Transcript:
PENCIL: "YEAH BOSS, WE FOUND JOEY THE MECHANIC...JUST LIKE YOU ASKED, WE FILLED HIM FULLA LEAD." PENCIL 2: "IT'S GRAPHITE, CARMINE, GRAPHITE." PENCIL: "WHATEVER."
They put .9 mm into his .5 mm body. I went to a snooty art store because I already had enough mech. pencils so I was buying leads for it, before I made the LEAD faux pax the clerk said “just the graphite today.” Dodged a bullet.
ndalaff: Sounded more like skiffle, which I haven’t heard since Alec Guiness in All At Sea, a similar English folk style but with a clarinet instead of muted trumpet. If they have an opening for a walking tub bass, I may be available.
