Yeah, once a year in the summer, the Phlegm Flam Man would come to town, selling snake oil, sarsaparilla for arthritis, coca for nasal decongestion, cures for hangovers, dream pills…But he was a pretty cool guy…Went by the name of Jerry…I remember Jerry. He was a good friend of mine….I never understood a single word he said, but he always had some mighty fine wine…Yeah, he always had some mighty fine wine.
No, I get flim-flan, and I daresay Miss Scarlet does too… it’s the phlegm connection we don’t get.
Is it just that he’s saying he’s ill, and fake illness is a phlegm-flam?Didn’t think of that cos I don’t assume a sick person has something respiratory.

I understand why one would wish to skip a Tupperware party. But I don’t understand the “phlegm-flam” reference.

If your runny nose clears up you should say “mucus gracias”……
