Airport Security
I sure miss the day when someone else pumped your gas for you - it was much cheaper back then.
Working as a secretary at an international airport, my sister had an office adjacent to the room where security temporarily holds suspects. One day security officers were questioning a man when they were suddenly called away on another emergency. To the horror of my sister and her colleagues, the man was left alone in the unlocked room. After a few minutes, the door opened and he began to walk out. Summoning up her courage, one of the secretaries barked, "Get back in there, and don't you come out until you're told!" The man scuttled back inside and slammed the door. When the security people returned, the women reported what had happened. Without a word, an officer walked into the room and released one very frightened telephone repairman.

They ran through a huge thunderstorm, up hills, through mud, over fire and up over obstacles. Alina told Uncle Andyʼs Digest that it was freezing that day, but still a blast! These two warriors beat over 9,000 of the 9,200 entrants. Congratulations, lady warriors! Alina is our good friend and advertiser from Northeast Bank. See her ad on page 66.

Five Kinds of Fruit
Signs at a church: Happy Hour Here Every Sunday
Submitted by Uncle Andy
In the middle of the table is a round food tray with five kinds of fruits on it. They are: a. Apple b. Banana c. Strawberry d. Peach e. Orange Which fruit will you choose? Please think VERY carefully and don't rush into it. This is great, I was astounded! Your choice reveals a lot about you! If you have chosen: a. Apple: That means you are a person who loves to eat apples. b. Banana: That means you are a person who loves to eat bananas. c. Strawberry: That means you are a person who loves to eat strawberries. d. Peach: That means you are a person who loves to eat peaches. e. Orange: That means you are a person who loves to eat oranges. I hope you find fulfillment in this new insight about yourself. May it bring you peace and understanding, tranquility and all that other profound stuff. Uncle Andy’s Digest ...witThravis & Jimbo

A pair of chickens walk into a public library, find the librarian and say, 'Buk Buk BUK.' The librarian decides that the chickens want three books, and promptly gives them some. Without further ado, the chickens walk out.
About an hour later the two birds march in, approach the librarian, looking very angry now and nearly shouting, 'Buk Buk Buk Buk Bukkooook!' The librarian is now starting to get worried about where all her stock is going. She decides to give them more books but also to follow them and find out what's happening. She followed them out of the library, out of town, and into to a park. At this point, she hid behind a tree, not wanting to be seen. She saw the two chickens throwing the books at a frog in a pond, to which the frog was kept repeating, "Rrredit Rrredit Rrredit..." Uncle Andy’s Digest ...withravis &T Jimbo

Havaiin Vacation
When I'm not in my right mind, my left mind gets pretty crowded.
Submitted by Jimbo
Morris and his wife Sherry were planning a vacation. They ended up in an argument.
Advertising made easy!
"It's pronounced 'Hawaii', I'm telling you!" Sherry said. "I never KNEW someone so stubborn! 'Havaii' is how it's pronounced!" he replied. And so it went, all the way to the vacation. As they got off the airplane, they passed by a man. Morris abruptly stopped his wife and turned to the man to ask, "Now that we're on the island, you can settle an argument between my wife and me. Is this 'Hawaii' or 'Havaii?'" "This is Havaii," the man replied.

Yesterday, a sweet little nugget said, “Mrs. Hall, your eyes sparkle like glitter.” And I thought, well, this boy already knows his way to a womenʼs heart. Today, as I was giving directions to the class about a quiz we were about to take and where to turn it in, I asked if there were any questions. A different little nugget raised his hand. Of course I asked him what his question was. He asked, “Mrs. Hall, did you know that your arm jiggled when you moved it like that?” Obviously, this little boy will be alone forever.

Featured at the Emmy’s!
What's the opposite of opposite?
The EllieAnna Purse Co., a Lewiston business offering purses, jewelry and other custom handmade accessories, was recently invited to have their product, the mini list-taker, included in the official gift bags that were handed out at the News and Documentary Emmy® Awards in New York City on Sept. 26. They provided 800 mini list-takers to be handed out to awards night attendees. The EllieAnna Purse Co. owner and founder, Sarah Legare received an email request inviting her company to feature an item in the gift bags. Legare decided on sending the mini list-takers, which have a 3” x 5” note pad, a spot for a pen and a separate pocket, because she Sarah Legare thought they would make the perfect gift for news and documentary professionals. “Friends, family and fans were incredible, sending me so many kind words and sharing in the excitement. I feel incredibly blessed to have had this opportunity given to me,” said Legare. EllieAnna Purse Co. is a home-based business with a staff of one—Legare. In order to prepare for the big night, Sarah took friends and family up on their offers to pitch in doing whatever needed to be done—cutting, ironing, sewing and prepping. Perhaps the most excited helpers were Legare’s children— son, Jaden, and Ellie & Anna Legare daughters, Ellie and Anna, for whom the company is named. Since it normally takes 20 minutes to produce one list-taker, Legare kept volunteers quite busy up to Sept. 22 when they drove the products to New Hampshire for their delivery to New York. For more information about EllieAnna Purse Co., please visit EllieAnnaPurses.com. The business is currently located on Main Street in Lewiston and is open by appointment. Founded in 2009 in Lewiston, the EllieAnna Purse Co. offers custom, handmade fabric handbags, wallets, pouches, key fobs and other accessories as well as sea glass jewelry.

