Puppy Love<br />
Submitted by Pam Ashby<br />
“I feel there is nothing more artistic than loving people.” — Vincent Van Gogh<br />
When Joe met Betty<br />
he immediately fell in<br />
love with her. She also<br />
seemed to be enjoying<br />
his company greatly.<br />
After dating for some<br />
time Joe decides to<br />
pop the big question to<br />
Betty. Mustering all his<br />
courage one day he<br />
walks up to Betty.<br />
“Ummm…Betty?” Joe<br />
says.<br />
“Yes, Joe.” Betty<br />
replied.<br />
“You know it is really<br />
great to be a bachelor,<br />
but after a period<br />
of time every man<br />
needs someone in<br />
his life-who will make<br />
him feel like a hero,<br />
whom he can claim as<br />
his own, who will love<br />
him unconditionally,<br />
who will be caring and<br />
remain true to him all<br />
the time.” Joe finally<br />
finishes.<br />
Joe was happy to look<br />
up to see understanding<br />
eyes from Betty. He<br />
started to feel elated.<br />
Then Betty nodding<br />
her head in agreement<br />
said “I understand<br />
what you mean and I<br />
totally agree with you,<br />
Joe.<br />
Let’s go and see<br />
where we can find a<br />
puppy for you.”<br />

Gifted Hands<br />
Barbershop<br />
Not everyone has to like you. Not everyone has taste.<br />
<strong>Uncle</strong> Andy’s <strong>Digest</strong><br />

Barber/Owner, Cody Childs<br />
Cody Childs recently<br />
opened Gifted Hands<br />
Barbershop in Auburn.<br />
Cody has been cutting hair<br />
for a year and a half now.<br />
He was inspired to become<br />
a professional barber by<br />
his <strong>Uncle</strong> Don Borodin.<br />
Don has been a Master<br />
Barber for over 30 years,<br />
and owns a very successful<br />
barbershop in the Lewiston<br />
area, Blais Barbershop.<br />
In June 2015 Childs enrolled<br />
at Aveda Institute of Maine<br />
for the Limited Barbering<br />
program, which specialized<br />
in men and boys hair cuts<br />
and straight razor shaving.<br />
Childs started classes in<br />
October of 2015, and completed<br />
the 800 hour program<br />
in June 2016.<br />
Upon graduation he considered<br />
many job opportunities.<br />
However, he had a<br />
different goal in mind. He<br />
wanted a shop of his own,<br />
a shop that could do both<br />
the classic and trending<br />
styles. Childs wanted a<br />
place you could stop in<br />
and get a good old fashion<br />
straight razor shave with<br />
the hot lather and hot towel<br />
finish. If you’ve had it done<br />
before you know its one of<br />
the finer things in life!<br />
Childs began searching<br />
for a location to indulge<br />
into his own business. On<br />
October 19th, 2016 Childs<br />
opened his shop here in<br />
the L/A community. Cody<br />
Childs is now the proud<br />
owner of Gifted Hands<br />
Barbershop, located 120<br />
Center St., Ste 205 Auburn<br />
ME 04210.<br />

Actor’s<br />
Marriage<br />
Submitted by Steve Simard<br />
An aspiring young<br />
actor asked a young<br />
lady’s father if he could<br />
have his daughter’s<br />
hand in marriage. The<br />
father said, “I would<br />
never let my daughter<br />
marry an actor.”<br />
The actor said, “Sir, I<br />
think you may change<br />
your mind if you see<br />
me perform. Won’t you<br />
at least come and see<br />
the play?”<br />
So, the father went<br />
to see the play, and<br />
the next day he called<br />
the actor and says,<br />
“You were right, I did<br />
change my mind. Go<br />
ahead and marry my<br />
daughter. You’re no<br />
actor.”<br />
I like you a lottle. It’s like a little, except a lot.<br />

Fell Asleep<br />

Mr. Millett, a 2nd grade<br />

class and a Little Johnny<br />
walked up to him,<br />
“Mr. Millett, are you<br />
sleeping in class?”<br />

