The Halo Story, by Bob and Sue Ramsay

Once upon a time, there were two couples Janet and Brian and Sue and Bob who were the best of friends. Brian and Janet were renowned for their keen sense of fashion.











One day Janet decided to try a new fashion style called the “Halo”. It was remarkable. Soon word started to get out about this stunning new accessory that not only looked very haute couture but was the latest in techno-fashion. Everyone knew she was an angel, and this confirmed it.

Bob and Sue were not happy. Janet had made a fashion leap, and they felt left behind and wanted one too. They got their own Halos, and loved them.
























Everyone noticed them, and they got the best seats at restaurants and events. Plus, the reception was great. They could pull in hundreds of channels, and they were also able to participate in the SETI project. As Bob and Sue were also considered cutting edge fashion plates, word started to get around. Of course, movie stars were the first to adopt the new fad.

It also restarted some acting careers.























Naturally, politicians wanted to ride the tide, thinking a Halo would impress super delegates.

"Is this what they mean by 'blue collar'"?

It even reunited old friends...

...and families.

The idea was transported overseas by a pilot...

...where the Halo was such a success, the inventor was knighted.

In Great Britain it was called the “Keeper of the Royal Perm”

Unfortunately, a controversy arose when a certain Governor got one--thinking this would surely qualify him to run for president.

The Supreme Court got involved and ruled eight to one against the Guv, after personally checking them out. (One justice thought it was a Democratic plot).
