HAUSMANN'S--BITTERSWEET MEMORIES
 

Sadly, not all the memories of Hausmann's are pleasant ones. See below pic.

Designed merely as a tender tribute to a fellow peddler----the esteemed titan of the A.H.Fox Gun Co. Sales Dept., Adolph Roll---- and where did it get me? Brutal heckling, the vitriol flowing like the Susquehanna at flood tide, abusive and demeaning. The incessant catcalls from the Parker camp: "Is that A-ROLL or A-Hole" ….lookout, here comes "A-hole" reverberating across the verdant rolling terrain of the Endless Mountains. I can still see their faces, the summer camp bullies spewing their venom! A crestfallen Toolman had to dispose of his FITASC approved Bermuda's, the groin area charred beyond recognition, the painful aftermath of chestnuts roasting a wee bit too long. Not to worry "for he who giveth, can taketh" and besides, REVENGE is ever so sweet!!!!