“Then what were you<br />

Mr. Millett replies, “I<br />

Blind Love?<br />
Submitted by Pam Ashby<br />
Don’t confuse an open mind with one that’s vacant.<br />
In California lived a<br />
blind girl. She had been<br />
blind since childhood<br />
and was sad about her<br />
shortcoming. No one<br />
wanted her except her<br />
boyfriend who loved<br />
her very much.<br />
One day they got news<br />
from the health department<br />
that someone has<br />
agreed to donate eyes<br />
to the blind girl. The girl<br />
was excited knowing<br />
that now, after so many<br />
years she would be<br />
able to see from her<br />
own eyes. She expressed<br />
her excitement<br />
with her boyfriend.<br />
Listening to this, her<br />
boyfriend just smiled<br />
and hugged her, letting<br />
her know he loved her<br />
no matter what. The<br />
day arrived and the operation<br />
was a success.<br />
When she opened her<br />
eyes she called for<br />
her boyfriend, but she<br />
learned to know that<br />
he would not be able<br />
to come. One day, her<br />
boyfriend returned to<br />
her. He had gone blind.<br />
My short-term memory is not as sharp as it used to be. Also, my short-term memory is<br />
not as sharp as it used to be.<br />
He proposed marriage<br />
to her but seeing him<br />
blind she declined the<br />
offer. She said that now<br />
that she could see why<br />
would she marry a blind<br />
person and take the<br />
burden for life. He went<br />
away brokenhearted<br />
and said “Take care of<br />
yourself and my eyes”<br />
before leaving. She did<br />
not know that the eyes<br />
through, which she<br />
could see now where<br />
her boyfriend’s.<br />

Do You Have<br />
The Time?<br />
Submitted by Thomas Hill<br />
Paula had been driving<br />
all night and was still<br />
at least six hours away<br />
from her destination. It<br />
was almost ten o’clock<br />
in the morning and<br />
she was extremely<br />
fatigued. After dozing<br />
off and nearly crashing<br />
into a telephone pole,<br />
she decided to pull<br />
into a rest area. Paula<br />
switched off the engine<br />
and closed her eyes<br />
and drifted off, gratefully,<br />
to sleep.<br />
I don’t go crazy. I am crazy. I go normal from time to time.<br />

As she did an old man<br />
in a bright yellow jogging<br />
tracksuit knocked<br />
on her window, scaring<br />
her half to death.<br />
“Sorry to wake you,<br />
ma’am,” he huffed, jogging<br />
on the spot, “But<br />
can you tell me what<br />
time it is?”<br />
Paula glanced at her<br />
watch. “10:00,” she<br />
answered through the<br />
window.<br />

The old man thanked<br />

“Just my luck,” she<br />
muttered. “I’m parked<br />
on someone’s jogging<br />
route.” With a sigh, she<br />
settled back into her<br />
seat and tried again to<br />
fall asleep.<br />

Now, they were just<br />
annoying.<br />
“Hi,” said the first.<br />
“Do you have the<br />
time?” his fair-haired<br />
friend asked.<br />
Paula let out a big sigh<br />
and said, looking at<br />
her watch. “10:08.”<br />
“Thanks,” they smiled<br />
as they jogged off.<br />
Paula looked down the<br />
road and saw more<br />
joggers coming her<br />
way. Now irritated,<br />
she found a pen from<br />
the glove box and<br />
scrawled: “I DO NOT<br />
KNOW THE TIME” on<br />
the back of a magazine.<br />
She put the hastily<br />
constructed sign in<br />
the window and settled<br />
back to sleep.<br />
Soon a thin, pale<br />
jogger knocked on the<br />
window just as she<br />
had started dozing off.<br />
Paula pointed at the<br />
sign and shouted, “For<br />
goodness sake, can’t<br />
you read?”<br />
To which he replied,<br />
“Sure I can, ma’am. I<br />
just wanted to let you<br />
know: It’s 10:10.”<br />

Submitted by Steve Simard<br />
I think you’re suffering from a lack of vitamin ME.<br />
Lady: Do you smoke?<br />
Man: Yes<br />
Lady: How many packs<br />

Man: 3 packs<br />
Lady: How much per<br />
pack?<br />
Man: About $10.00<br />
Lady: How long have<br />
you been smoking?<br />
Man: 15 years<br />
Lady: So 1 pack cost<br />
$10.00 and you have<br />
3 packs a day which<br />
puts your spending<br />
each month at $900. In<br />
one year, it would be<br />
$10,800 correct?<br />
Man: Correct<br />
Lady: If in 1 year you<br />
spend $10,800 not<br />
accounting for inflation,<br />
the past 15 years<br />
puts your spending at<br />
$162,000 correct?<br />
Man: Correct<br />
Lady: Do you know that<br />
if you hadn’t smoked,<br />
that money could have<br />
been put in a step-up<br />
interest savings account<br />
and after accounting<br />
for compound<br />
interest for the past 15<br />

