                         Letters to the turntable (1)

GUEST - "Hey Harv!  I own a small general store on the south side of Chicago . . . . Earlier this week I was at the cash register checking out customers and ran into a situation that I hope you can help me with.  


"There were 2 customers lined up at the checkout each purchasing the same item.  The first customer gave me a ten dollar bill and I gave back the correct change."  

"The second customer, purchasing the same item,  gave me a One hundred dollar bill and said "I want a discount!". I said "I'm sorry but we only give discounts for volume purchases and you have only 1 item".  He said "this is! . . . a volume purchase . . . I'm giving you more dollars."  I said "Oh I can see where this might be confusing to you but it doesn't work that way.  You see, you must purchase more  ITEMS to qualify for a discounted price". . . . Well . . . let's just say he didn't get it.  He just said "OK I'll let it pass this time but the next time I come in I want the discount"  Then he left the store."

"Let me just say . . .  this guy is a REALLY BIG BLACK DUDE, well over 6 feet tall.  I don't want to get into any kind of confrontation with him and the police are not really quick to respond in my area.  Now. .  I know you are pretty good with words . . and . . I was hoping you might give me a script to quickly explain what a "VOLUME DISCOUNT" is."  


Harv - "Is his name Leroy?

GUEST - "Why . . . Yes!!"

Harv - "JUST GIVE HIM THE DISCOUNT!!!"

GUEST - "Hi Mr. Harvey.  I feel so privileged to write to you.  I am a fan and have enjoyed each and every Turntable you've published over the last couple of years. You must have a big heart to be familiar with all the old love songs, and, I think you just might be able to help me with my current relationship issue."
  
"I've been going with my boyfriend for 3 years and love him dearly.  He's not perfect though.  For example;  The landlord called yesterday and told me the rent was 3 months overdue and he was getting impatient.  His work called 3 times last week wondering where he was. . .  Let's just say I'm getting a tiny bit concerned.  

I've been totally faithful in our relationship and want to spend the rest of my life with him.  I am now 6 months pregnant and would like to get married."  "He, on the other hand, has not been faithful!  He has been so terribly unfaithful to me over the years that . . . I'm not even sure that the baby I'm carrying . . . is his!!!  


Try as I may, I have been unable to convince him to quit his philandering!  Yesterday he came home with acase of beer and told me that next week he plans to have a young girl move in with us for a while!  He told me to clean things up really nice because he wants to make a good impression on her.  Then he said I would be sleeping in the guest room for a while . . .  ALONE!"

"What do you think I should do???"

Harv - "Well lets see . . .  I am not really in the relationship business . . but . . 


EVERYTHING LOOKS GOOD TO ME!!  

Quit worrying and Hang in there . . . He'll probably change!"

Till Next Week

Harv
