somehow materializes during
the winter. And time to set out

the bird feeders once again and

entice all the wildlife to enter
your yard, sit among the leaves
and branches and twitter or
scold you for entering your own
back yard,

‘How about a smile for the
day?

A man was marooned on an
island. One day, as he stood on
the shore hoping to see a ship, a
scuba diver in a rubber suit
came out of the water. The man
was astonished as the diver pull-
ed off mask and helmet and a
mane of blonde hair fell to her
shoulders.

You're gorgeous,” said the
man. The diver smiled and ask-
ed, “Is there-anything I can do
for you?"

“‘Weil, [ haven't had a mar-
tini for a year, but I don’t sup-
pose there’s anything you can
do about. that.”” The diver un-
zipped a side pocket on her wet
suit where she had a plastic
flask, and another pdcket which
contained a small bottle of mix,
and made him a martini,

‘Anything else?’’ she asked.
“*A cigar — but I know that is
impossible,"" The diver opened
another pocket, pulled out a
cigar and lit it for him.
‘Something else?’’ she asked.
“Nope. I’m just fine now.’’

“You mean you don’t want
to play around after being here
by yourself for a year?”* The
man’s eyes lit up. ‘‘Say, don’t
tell me you’ve got a set of golf
culbs in there too!”’

To end this weeks Around
Thornhill, how about another
smile?

One of our temporary
drivers, a college student, was

on his way to pick up a load of |

dairy products, when, at a par-
ticularly sharp curve-he rolled
the truck into the woods, dented
the roof and wounded his pride.
_ The truck was rescued, the

‘roof repaired and the cab given
"a bright new paint job. The

paint was barely dry when the
boss decided to make the ‘milk
run’’ himself and promptly fiip-
ped the truck into the woods on
the same curve. But it landed
neatly upright and without a
scratch,

- As we gathered at the scene,
he paused and then announced,

x

“If you’re going to roll one of °

my trucks, that's the way I want
it done.” Thank you for
reading Around Thornhill and
until next week, Smile.G.K.
