Me and Laura Lee Hobbs were getting ready for work over at the Dime Store and watching "The Twilight Zone" at the same time. Years of being trained noticers have enabled us to do many tasks ably at once, or at least allowed us to try many tasks at once and complete a couple every now and then. Today's episode was called "The Trouble with Templeton" and it aired in 1960. The character in the program played an actor and as he was reading a script (from the great beyond--this was the Twilight Zone, remember) he read a line that went, "Barney, you're a scream, a real scream!" Well, I said to Laura Lee Hobbs, "Laura Lee Hobbs, did you just hear that." And Laura Lee Hobbs said to me, "You bet I did. I'm a trained noticer too. That spooked us up both good and proper. And well, we grabbed up the babies, forced down our food, and headed straight over to the Dime Store and prayed. It just proves that not only will our Barney stay with us for as long as we have copies of TAGS, but the memory of this little darling is apt to pop up in the darnedest of places. Just keep your eyes and ears open, Trained Noticers. Me and Laura Lee Hobbs will. Lydia, come on over and see us at the Dime Store sometime. We'd love to have you; I'm having the hardest time keeping Laura Lee from crying. That girl loves to gossip, that is true, but she has the tenderest heart. You know, there's only one true Laura Lee Hobbs!
