A phone call at the bookstore
“Do you have any books on canes or walking sticks?”
“Uhhhh, no, I can’t say we do. Not in stock.”
“Nobody does! What’s going on? I’m in Barnes & Noble right now and they don’t either.”
“I don’t know what to tell you.”
“Okay, how about Myrtle Beach?”
“Nope, I don’t have any books in stock on Myrtle Beach either.”
“Fine, fine. One last question for you: where does Captain Hook buy his hooks?”
“I . . . don’t know.”
“The second hand store!”
