The Damn Plural

Benjamin Hobbs:

Last week I moved, and I'm still unpacking.  Mostly books.  Lots and lots of books.  Dave sent this fax, which Matt ran Monday:

To which Matt asked "Yes, yes, happy anniversary to the Hobbs...es.  Hobbsi? What IS the damn plural?"

Hobbs.  

That's the damn plural.   

As in, "The Hobbs thank you for your well wishes." 

The Hobbs hope this helps you Matt!

Next Week: A real post? I hope! All this moving and renovating has got me ready to go back to the relaxing atmosphere of a daily grind.

For the record, I've only made this joke to Ben a half a dozen times...

I'm pretty sure that the proffered spelling for "Benjamin" is "Benyaameen".

That's how Benyaameen Frankelan spelled it and he discovered lighting.
