STELLA: Are you kidding? It was Martha who placed the ad. The poor woman's plumb wore out.

Mermaid Melanie said...

hilarious. are you sure you want apple juice? maybe one cranberry one apple. you know. variety.

Mary Witzl said...

Wish I could oblige, and the lack of teeth is a real plus. But alas, I have none of the requisites!

Charlie said...

MEL: Sorry, gotta be apple. I'm not a cran-apple fan.

MARY: You are a kind person, but I'm not trying to recruit any of my Blogger friends--it would seem somehow incestuous, plus I don't want any of you to see me in my jammies.

The commute would be hell, too.

St Jude said...

Ah nipples, jammies and my dear old friend Charlie... I'm home.

Charlie said...

ST. JUDE: IT'S GREAT TO SEE YOU BACK! BOY, HAVE I MISSED YOU!

(Yes folks, I was screaming.)

St Jude said...

I've missed you too xx

So how many applicants have you had????
And what is the 'screening' process for your nurses?

Charlie said...

PENDULLLUM: THE SECOND MIA RETURNS IN AS MANY DAYS! Welcome back!

We've been very short of applicants (I believe we're still hovering around zero), and the screening process would be the usual--which means I haven't the faintest idea.
