Homer's Hardware Store

The Debbie Train was first observed in Homer's Hardware (which Debbie affectionately referred to as "Homersexual's) in about 1985-ish. At that early stage of the phenomenon, she would be more accurately described as a stalker or a shadow. That's how it seemed to me when I realized that there was this somewhat odd person following me in the hardware store. It seemed even more that way when she asked me if I worked at the place where I actually did work. Hmmm. Later that day, she showed up at my house (she knew where I worked and where I lived) with a young tree, I believe it was a fig. In spite of the bizarre beginnings (I didn't seek a restraining order) Debbie and I became good friends.
Happy 50th!
