We at your neighborhood Food Festival supermarket would like to apologize to all the many disappointed customers who informed us that they were unable to drink the portable stick vacuums advertised in the Food Festival Finds section on page 7 of our Thursday circular. Yes, it is true that our loyal man Herb, who once again was in charge of the circular this week, inadvertently left the R out of the word “portable,” which caused understandable misapprehensions among the readers of the description. When we use the word “understandable,” we are treating our customers with that generous assumption of good will which has always characterized our policy toward our friends and neighbors. As for the small number who threatened us with lawsuits, we should like to remind them that, if they do pursue legal remedies, they will find themselves in a courtroom where they will be required to persuade a judge that they really are as stupid as they claim to be, which might be a stretch even for some of you yokels.
