A Scribe's Rant



Normally I, as the Nation Scribe, try to report the life and times of the Prince and his Royal Family, but I have been given the opportunity to address the fine people of Caleb Nation and talk a moment about something that I have discovered.

The age old question, "where do all those socks go that don't leave the dryer?" has been answered and the answer my friends, is... my dryer. I have discovered 12 lonely socks that have no partners. 12 single white socks that have somehow managed their way into my dryer leaving me astounded in my discovery that there are even 12 different styles of white socks. So the next time you reach into your dryer and find that you are one sock short, don't feel sad, your sock will be well taken care of.

I will now return to my duties as your National Scribe. Thank you.

hmmm, are any of those stowaways from your recent trip to Florida? a couple of those look just like a few singles I found in my dryer!

i don't remember doing any laundry there but it is possible i suppose. these socks have a mind of their own.

I think the whole family should get together and bring all their lonely socks. We could look through all of them. I bet we would be able to reunite many sad, separated socks!
So, ladies, save your socks -- we may start a new family tradition: The Annual Sock Reunion!

that would be sweet. let's pick a day and get this thing in motion. i would vote for sometime in the summer so Amy can participate too!

so that's where all my matches are! I've got a box full ready for that sock reunion!

Hmmmm...I actually just threw all my lonely socks away...I guess I'm heartless.

The summer it is! Keep saving those socks, ladies! Or start saving them, if you've been heartless up to now. ;)

there will always be more lonely socks no matter how many you throw away. they are like the boomerangs-- they always come back.
