Craaawllll....

Chapter 88
'Peanut Butter Sam' took a picture of the morning sky. He came in and showed the picture to Simmy.
"Ha, ha, a cottage cheese sky!" Simmy laughed.
Sam, not having read 'Good to Great' wasn't comprehending the analogy.
"Well, I'm off to buy some wire to hang all our displays," he said.
"Could you turn the oven on to 350 degrees, please. I want to bake some cookies and have them ready for anyone that may pop by even as we're setting up today."
"Sam was in a 'I can barely crawl' because I'm afraid mode."
Simmy had asked him every day for the last month what he was so afraid of... he hadn't answered.
"I don't understand you! You have nothing to lose, quite literally, so what is the problem?" Simmy had demanded.
"I'm so 'out of my comfort zone,'" he had admitted.
The man looked fairly well petrified.
"I can see why God made women give birth," Simmy muttered.
"What was that?" Sam asked.
"I said, 'Your job today has lots of worth."
"Here's your quote of the day, Sam... 'Nay, twasn't being a warrior that wore me out. Twas waiting to be a warrior.'"
Sam straightened his shoulders and went to buy some wire.
