Enjoy your flight, Mr. Johnson!

Good morning, Mr. Johnson! Thank you for choosing to fly with us to Milwaukee today, with stops in Knoxville and Fargo.

May I see some photo ID, Mr. Johnson? Hmmm. Well, I guess that’s close enough.

Did you pack all your own luggage today, Mr. Johnson? Did anyone give you anything suspicious? Nope? Great!

Okey-dokey. I’m gonna give you an aisle seat because this is a small plane, and well, other passengers might beat you to death in a window seat.

What line of work are you in? Selling homemade lunch meat door-to-door, huh? Well, folks are always gonna need lunchmeat, right?

Here’s your boarding pass, and you have a good one! Is that Mrs. Johnson I see coming this way? Oh, just call it a hunch….

Bob, I think I am gonna take some medication and hibernate….
These fashion designers are draining away my desire to EVER buy anything in fashion…
And what is a girl to do without some designer rags on her back… ?
And the correct answer to that would be…. Hibernate….

Hmn… The girl in red kinda reminds me of Lady Deathstrike from X-Men.

Or my next-door neighbor who works night shift at the local pub.

Just when I thought that I had all of the latest and newest Department of Defense weapons all catalogued, I see that you have found something else ever more bold!

The Personal Body Tank, complete with the innovative Personal Tread Wear!

You came through, once again, Mr RobbiBob!

So Mrs. Scissorhands, how is little Eddie doing?

Shra,

Be careful, some medications have nasty side effects and may cuase you to accidently purchase some haute couture.

All my clothing has matching tags to help avoid such fashion missteps. :-)
