Upstaged

A-L: Hi! Happy Anniversary.

Public Safety Pete: Who is this?

A-L: Very funny. That only works once a year.

Irma: Hi. Did you call to wish us a Happy 40th Anniversary?

A-L: I certainly did. And I'll patch Sister Maria in so that she can send her greetings.

Sister Maria: Happy Anniversary. I have bad news. The elaborate anniversary party we've been planning for ages is canceled.

PSP: What happened?

Sister Maria: Michael Jackson stole your venue.

Irma: You were going to have our party at the Stapler Center?

A-L: Funny, my former colleague Hamid used to call the Staples Center that as well.

PSP: Looks like we'll have to settle for leftovers, an evening walk, and then fall asleep watching the 10 o'clock news.

Irma: Speak for yourself, I'm taking the red eye to Vegas and hittin' the black jack tables.

My Super Cute Neighbor
























This is Calvin. My neighbor. He's even sweeter than he looks. His hobbies include chasing the ball, making friends, and napping. (He doesn't know he has one German Shepherd ear, and one Rottweiler ear.)

Kitty: He didn't.

A Man, A Plan, An Anniversary Party in Panorama City

Sister Maria: Cousin Judy had a great suggestion for the 40th Anniversary party.

A-L: Was it to seat Mrs. Meyer next to Mr. Meher, and vice versa?

Sister Maria: Close. She thought of the *perfect* venue.

A-L: I know exactly what I'm going to make you say.

Sister Maria: That's right, she suggested the Knight's Head Inn in North Hollywood.

A-L: The bar where Pete and Irma met?

Sister Maria: That's right.

A-L: You know Irma's mortified that she met her husband in a bar.

Kitty: Especially since it's really in Panorama City, and not the more-glamorous-sounding North Hollywood.

Sister Maria: Public Safety Pete says it's not there anymore.

A-L: Well, I Googled "Knight's Head Inn", and all I get are some posts from a woman who is looking for her birth mother, who used to work there.

Sister Maria: I'll phone Pete and Irma and ask them if they remember a waitress named
Linda Turco.

Kitty: She's on
Facebook.

Sister Maria: So we've reunited someone with her mother, but still no venue.

Kitty: Stay tuned.