Steve Grenier<br />
Celebrating 30 Years<br />
Teaching Music<br />
Steve’s love for music began<br />
when he was nine years<br />
old. St. Louis School in New<br />
Auburn offered a free string<br />
program to all interested<br />
students. Steve enrolled and<br />
soon excelled. After a very<br />
short time, he was being<br />
shuttled to a different school<br />
to play with more advance<br />
students.<br />
In 1985 he began guitar<br />
lessons at Carroll’s Music<br />
Center with local guitarist<br />
Denny Breau. After a year of<br />
lessons, Denny told Steve to<br />
“take six months to play what<br />
we have worked on and call<br />
me to restart lessons.” Anxious<br />
as Steve was to learn,<br />
he called to set up lessons<br />
three months later. After two<br />
lessons Denny approached<br />
co-owner Colleen Poulin and<br />
said to her, “Steve doesn’t<br />
need lessons, he needs students.<br />
Sign him up to teach.”<br />
And so began the journey.<br />
Steve’s life-long music teaching<br />
career started in 1987,<br />
at age 16, teaching guitar at<br />
Carroll’s Music Center.<br />
In 2009, Carroll and Collen<br />
announced the closure<br />
of Carroll’s Music Center.<br />
Unwilling to let go of the<br />
years of work and training<br />
Steve put into his career, he<br />
partnered with co-worker and<br />
friend Arthur Melendy and<br />
the two of them opened Main<br />
Street Music Lessons five<br />
weeks later. “Our students<br />
never missed a lesson in<br />
the transition,” says Steve...<br />
Almost eight years later they<br />
have grown into an amazing<br />
small business with ties deep<br />
into the community.<br />
Currently Steve can be found<br />
at Main Street Music Lessons<br />
teaching and repairing<br />
instruments or on stage with<br />
the L.A. Harley Band and<br />
latest adventure, his new<br />
band Fire in the Hole.<br />

I may not be Wonder Woman but I can do things that make you wonder.<br />
Janet went to an electronic<br />
shop in anger<br />
and threw her new laptop<br />
on the desk at the<br />
salesman from whom<br />
she bought it from.<br />
Janet yelled at the<br />
salesman saying she<br />
is unable to transfer<br />
her files from her<br />
previous computer to<br />
this one.<br />
Salesman says,<br />
“Janet, can you please<br />
show me how you<br />
have tried to transfer<br />
your files?”<br />
So Janet showed him<br />
how it didn’t work:<br />
1) Right clicked the<br />
mouse on the file<br />
which she wanted to<br />
transfer and selected<br />
COPY option.<br />
2) Disconnected the<br />
mouse from that<br />
computer.<br />
3) Took that mouse<br />
carefully and connected<br />
it to the other<br />
computer where she<br />
wanted to copy that<br />
file.<br />
4) Right clicked the<br />
mouse and selected<br />
the PASTE option.<br />
The Salesman<br />
fainted…<br />

Pawnshop Industry Facts<br />
• Pawnshops are required to report EVERY pawn or<br />
purchase transaction to their local police department<br />
• These police reports have shown that pawnshops<br />
received less than one tenth of 1% of items reported<br />
stolen or lost<br />
• Pawn businesses are heavily regulated and<br />
• Pawn loans are usually small, short-term loans<br />
as evidenced by the low national average loan<br />
amount of $80 and have no negative credit effect.<br />

Submitted by Steve Simard<br />
A man walks past a<br />
beggar every day and<br />
gives him $10 and<br />
continues that for a<br />
year. Suddenly the<br />
daily donation changes<br />
to $7.<br />
“Well,” the beggar<br />
thinks, “it’s still better<br />
than nothing.”<br />
A year passes in this<br />
way until the man’s<br />
daily donation suddenly<br />
becomes $3.<br />
“What’s going on<br />
now?” the beggar asks<br />
his donor.<br />
“First you give me $10<br />
every day, then $7 and<br />
now only $3. What’s<br />
the problem?”<br />
“Well,” the man says,<br />
“last year my eldest<br />
son went to university.<br />
It’s very expensive, so<br />
I had to cut costs. This<br />
year my daughter also<br />
went to university, so I<br />
had to cut my expenses<br />
even further.”<br />
“And how many children<br />
do you have?” the<br />
beggar asks.<br />
“Four,” the man<br />
replies.<br />
“Well,” says the beggar,<br />
“I hope you don’t<br />
plan to educate them<br />
all at my expense.”<br />

