Tandy Leather asked for addresses and phone numbers every time, back in the day, painstakingly entering them on a three layer carbon form. I always wondered what they did with the data? One time an old country boy gave his address as “Mommytown.” Since I speak fluent redneck I understood that he meant “Miamitown.” The poor clerk did not understand and kept making him repeat it. The country boy was getting frustrated and kept saying, “MOMMYtown!” louder and louder. Finally he said, “MOMMY -TOWN! Just like, “MOMMY!” Of course this did not help the clerk at all.
