me the ax.
After that I =
tried to be a tailor, but I just wasn’t suited for it (mainly because it =
was a sew-sew job and seamed more exciting than it =
was).
Next, I tried =
working in a muffler factory but found that =
exhausting.
I wanted to be =
a barber, but I just couldn’t cut it, so we =
parted.
Then I tried =
to be a chef — figured it would add a little spice to my life — but I =
just wasn’t at home on the range.
Finally, I =

the mustard.