When Timmy went in<br />
for an interview at ABC<br />
company, he was hired<br />
after a very brief interview.<br />
A little skeptical<br />
at first, Timmy asked<br />
the company representative<br />
a few questions.<br />
It went like this.<br />
ABC: Trust me, this<br />
company could really<br />
use someone new.<br />
Timmy: If there is too<br />
much work, I’m going<br />
to quit.<br />
ABC: We’d NEVER<br />
let something like that<br />
happen.<br />
Timmy: Do employees<br />
get every Saturday<br />
and Sunday off?<br />
ABC: That’s a given.<br />
Timmy: Are employees<br />
required to work overtime<br />
without pay?<br />
ABC: No way. Where<br />
did you even come up<br />
with such a ridiculous<br />
idea?<br />
Timmy: Are meals<br />
subsidized?<br />
ABC: You BET!<br />
Timmy: Do the new<br />
employees usually<br />
end up doing ALL the<br />
work?<br />
ABC: That’s impossible.<br />
There are so many<br />
other experienced people<br />
in our company.<br />

Little Timmy was attending<br />
his first wedding.<br />
After the service,<br />
his younger cousin<br />
Tommy asked him,<br />
“How many women can<br />
a man marry?”<br />
“Sixteen,” Little Timmy<br />
responded.<br />
Tommy was amazed<br />
that he knew the answer<br />
so quickly. Then<br />
asked, “How do you<br />
know that?”<br />
“Easy,” Little Johnny<br />
said.<br />

is add it up, like the<br />
Preacher said: 4 better,<br />

poorer.”<br />

“Really? Even with all<br />

Auburn Police Chief Phillip<br />
L. Crowell, Jr. is proud to<br />
announce that the Auburn<br />
Police Department has been<br />
awarded national<br />
re-accreditation.<br />
On November 5, 2016, in<br />
Charleston, South Carolina,<br />
the Auburn PD was awarded<br />
international recognition for<br />
the 4th time by the Commission<br />
on Accreditation for<br />
Law Enforcement Agencies<br />
(CALEA).<br />
During an Auburn City Council<br />
Meeting held on Monday,<br />
January 23, Karen Shepard,<br />
Assessment Manager for<br />
CALEA, presented Chief<br />
Crowell and his staff with<br />
their official certificate of<br />
“Gold Standard Accreditation,<br />
With Excellence.”<br />
“The APD stands out as a<br />
model of excellence in law<br />
enforcement,” said Chief Phil<br />
Crowell. “I am so proud of my<br />
team - each of them worked<br />
tirelessly to earn the highest<br />
recognition of law enforcement<br />
professional excellence.<br />
That is really something to be<br />
proud of.”<br />
According to Accreditation<br />
Manager Liz Allen, “Only 5%<br />
of municipal law enforcement<br />
agencies in the United States<br />
are fully accredited and far<br />
fewer have received the<br />
‘With Excellence’ designation<br />
under the Gold Standard<br />
process of review.” Auburn<br />
is one of only a handful of<br />
law enforcement agencies<br />
in Maine to receive national<br />
accreditation. “We received<br />
our first full accreditation in<br />
2007,” said Allen. “And it has<br />
been part of our In 2013, APD<br />
became the first agency in<br />
Maine to achieve the Gold<br />
Standard level of Accreditation.<br />
Assessors will reevaluate<br />
the Auburn PD in August<br />
of 2020.<br />