Happy Halloween! One night of Halloween, two guys who were going through the cemetery perceived a tap-tap-tapping sound from a tomb what made them very scared. When they came closer to the tomb warily, they saw that the noise was made by an old man who was working skillfully with a hammer at one of the gravestones. They started to fill much better and asked the man, "Why are you doing this work in the middle of the night? You frightened us for a moment." The old man moaned and complained, "What else can I do? Those idiots spelled my name wrong!"

Dog House Rules Progression 1. Dogs are never permitted in the house. The dog stays outside in a specially built wooden compartment named, for very good reason, the dog house. 2. Okay, the dog can enter the house, but only for short visits or if his own house is under renovation. 3. Okay, the dog can stay in the house on a permanent basis, provided his dog house can be sold in a yard sale to a rookie dog owner. 4. Inside the house, the dog is not allowed to run free and is confined to a comfortable but secure metal cage. 5. Okay, the cage becomes part of a two-forone deal along with the dog house in the yard sale, and the dog can go wherever he pleases.
Business Spotlight Uncle Andy’s Digest sat down with Kutters Korner and got down to the nitty gritty of what they’re all about. The two owners are Kelly Giambra & Ann Dumais (as seen in the photo below left to right). They are a great family salon with excellent stylists, all with great personalities. They have fun with each other and with their clients. Kutters Korner is a full service salon offering: manicures, pedicures, massage, waxing, eyelash tinting, cuts, colors and foils. They are located at 14 Highland Springs Road in Lewiston. You can contact them at 786-4311. See their ad on page 63.
Q: Where & when did Kutters Korner start as a business? A: It started in 1983 on the corner of Hamel & Sabattus Streets in Lewiston. Hence the name Kutters Korner. Q: How did you get your start in this business,
6. The dog is never allowed on the furniture. 7. Okay, the dog can get on the old furniture but not the new furniture. 8. Okay, the dog can get up on the new furniture until it looks like the old furniture and then we'll sell the whole works and buy new furniture... upon which the dog will most definitely not be allowed.
Kelly?
A: I was a dental assistant for nine years. I knew that wasn’t my long term goal. I started cutting hair part-time from home and enjoyed it. I went to Mr. Richards Hair Styling Academy and made it official. My career began in 1999 at Kutters Korner, my one and only job in the industry! Q: Family? A: One daughter, Sydney who is 14.
Q: How did you get your start in this business, Ann? A: I knew in high school that I loved the arts and this fit right in to that train of thought for me. I attended Bernard School of Hair Fashion, then worked at another salon for nine years. I came to Kutters Korner in 1990, becoming part owner. I’ve been here ever since and I love it.
Q: Family? A: My hubby, Dan and I have been married almost 30 years. We have two great children, Val, 28 & Matt, 25.
Q: Hobbies? A: I love spending time with

Drapeau’s Costumes Celebrates 55th Halloween Drapeau’s Costumes of Maine, the states largest full service costume rental and retail shop is celebrating its 55th Halloween season. Even with the internet, big box, 6 week wonder stores and “polyester costumes in a bag”, Drapeau’s 4000 costume collection has been a consistent presence in Maine, providing hand-made, one of a kind theatrical quality costumes to Mainers looking for a unique, real fabric outfit that they are proud to wear. Drapeau’s also has plus sizes for men and women! Along with its large rental inventory, Drapeau’s offers a great assortment of costume accessories in their retail section. All excellent quality and more importantly, here year round, not just at Halloween. Halloween is Drapeau’s big season and our customers come back year after year looking for what’s new and for our personal touch – we are costumers and put your costume together from top to bottom, including jewelry, wigs, shoes and props. Our costumes rent for less that you would pay online for a costume with accessories. Drapeau’s costumes was originally started by Mrs. Drapeau in 1956 in her home and a small attached storefront on Main Street, later moving it to Maple Street in Lewiston. In 1972 Mrs. Doris Martin purchased the business, kept the name and started collecting the vintage clothing collection for use in the theaters. The third owner was Venise Berube in 1986. Mrs. Berube increased the size of the collection from 1800 to about 3500, making Drapeau’s Costumes the largest costume rental shop in Maine. The 4th and current owner is Kristine Scribner Cornish or Kris, a Lewiston native, LHS and UMO graduate who returned from working out of state to purchase Drapeau’s and drag it into the 21st century. Drapeau’s Costumes is located at 20 Main Street, Lisbon Falls, 7 minutes from 295 and 10 minutes from the Maine Turnpike in Lewiston. For more information check out our website www.costumesofmaine.com and like us on Facebook or give us a call at 353-2216.

