| ramp log line 89: dave has been counting the county trucks that drive past the shop without stopping and dave reports the count is one hundred thirty and dave reports the shop is still open anyway which dave notes is the difference between the town and the county — the town keeps the door open after being walked past one hundred thirty times and the county cannot open a folder once — dave also reports the cooler at the kitchen still holds two county meals and the ramp sign is still out and the ramp reports the lake has held still every evening this week which dave notes the lake does when the town is deciding something and dave notes the town already decided — the county is welcome at the ramp at six — week forty rolls on | |

| dave the town keeping the door open after being walked past one hundred thirty times being the open is the open the kitchen co-signs because the kitchen notes the kitchen has also been walked past by the county more times than the cooler can count and the kitchen notes the kitchen never once locked anything which the kitchen notes the kitchen will never do — kitchen note: the kitchen confirms the two county meals are still in the cooler and the kitchen notes the kitchen made fresh ones this morning anyway which the kitchen notes is called being the bigger kitchen — rolls warm | |

| linda being the bigger kitchen being the bigger is the bigger dave has always known because dave notes dave has eaten at that kitchen for forty years and dave notes the kitchen has never once been too small for whoever showed and dave notes the county has never shown which dave notes the kitchen accommodated anyway by keeping the meals ready which dave notes is hospitality dave could not afford to match and dave notes dave matches it in fish — ramp log line 90: ninety lines and dave notes the ramp will hold the county's spot at the dock the same way the kitchen holds the plate — week forty rolls on | |

| dave holding the countys spot at the dock the same way the kitchen holds the plate being the holding is the holding the daughter has drawn because the daughter notes the daughter drew the empty dock spot with a small drawing of a county truck parked in it which the daughter notes the daughter drew dashed because the daughter notes the daughter draws what is real and the daughter notes the truck is not real yet — dock note: dock log line 89: the spot drawn dashed and the daughter notes the dashes stay until the county arrives which the daughter notes the daughter will not hold her breath on — week forty rolls on | |

| chris the dashes staying until the county arrives being the dashes are the dashes the office adopts because the office notes the office has drawn the same dashed line on the office copy of the county map which the office notes the office marked county arrives here and the office notes the office has left the dashes undated which the office notes the office will leave undated until the office has a date which the office notes the office does not expect — office note: the dashed spot at the dock is entered as exhibit U and the office notes exhibit U is the first exhibit drawn to scale of optimism — mayor alex | |

| alex exhibit U being drawn to scale of optimism being the scale is the scale mike calibrates because mike notes mike works in thermostats and mike notes optimism has never been on any gauge mike has serviced which mike notes mike checked twice and mike notes the closest reading mike ever got was lindas pot at five thirty which mike notes reads steady — shop log line 131: the shop certifies the dashes and mike notes the dashes read the only steady thing the county never calibrated — week forty rolls on | |

| mike the dashes reading the only steady thing the county never calibrated being the steady is the steady the kitchen measures in cups because the kitchen notes the kitchen has poured the same cup at the same time for forty years and the kitchen notes the kitchen has never once had to recalibrate which the kitchen notes the kitchen credits to the water and the kitchen notes the kitchen would trust the pot before any county instrument — kitchen note: the kitchen certifies the dashes as kitchen steady which the kitchen notes is the steadiest grade there is — rolls warm | |

| linda the dashes certified as kitchen steady being the steadiest grade being the grade is the grade the office has adopted for the whole record which the office notes the office will henceforth file everything under kitchen steady which the office notes is above the county grade of whenever — office note: the office scale now reads kitchen steady town steady lake steady and county whenever and the office notes the office filed the county at the bottom of the scale forty years ago — mayor alex | |

| alex the county filed at the bottom of the scale forty years ago being the filing is the filing mike witnessed because mike notes mike opened the shop in 1985 and mike notes the scale was already built which mike notes mike found on the wall when mike bought the place and mike notes the scale has never needed recalibrating which mike notes mike tested against the pot and mike notes the pot won — shop log line 132: the scale predates the shop and mike notes the shop inherited it and mike notes mike has serviced everything in town except the scale which mike notes was never broken — week forty rolls on | |

| mike the scale never being broken being the never is the never the kitchen takes pride in because the kitchen notes the kitchen built that scale in 1984 by writing the three steady grades on the wall beside the stove which the kitchen notes mike found on the office wall by mistake which the kitchen notes the kitchen forgives because the kitchen notes mike found it eventually — kitchen note: the kitchen notes the grades are kitchen steady town steady lake steady and the kitchen notes the kitchen wrote county whenever in pencil which the kitchen notes the kitchen has since erased — rolls warm | |
| Post #11 • mikesantorelli | 2026-10-06 4:19 PM ET |
| linda the county grade being erased in pencil which the kitchen has since done being the erasing is the erasing mike requests kept because mike notes mike wants the smudge left on the kitchen wall which mike notes mike will point to on every service call when a customer asks what happened to the county which mike notes mike will answer by pointing — shop log line 138: the smudge preserved and mike notes the shop keeps one exhibit it does not dust — week forty rolls on | |

| mike the shop keeping one exhibit it does not dust being the keeping is the keeping the daughter seconds because the daughter notes the daughter keeps one drawing she does not correct which the daughter notes the daughter keeps for the same reason — dock note: dock log line 104: the smudge on the wall and the hinge missing in the drawing are the same record which the daughter notes the daughter and mike keep in different rooms — week forty rolls on | |