Happiness is not setting the alarm for the next day.<br />
Mr. Schwartz was the<br />
oldest of 7 children, so<br />
he had to quit school<br />
and work to help support<br />
his younger brothers<br />
and sisters. He<br />
never learned to read,<br />
so when he married<br />
and started a checking<br />
account, he signed his<br />
checks simply “XX”.<br />
Eventually he started<br />
his own business,<br />
which immediately<br />
prospered.<br />
He soon was a very<br />
rich man. One day,<br />
he got a call from his<br />
bank. “Mr. Schwartz,”<br />
said the banker, “I<br />
need to ask you about<br />
this check. We weren’t<br />
sure you had really<br />
signed it. All these<br />
years you’ve been<br />
signing your checks<br />
‘XX’, but we just got<br />
one that was signed<br />
with three XXX’s...”<br />
Mr. Schwartz answered,<br />
“No problem,<br />
my friend. It’s just that<br />
since I’ve become<br />
so wealthy, my wife<br />
thought I ought to have<br />
a middle name.”<br />

Babies make<br />
everything better<br />
Sometimes people are beautiful, not in looks, not in what they say, just in what they are.<br />
<strong>2017</strong> marks Make-A-Wish Maine’s twenty-fifth year granting wishes<br />
to kids in our state. A flurry of anticipated energy and outreach is timed<br />
succinctly with the addition of several key board members as well as a<br />
new executive director who will focus on development efforts to ensure<br />
the next twenty-five years of wishes can be granted,” says Marketing<br />
Director Sonya Purington.<br />
The Make-A-Wish Maine Board of Directors’ nominee from the<br />
Lewiston-Auburn area is Jimbo Marston, Owner and President of <strong>Uncle</strong><br />
Andy’s <strong>Digest</strong>. Marston’s involvement with Make-A-Wish began in 2015<br />
when proceeds from <strong>Uncle</strong> Andy’s twentieth anniversary event benefited<br />
Make-A-Wish. Two wishes were granted in Androscoggin County<br />
thanks to the inaugural event. In 2016, <strong>Uncle</strong> Andy’s <strong>Digest</strong> partnered<br />
with Mac’s Grill and the LA Metro Chamber to host the Summer Block<br />
Party. The event raised funds to grant wishes to five more Maine kids.<br />
“Jim brings a passion for our mission, first-hand-knowledge of the<br />
power of a wish, marketing savvy and great connections in Androscoggin<br />
County,” says Marketing Director Sonya Purington.<br />
In addition to <strong>Uncle</strong> Andy’s <strong>Digest</strong>, Marston<br />
owns LA Metro Magazine, serves as President of<br />
the Auburn Wealth Builders BNI group, is a graduate<br />
of the Androscoggin Leadership Development<br />
Institute and Dale Carnegie Institute, and is affiliated<br />
with Toastmasters, LA Metropolitan Chamber of<br />
Commerce and the Auburn Exchange Club.<br />
When asked what brought him to Make-A-Wish,<br />
Marston explains, “MAW stands out in the crowd of<br />
non-profits because you know exactly where<br />
that money is going once it’s raised. It’s<br />
tangible, it’s measurable and it stays local.<br />
MAW is a first-class organization<br />
making a difference every day!”<br />
When Marston’s not busy with<br />
his professional obligations and<br />
philanthropic commitments, he<br />
enjoys spending time at his home<br />
in Mechanic Falls with his wife<br />
Sue of 23 years, his children<br />
and two young grandchildren.<br />
He enjoys enjoy playing<br />
racquetball and golf and they<br />
breed Golden Retrievers.<br />

