Okay, she just left, I can talk now.

WOOT, WOOT, WOOT!!! Met with Bert from Trippy Tips yesterday afternoon with my grievously wounded Donut cradled lovingly in sterile gauze which was wrapped in 9 layers of bubble wrap securely encased in a hermetically sealed .30 caliber ammo can.

After the 32 minutes it took to actually gain access to the patient Bert did a careful and thorough examination. (I found it strange that he had a stethoscope hung around his neck and a pair of latex gloves and tube of KY Jelly in the pocket of his white lab coat but who am I to question the experienced care giver.)

Sick with worry over my little baby's prognosis my fears were assuaged when Dr. Bert compassionately looked up and assured me that he could restore my Donut to a perfect state of health. My screaming and jumping up and down with joy was apparently a bit disconcerting for a number of the people walking through the Walgreens parking lot.

Although I would never spare any expense when it comes to the health and welfare of a family member I still felt it prudent to inquire as to the approximate cost of the surgery. Memories of long ago, superior customer service flashed through my age ravaged brain as he informed me that he stands behind his work 100% and repairs customer mishaps at no charge. He further demonstrated his compassion by holding me upright as I weeped uncontrollably.

What I thought was an already perfect day was made even better when Bert used a two-wheel dolly to roll a refrigerator sized box out of the back of his van then opened it to reveal somewhere in the neighborhood of 45 to 50 thousand Trippy Tips in every imaginable color and design.

Bert invited me to closely examine the plethora of tips. Unfortunately I misinterpreted what he actually meant. The police were not amused to find me frolicking naked in the box full of custom glass tips but ultimately decided not to arrest me and apologized for the repeated use of the taser after Bert explained the situation. (Wussie cops and their sissy tasers, I would have beat me with a nightstick or a lead filled sap. Kids... huh.)

After four hours of carefully inspecting each and every tip I made my choice, a small light and dark green smallish Donut with three bumps of glass on each edge and a large mouth to facilitate easy dripping plus a green with bluish-purple streaks running from mouth to base tear drop design. This one was also chosen for it's generous sized mouth for ease of use while dripping. As we speak, okay, I'm typing, you're reading, I'm using the tear drop on a ProVari to drip some Fried Banana.

I must say that my visit with Bert was totally enjoyable. It is nice indeed to find a business owner who not only understands the importance of customer service but does everything in his, (her) power to deliver it. Just as I have not bought my last Reo because of Rob I can honestly say I haven't bought my last Trippy Tip because of Bert. (I just wish he didn't live so damn close.)

For those of you who already have Trippy Tips this has pretty much been an exercise of preaching to the choir, for those of you who have never tried one, they are certainly worth your serious consideration, it's safe to say you won't be disappointed.

Oh, BTW, Pietro, I extended your greetings to Bert. Apparently he is very familiar with you and is aware of one of your peculiarities that the rest of us were ignorant of. I can only surmise that you spend a great deal of time crying since he constantly referred to you as an SOB.
