Thanks.
Never knew I needed all these things.
I received a new catalog in the mail:
Dr. Leonard’s
Thumbing thru I see lots of ‘as seen on TV’ type things.
Bunion relievers, compression socks ( I need those). Clothing easy to put on. Lotsa Velcro things.
Oh, my! Then I get to page 38.
Shocked, I tell you what! Well, I never…
This innocent, non-descript catalogue has WHAT?, for sale?
My wife wound up on the mailing list for the “Pyramid Collection” catalog, or, as we call it, the “Stevie Nicks Collection” – it’s full of funky blouses and skirts, New Age-y decor, crystals, tarot decks, etc. A few months ago, I took a glance through the catalog, and noticed that there were also several pages of similar sorts of “wellness devices.”
I usually throw the catalogs and magazines in a box for the grandkids to cut up and play paper dolls.
I can imagine them making a Barbie bordello with this one.
I’m gonna have to be careful what I put in the box, from now on
“That’s a fascinating obelisk y’all have outside of Barbie’s house, there, kiddos. The way the sun is coming in through the windows … it … almost appears to be vibrating !”
I wonder if Dr. Leonard and Harriet Carter are in cahoots?
I’m gonna feel different when I go visit my old Auntie in the senior living facility.
No wonder peeps are so happy there. I thought they were putting goofy juice in the water.

In my experience, if you order from one of them you will soon be bombarded by most of the rest of them.
There was a family of catalogs I looked forward to every year. “Things You Never Knew Existed” (home to every conspiracy known to humankind), “The Lighter Side,” and “Betty’s Attic.” A couple of years ago, the parent company gave up the ghost with no warning.
I grieved. I got a lot of really cool t-shirts from those catalogs!
Well, another company decided to pick up the fallen banner–it may have been the Harriet Carter bunch. I didn’t give the reissued catalogs a full perusal to see if the same wild whacked out goods are still offered.
Oh, BTW: if you see a gizmo in the Dr Leonard’s catalog that looks like the greatest thing since sliced bread (actually, it is a long-handled lotion dispenser so you can apply lotion to your back), DON’T bother. It is very cheaply made, and no matter what you do, the damned thing won’t work.
