Wow! I've listened to this several times, and true to form, I often "pick up" nuances that I missed after the first listen. This time, coincidentally listening on a Frday, as this show was apparently recorded, i picked up that Shep mentioned he was happy that the "Editorial 'We'" have 'survived another week' during the "World spinning in 'bad orbit'"🤔 Edit: Shep mentions problems that we have 'survived,' such as Inflation and "Non-inflation"😂 Also a possible reaction by a person who had just received a stapler as a Christmas gift: "JUST WHAT I ALWAYS WANTED!!! A THING TO STAPLE MY BILLS TOGETHER!!!😂😂😂 Another nuances i forgot that Shep mentioned was "volcanic ash" he observed falling fom a piece of mail being handed back to him, which turned out to be from a box of pulverized cookies someone had sent him😂😂😂
The "Notions" Department. I haven't heard that word since the 1960's. And I still haven't a notion what would be in the "Notions" Department. And to praraphrase Arlo Guthrie from his "Rueben Clamzo" story: "I may have an idea, but I'm probably wrong... " 😛
so many thanks
Excelsior!
Merry Christmas 🎅 DG

Shep calling out mail for *"Braunshweiger!..."* Braunschweiger is AKA Liverwurst. My family misnomered it as "Liverwish."😛
