Things I Know to be True about Herman(that get on my last nerve)
• He’s cheap– ‘Clearance’ is his favorite word– ‘Coupon’ is his second favorite word– There’s never been a red sticker
that he can walk away from– He buys and buys and buys - and
hides his treasure ‘in the closet’• He wears just about any article
of clothing to paint• He will clean anything with any
type of towel lying around• He can fix anything – even when
it shouldn’t be fixed• One moment of weakness
