The clerk at the Dollar Store looked perplexed. Capt Farrell, on his first full day of
retirement was the very first customer on this humid July morning. Wearing his traditional Parker
ball cap, he laid his very first retirement purchase on the counter. Six “ Afro Combs” in assorted
pastel shades. The clerk could only hold her curiosity so long.
“Excuse me sir...” she blurts...” "I can’t help but wonder, why is a bald white guy buying
six Afro Combs ???"
Kevin, reaching for his “change purse” to give the clerk the EXACT amount of his $6.36
purchase, retorts, “ It’s the first day of my retirement, and I’ve always wanted to COMB my lawn."
"Comb your lawn?”
“Yes, today I’m going to comb and touch every single blade of grass in my yard.”
The clerk is bewildered, like a Grady White owner being passed by a Classic Parker.
“ Why in the world would you possible want to comb your lawn ?”
“ Because I’m Kevin Farrell” and “ I can”
