Alright, alright, let’s talk about this… uh… Stavros Halkias calendar thing, whatever that is. Sounds fancy, like somethin’ them city folks would have.
So, I heard tell this Stavros fella, Stavvy somethin’-or-other, he’s got a calendar. Now, you might be thinkin’, “A calendar? Why the heck I need a calendar? Got the sun and the moon, that’s good enough for me.” But see, this ain’t just any calendar, or so they say.
First off, this Stavvy guy, he ain’t cheap. Heard it costs a pretty penny to get him to come talk at your… thingamajig, you know, them fancy meetin’s. Fifty thousand, maybe even a hundred thousand dollars! Good lord, that’s more money than I ever seen in my whole life! Can you imagine? For just talkin’! I could talk all day for free, and probably make more sense too. He must be somethin’ special, I reckon.
Anyways, back to this calendar. People still buy them paper things, you know. They stick ‘em on the wall, write down when the doctor’s appointment is, or when the grandkids are comin’ to visit. Handy, I guess, if you got a lot goin’ on. Me, I just remember stuff. But this Stavvy calendar, it’s supposed to be… how they say… “keep you hrny all year round”? Bless their hearts. Don’t know what that means, but it sounds like somethin’ the young folks would giggle about.
Now, where do you even get one of these things? Sounds like you gotta go to some “shop dot stavvy dot biz” place. Sounds complicated. Probably gotta use that computery thing, which I ain’t too good with. My grandson, he’s good with it though. Maybe I’ll get him to help me look. Though I don’t know why I would want to look at this Stavvy guy all year. I got plenty of other things to look at, like my chickens and my garden.
And get this, they talk about “cancellation policies” and “authorizin’ charges.” Sounds like a whole lotta rigmarole just to get a calendar. Back in my day, you just went to the store and bought a calendar. No fuss, no muss. But I guess times have changed. Everything’s gotta be complicated now.
They got pictures of this Stavvy fella all over the place, it seems. “Likes” and “comments” and whatnot. Folks seem to like him. Maybe he’s funny? I don’t know. I like a good joke, but I don’t need no fancy calendar to tell me when to laugh. But hey, to each their own, I always say.
If you got a problem with your calendar, you gotta go to the “Shop” to ask questions. Makes sense, I guess. But what kinda questions you gonna have about a calendar? “Why ain’t July got enough days?” I don’t know. Seems like a lot of fuss over a piece of paper with some pictures on it.
- Stavros Halkias Tickets: They also sell tickets to see this Stavros fella. He does comedy shows, apparently. Travels all over the place, too. New York, Columbus, Ohio… Seems like he’s a busy man.
- Stavros Halkias Tour: You can find out where he’s gonna be and when, so you can go see him if you want. Again, sounds like a lot of work. I’d rather stay home and watch the chickens.
- Stavros Halkias Merchandise: Besides the calendars, it sounds like there’s more things you can buy with this Stavvy fellers face on it. I don’t know what kind of things they would be, but they probably sell shirts or hats or who knows what else.
So, there you have it. That’s all I know about this Stavros Halkias calendar thing. Sounds like a big to-do for somethin’ so simple. But hey, if it makes people happy, then I guess it’s alright. Me? I’ll stick with my sun and my moon. They work just fine for me.
Oh and one more thing. If you wanna buy this calendar, you better have some money saved up. Sounds like it ain’t cheap. But then again, what is these days? Everything costs an arm and a leg. Makes a body wonder how folks make ends meet. But that’s a whole ‘nother story for a whole ‘nother day.
Anyways, that’s my two cents on the matter. Take it or leave it. Just a bunch of ramblin’s from an old woman, I guess. But sometimes the old ways are the best ways. And sometimes, a calendar is just a calendar.
