Almost Laughable...

This is the time of the summer season when all of the moms are calling in for "last minute" appointments for the gem mine before the new school year begins. Their calls start off with a syrupy sweet : "Hello, I have heard so much about you, and I just want to bring a couple of my kids over to go gem mining for the afternoon". As soon as they are politely advised of the advanced reservation situation for the two hour block of time, they turn into the American Idol Contestants from hell! We've been told everything from these sweet and innocent moms. e.g: where to put the____________ gem mine... how far to put the____________ gem mine... and, one mom even suggested that we were ____________communists!
