Hm-m-m, let's see now...must be a new invention. I see a magnifying glass, a pen, and a piece of paper in a clever stand. It's for nearsighted writers who, if they don't like their prose, or make a mistake, can burn up their work if the sun hits the magnifying glass at the right spot. Very clever. It's multi-purposed.
Pamela: Please allow me to introduce you to my assistant, Edward Cliphands. He’s actually an old invention for tinkerers with poor eyesight and unsteady hands. He’s quite good at holding little things still for gluing and soldering and such, but in this photo he’s just observing and taking notes. Most days he just stands next to my computer holding a pair of my back-up reading glasses.
Edward: This is Pam. She’s the one who mailed us the horse poop.
Thanks Marc! We have plenty of poop suppliers around here, but Pam’s the only one who mails hers out in fancy gift bags. I hate to brag, but I’ve got the classiest bag of poop in town!
Sometimes my brain works so slow. I should have named my assistant Edward Tweezerhands. I know, technically they're clips, but Tweezer is his new name. "Edward Tweezerhands!" Yes, that sounds much better.
...and you're welcome Pam. Your horse poop is the envy of the neighborhood.
"Edward Scissorhands" is one of my favorite movies. I'm so happy you named your desk assistant "Edward Tweezerhands". I need to get one of those desk assistants. Since I'm close to geezer status, I'd call it...you got it..."Edward "Geezerhands".

Are you in need of horse poop? I wish you'd have let me know.
