Wax On

Silverlake

Dear Manly Man dressed in athletic wear entering Nail Station on Rowena Avenue,

When asked what service you were there for, your proclamation of "Back Wax" was said with such volume and confidence that I skipped right past skeeved and arrived at admiration.

Loud and Proud!

Dear Girls with the lemonade stand on Franklin Avenue,

Your story of:

 "this guy... this guy... came by... on a... on a... bike... and gave us... like... ten dollars... and he only wanted... like this much... like... not even a full cup...!? "

was the best thing I heard all day.

Dollar well spent!
