( This ) I did our 59th summer event at a Sturgeon Festival parade today
and had a great time.  A little boy joined me at my table while I was
eating and he talked up a storm telling me how he wanted to be a policeman
some day.  He was 7 years old.  I showed him my handcuffs and talked about
the police and then told him that I had been a teacher and we talked about
school.  Then his mother took some pictures and said he had to go.  He gave
me a hug and said, "I wish you were my dad."  Must be a dad missing in his
life.  How sad.

( That ) Now for a funny bit.  I was watching a Mayberry RFD episode and
Sam Jones came into Emmett's fix it shop.  He handed Emmett his appliance
and said, "It quit popping".  Well, I could tell from where I was sitting
what was wrong with it.  It was a toaster.  It's not suppose to do any
popping.
