Well, you missed the King

Well, color us pea green...we got fooled.  Last Saturday when a guy who looked so much like "The King" walked out of the Post Office and over to our store, signed a few photos and sang us a song...well we were convinced.  Thank you. Thank you very much.

Alas, it wasn't him.  We remarked about this to a local friend who said he was fooled too when he was in line for stamps across the street.  Fool us once. Shame on you.  Fool us twice...well.....

We notice a lot of things from our front window...speaking of our Elvis walking over from the Post Office on Saturday. We like slow walkers who are taking it all in as opposed to the fast run-walkers who are going someplace and can't stop, look or listen. Guess that is just us.

Our local wag who comes in on Monday to find out what we are pourin' on Saturday (3-6p 132 Front, Greenport) stopped in to tell us a story:

'How long will it take me to walk into the village from here?' inquired the English tourist.
'No idea,' replied the Kerry farmer.
Off trudged the Englishman muttering to himself.
'Come back, sor,' called the Kerryman.
'What now?' asked the tourist.
'It'll take you about ten minutes.'
'Why didn't you tell me that in the first place?' asked the Englishman.
'Sure I didn't know how fast you walked!' smiled the farmer.
