Joyce’s Boyscout Story
Nicky –
Since you asked…. here is the Story of Joyce & her Eagle Scout “boyfriend”
One day we were biking and we ended up in Washington Crossing at Colonial Market.
We came upon Boy Scouts there selling something, popcorn I think. We started talking
We came upon Boy Scouts there selling something, popcorn I think. We started talking
to them & the one kid was an Eagle Scout so naturally we were interrogating him
about what it takes to be an Eagle Scout & where he was going college….
blah blah blah. We were done with our rest stop & you know me –
I HAD to get a picture of Joyce with Mr Eagle Scout.
A couple weeks later there was an article in the Bucks County Herald about the Eagle Scout
we had met. I knew it was him because they had his picture & they talked about the projects he
completed just like he told us about. SO…….being Helen…. I clipped the article & wrote a letter
to Joyce (on Choco-Cat Stationery) as if I were the Eagle Scout. I just said how it was nice meeting her & thought she might like to read the article the Herald featured. THEN I mailed it “Helen Style” to Joyce with stickers all over the envelope but no return address. Joyce gets the letter & thinks “HOW did this kid get my address?”. She thought it was strange he
sent the article about himself & even stranger about the Choco-Cat Stationery & “fancy envelope”.
Since I had no return address she googled his name & was trying to find more info & was thinking
about writing back to him!! I forgot I even sent the letter & a week or more later I said – Hey Joyce – Did you happen to get a letter from your Eagle Scout boyfriend?? Well — needless to say she was embarrassed she thought it was REAL & I actually think she is still pissed about me messing with her….. OF COURSE – every time we talk about the “incident” we laugh our asses off – because really –
How FUNNY is that story? The only thing better is if I got a picture of the envelope & stationery. Joyce is very gullible & we have tricked her on other things. Sometimes she gets kinds of mad but
in the end we always LAUGH š I hope the story made you SMILE š