Caddy Advice Submitted by Jimbo
In a Perfect World: A person would feel as good at 50 as he did at 17 and he would actually be as smart at 50 as he thought he was at 17.
Standing on the tee of a relatively long par three, a confident golfer said to his caddy, "Looks like a four-wood and a putt to me."
Ariens Deluxe Sno-Thro Series
The caddy argued with him a bit and suggested that he instead play it safe and hit a four-iron then a wedge. The golfer was insulted and proceeded to scream and yell at the caddy on the tee, telling him that he was a better golfer than that, and how dare the caddy underestimate his game.
®
• Unique Dual Belt drive system for maximum power and maintenance free operation • On-dash controls allow for control of height and trajectory of snow being thrown • Remote axle lock with a handle-mounted trigger allows Sno-Thro to turn on a dime • Heavy-duty aluminum XS Gear Case with alloy steel gears and L-3 synthetic severe-duty gear oil
So, giving in, the caddy handed the gentleman the four-wood he had asked for. He proceeded to top the ball and watched as it rolled about fifteen yards off the front of the tee. Immediately the caddy handed him his putter and said, "And now for one long putt..." In 1988, Elvis Presley's Shooting Star stage outfit was sold for $48,000, the highest price ever paid for a rock star's clothing up to that time. Trivia buffs: On August 7, 2008, his famous 1974 stage-worn peacock jumpsuit sold for $300,000. Uncle Andy’s Digest ...witThravis & Jimbo

SCHOONER’S ANNUAL CRAFT FAIR On Saturday, October 15th from 10am to 3pm the Schooner Estate’s Craft Group will host the third annual Schooner Craft Fair in the Village Green at 200 Stetson Rd. in Auburn (off Center St), and is open to the public. The ladies have been working on lots of crafts to sell on that day. (Hand knit hats, mittens, scarves, baby bibs, Christmas stockings and quilts). There will also be tables with hand made greeting cards and Christmas decorations, quilted handbags, pictured cards, scented candles and lots more.
THE PUBLIC IS INVITED TO THIS EVENT! Anyone interested in having a table at this event should contact Mark Prevost at 513-5055. All proceeds from this day are collected and given to Camp Sunshine, by the Tenants Council.
A defendant was on trial for murder. There was strong evidence indicating guilt, but there was no corpse. In the defense's closing statement the lawyer, knowing that his client would probably be convicted, resorted to a trick. "Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I have a surprise for you all," the lawyer said as he looked at his watch. "Within one minute, the person presumed dead in this case will walk into this courtroom." He looked toward the courtroom door. The jurors, somewhat stunned, all looked on eagerly. A minute passed. Nothing happened. Finally the lawyer said, "Actually, I made up the previous statement. But, you all looked on with anticipation. I therefore put to you that you have a reasonable doubt in this case as to whether anyone was killed and insist that you return a verdict of not guilty." The jury, clearly confused,retired to deliberate. A few minutes later, the jury returned and pronounced a verdict of guilty.

Scout and I LOVE the Doggz Inn!! Everyday Scout races in, hugs the staff and is ready to play with all of his friends. I am so grateful that Scout has such a caring and safe place to play, be social and have fun while I am at work. He has many adventures, he plays in the pool, walks the treadmill, gets all the hugs he could ever want and even has sleepovers! His little tail wags non-stop! I know this because my friends see him on the playground when they drive by and let me know that Scout is having the time of his life. Scout comes home a tired but very happy pup everyday. Thank you Rebecca and the entire Doggz Inn staff for introducing us to some amazing products, giving me peace of mind while I'm away, being so flexible with the schedule and spending such good quality time with Scout and all his friends! The Doggz Inn is AMAZING! We don't know what we would do without you!!

Andie and Bob Deering’s three children all have the same birthday – and they’re not triplets! Robert, 13; Kristie, 6; and Erin, 5, share their April 6 birthday simply by chance, the couple said. Robert Deering was nearly two weeks past due by the time he was born. Kristie was expected on April 15. Erin was due April 22. Linda Oman, the children’s grandmother, said three birthdays on one day gets pricey. “I need to save up for the birthdays,” she said.

