Grandpa Hedges says he al

ground even if his mind gits
flighty.

Nothin's as aggravatin’ as
gittin’ socked with a paper wad
and not knowin* who done it.
Some kids that git off on
the wrong foot end up a big
heel.
Zot Klingers twins started
fight in* and Zol didn’t know
which one to spank.

Grandpa Hedges is gittin’

for Christmas is a new fly
swatter.

polish they wouldn’t seem so

Grandpa Hedges says, “If you
ask me how my youth was
spent, all my git up and go
has got up and went."
Don’t argue with your wife
while you’re drivin’, after all