Tickle Your Punny Bone<br />
with Ron Hood<br />
Ron Hood is the Director of Owner Services<br />
for Owner Media Group. He has a joke/pun<br />
of the day on his Facebook page (facebook.com/pezcollector)<br />
and a daily video<br />
pun on Snap Chat (Username: ron.hood).<br />
Feel free to add Ron as your friend. You<br />
can reach out to Ron with a punny note at<br />
OTDweather@gmail.com<br />
“I<br />
S<br />
<strong>February</strong> is the month of love. Although I<br />
find Valentine’s Day to be pure cupidity,<br />
I do know that many people love this holiday because they can party<br />
hearty! Personally, I love the very small Valentine notes (I call them<br />
Valen-tiny notes) because of the pun-ishment they deliver. I am sure that<br />
once in your life you have received a card that has a picture of 2 Deer<br />
with 2 hearts on it with the words, “Deer Valentine, Let’s have a ‘heart to<br />
heart.” That is funny stuff and these Valen-tiny’s are sold in group packs,<br />
which make their individual cost under a buck! It just goes to prove that<br />
you do not have to spend a lot of doe to have a ton of fawn.<br />
People celebrate Valentine’s Day in many different ways. My friend,<br />
Farmer Tim, gives his wife, Karen, hogs and kisses, but the pigs insist<br />
it is really Valen-swine’s Day! He also gives her a jar of her favorite<br />
pickles because she means a great dill to him. Karen says that love on<br />
the farm can be interesting. The skunks are known to be scent-imental<br />
while the cats are always playful and PURR-fect. With love in the<br />
air, the bats are fun to hang around, and the birds quickly become<br />
tweethearts. The squirrels are just nuts about each other, and the<br />
near-sighted porcupine fell in love with their pin-cushion. OUCH! Karen<br />
doesn’t have the heart to point that out, but Farmer Tim keeps needling<br />
her about it. Sew, hopefully, that porcupine won’t feel spoolish or come<br />
unraveled when he finds out the truth. The newest addition to the farm<br />
is a tropical fish tank. This proves it is ‘o’fish’ally Valentine’s Day with a<br />
serious case of guppy love.<br />
My daughter, who is an artist, will probably go to a famous museum<br />
with her Valentine to celebrate this special holiday. I am sure it will be<br />
Louvre at first sight because she has an incredible amount of art-official<br />
intelligence. This visit will certainly put them in a good frame of<br />
mind, and I know she will love him with all her art. There’s a chance<br />
my daughter will decide to become an art dealer. It will certainly bring<br />
her more Monet, which would be nice. This will certainly show that<br />
romance isn’t a science, it’s a heart.<br />
For people who do not like Valentine’s Day, it is a SAD day...Single<br />
Awareness Day, or as I see it, committed bachelors and bachelorettes<br />
that are heartful dodgers! It is these people that wear their hearts on<br />
their sleeve, but oddly enough, all they own are tank-tops! They are like<br />
romance novelists, who never die, but simply run out of steam.<br />
I know many single people who use Valentine’s Day to book the “perfect”<br />
psychic to find out their future love. I am not sure how you find the<br />
perfect psychic, but if you can’t choose between an angry psychic and<br />
a sad psychic, you’ll have to find a happy medium.<br />
Well, Jimbo says I have to end spreading the love of Valentine’s Day.<br />
My final thought in these times of pop culture love is to remember that<br />
even Brad Pitt can’t make Angelina jolly!<br />
Maybe I will discuss soldiers in my next article since the date soldiers<br />
wait for is March forth! See you next month!<br />
BLAST FROM THE PAST<br />
Ron Hood, our very punny pun master and PEZ man.<br />
Some of you may recall this from our April 2005 issue<br />
where Ron was featured in the <strong>Digest</strong> about his expansive<br />
PEZ dispenser collection. He might arguably have<br />
the largest PEZ collection in the world, with over 3,000<br />
pieces in his collection.<br />
So, who knew? Jimbo didn’t. Almost 12 years later our<br />
good friend is now a monthly columnist who continually<br />
comes up with a new twist on puns. Keep up the good<br />
work, Ron!<br />

there every summer,<br />

Ode to My Braces<br />
Dr. Thomas J. Bauer<br />
Androscoggin Orthodontics<br />
“Just a few more months”, so I am told,<br />
As the days pass by and the weather grows cold,<br />
Holiday cheer and kids’ smiling faces<br />
Remind me constantly that I am still stuck with my braces.<br />
Winter has arrived here in Maine,<br />
And heavy is the metal that conducts the cold to my brain,<br />
Making it difficult to hear my mom’s shrill refrain:<br />
“Wear your elastics and brush your teeth better,<br />
Yes, it is cold, but teeth don’t need to wear sweaters!”<br />
In my defense, I’m not fully to blame!<br />
Mouthguards break braces during practice and games;<br />
So what if I want to keep my lovely overbite?<br />
And I’m pretty sure I brushed just the other night!<br />
<br />
I am no poet, please don’t judge me at all;<br />
I’m just passing time in today’s study hall<br />
And dear reader, think on this:<br />
There is no word to rhyme with “orthodontist”.<br />
What news will I receive at my visit today?<br />
I hope to have braces off before next May!<br />
Or perhaps my overbite is here to stay…<br />
So I sit in the chair and allow my hopes to be raised,<br />
But I hear again that terrible phrase:<br />
“Just a few more months.”<br />
