   I worked abroad a few years, and my sister always wanted me to bring back ordinary coins from wherever I was. That wasn’t hard because they were always the kind you can’t exchange when leaving the country. Most exchange places only took bills or notes, not coins. I think I had one of these for my sister for awhile.

   And his true colors show in 2 seconds flat. Nice try, Kittycat. Thanks for the laugh, Mr Smith!

   That cat is an absolute snot! Poor doggie. But they do bring the rest of us a lot of mirth. Thanks, Mr Smith, for a good laugh!

   We had one dog who would sit very nicely on command on the carpet. In the kitchen (tile floor) she would almost-sit instead. She’d balance with her behind about half-an-inch off the floor, but otherwise look like she was sitting. That must’ve taken some good muscle control, but the kitchen floor was collllld!

   Most likely the UK. It looks like a plain old 10p coin. She may have added it for scale, like some Americans photograph things next to a penny or a quarter.

   That would’ve had to have been a long time ago. Charlie Brown is over 70. I think he’s 75 this year. My sister-in-law claims to be the same age as Charlie Brown because he was also born in 1949.

   I was with a touring theater company for years. We went minimalist on the road, but in the summer when we were stationary, we used full production values — albeit on a budget. We grayed hair with shoe polish, etc.

   One time I was doing an older role and went to the “hair crew” to have the shoe polish applied as usual. I got there and told them I’d need to be grayed. One of the gals on duty that night ran her hands through my hair and happily said, “Oh, we won’t need to gray you. You’ve got plenty!” I guess she was right, as I have never needed shoe polish in my hair since.

    Me, too. I just thought he’d gotten fully bald.
