Pig: Hey, Goat... where you off to? Goat: I need some greeting cards, so I'm going to that new stationery store. Pig: Was the old one rolling around? Goat: Never mind. Pig: I prefer all my stores to be stationary.
Hmmm…. I like the food trucks at the farmer’s market, and the taco trucks on the west side of town, which move - though they do try to stay pretty still when you’re buying something.On the other hand I was the manager of a shop in the downtown mall on Oct 17th 1989, when suddenly, for a few minutes,NONE of the stores were stationary, not even the stationery store. Nobody could buy anything, though you’d think the prices would have fallen.When the shaking stopped I think we’d have said that we all preferred stationary stores.
