Show l by NANCY PEPPER Mealtime Menaces. The Thinker He works his way doggedly to the counter in the line (you're just a few behind him) and then pauses for Station Announcement, Announce-ment, or something. Seems he never can decide beforehand, so you have to wait until he makes up his alleged mind. But by that time the bell is about ready to ring. The Critic He doesn't like what you have on your plate and doesn't hesitate to tell you so in the most unappetizing term. Comparing your tapioca to fish eyes and your spaghetti spa-ghetti to worms doesn't help your appetite one bit. It doesn't help his popularity, either. The Sob Sister All during lunch period, when you want to relax and have fun, she insists upon pouring out her troubles to you. The only happy ending you can be sure of is the bell. The Whisperers Just your luck to sit next to two best friends who are in a confidential mood. That means they whisper furiously to each othei all through the meal, leaving you out in the cold completely to feel like an interloper. |