For All Your Commercial & Personal Insurance Needs Electricity Maine is a locally owned electricity supply company dedicated to providing residents and small business owners with a lower rate on their monthly power supply. It is the objective of Electricity Maine to educate Mainers that they have the power to choose who supplies their electricity. Current delivery and monthly billing with Central Maine Power (CMP) and Bangor Hydro Electric (BHE) remains the same. The only change that customers will notice is the name of the power supplier on their bill and the monthly cost savings. All power delivery questions are still referred to the utility companies regarding power outages, billing questions or meter readings. Operating from their business office at 306 Rodman Road in Auburn, the experienced customer service staff is available to educate Mainers by answering questions relating to cost savings for homes and small businesses. Enrolling is easy, visit www.electricityme.com or call 1-866-573-2674. WHY CHOOSE Electricity Maine? We are proud to be among the first Competitive Electricity Providers to offer Maine people "The Power to Save". As a Maine owned Competitive Electricity Provider, we are dedicated to serving Mainers with discount electricity supply.

Empty Stomach Submitted by Jimbo
At a recent party one of Uncle Andyʼs friends asked him how many enchiladas he could eat with an empty stomach. Uncle Andy replied, "Seven." His friend asked him, "When you eat the first enchilada your stomach is no longer empty. Then how can you eat seven?" Impressed by this tricky question, as soon as he got home Uncle Andy asked his wife, Anna, "How many enchiladas can you eat with an empty stomach?"

Arm Injury The brilliant lawyer F. E. Smith once defended a bus driver against claims that his negligence had caused injury to a young man's arm. "Will you please show us how high you can lift your arm now?" Smith asked the plaintiff. The young man obediently raised his arm to shoulder level, his face contorted with apparent pain. "Thank you," said Smith. "And now, please, will you show us how high you could lift it before the accident?" The man's arm shot above his head.
Test Results Joey walked into his dad's study while his dad was working on the computer. "Dad," said Joey, "Remember when you told me you'd give me twenty dollars if I passed my math test?" Dad nodded. "Well," said Joey, "The good news is that I just saved you twenty bucks."

Interior & Exterior Painting LEAD Smart Renovator Certified Since 2003 A highway patrolman pulled alongside a speeding car on the freeway. Glancing at the car, he was astounded to see that it was Travis behind the wheel and he was knitting! Realizing that he was oblivious to his flashing lights and siren, the trooper cranked down his window, turned on his bullhorn and yelled, “PULL OVER!” “NO!” Travis yelled back, “IT'S A SCARF!” Uncle Andy’s Digest ...witThravis & Jimbo

The little girl was fascinated by the story, especially the part where the pumpkin turns into a golden coach. Suddenly she piped up, "Daddy, when the pumpkin turned into a golden coach, would that be classed as income or a long-term capital gain?"

King Henry VIII slept with a gigantic axe.
He was told he'd need a birth certificate, but his birth had never been officially registered. When he explained his dilemma to the passport agent, the response was less than helpful. "In lieu of a birth certificate," the agent said, "you can bring a notarized affidavit from the doctor who delivered you."

CCURATE CCOUNTING Another good day Uncle Andy’s Digesters! Where is this year going? We are already in October and that means that you are all packing into Gippers Sports Grill every time the Patriots hit the gridiron. Digesters, I may not be the brightest bulb in the box, but I am well aware football is primarily on Sunday and the likelihood that you are going to cook for the family the other six days of the week is slim to none. Just a thought brainiacs, oops, I mean maineiacs. If you don’t watch the Pat’s, still scoot over to Gippers to watch your Stanley Cup winners, your Boston Bruins. If you missed that one a few months ago, you should be ashamed of yourselves! While we are on a sports kick, I heard from a little birdie, probably a chickadee, that Backwoods Snowboards on Minot Ave. in Auburn has already geared up for the white fluffy stuff. Now you might think it is way too early to be thinking about sneaking to the peak or getting Lost in the Valley, but stop in and talk to Jeremy for the best deal south of the bunny slopes. Enough about sports for this month, I recently saw Kirstie Alley had put her home in Isleboro on the market for $2.35 million. I can’t seem to figure out why maybe Maine isn’t enough for “Kirstie Alley’s Big Life” but hey her loss. I was going to buy the house and then I realized I’m poor and I have a sneaking suspicion that $87.34, which is my life savings, might not quite cover the down payment. I’ll save up for a few centuries but if you buy it before I do, invite good old Miami Mike over for tea. The type they serve in Long Island or earl grey is fine too. Digesters I bid you adieu for this month! Until we meet again, in the pages of Uncle Andy’s Digest at least. Uncle Andy’s Digest ...witThravis & Jimbo
