TURTLE – Mitch is a really nice turtle. We want to give him away to a good home. Our dog and cat can’t stand Mitch
and in a democracy the majority get to decide things. Sorry about that. #It’sTimeForMitchToGo.

Greetings Miss De Blasio, It took me a moment to figure out what a trap door means. Good stuff once again. I hope you’ll have a Thanksgiving version?
Happy day o’ the turkey and thanks for the laughs. I am thankful for finding your column every week.
PS – Poor turtle!
Hello Geedee,
I’m grateful that you found me and wrote a comment — I’m working on a special feature for Thanksgiving. Hope you like it.
Yes, poor turtle…we all want progress but don’t like change.
Thanks for posting.
