Dear Tat,
I'm always hiding my inner self. I don't
really know if people would like the way I act if I let my
inner self loose. I need some advice. I'm tired of
pretending!
Hidden
Dear Hidden,
First of all, I need to know more
details. What is your inner self like and your outer self
like? Which do you prefer? Please write back for next
month's paper.
Tat
Dear Tat,
I have a limited amount of money to spend
on gifts this Christmas. What should I do? Where in town do
you advise me to shop at?
Limited
Dear Limited,
Shop where there are sales such as the
Co-op, or at rummage sales where you get the best deal of
all.
Tat
Dear Tat,
I have no one to celebrate the holidays
with. My friends have their own families to be with and I
don't think they would want me around. And I'm so far away
from my family. What should I do?
Lonely
Dear Lonely,
Talk to your friends about it. I'm sure
one of them will have a heart and take pity on
you.
Tat
Dear Tat,
Last Christmas I got socks for my
Christmas present from my grandparents, and also from my
aunties and my cousins. And from my friends too. Why socks?
Don't they get the hint that we like stylish things?! I
don't mean to be rude, but socks are lame. Should I tell
them how I feel or just keep hiding the socks I get under my
bed?

Dear Socks Sick,
Maybe they thought you really needed more
socks, so they got you socks for your Christmas present.
They're probably still back in the 80's, so you should just
use the socks you got for Christmas and make them feel happy
you're using the stuff they got for you.
Tat
Dear Tat,
Around the holidays when people start
buying gifts, I don't sell as much as my competition does.
Is it my prices, or is it me?
Manager
Dear Manager,
It is probably your prices. I think you
should lower them so more people could buy things from your
store. Or you could order better looking stuff. Then maybe
more customers will be attracted by the stuff you have. I
suggest you order
black bull leaves. Lots of people chew black bull, and if
you do you'll probably
sell out.
Tat
Dear Tat,
My gram has this puppy whose name is "Sister," and it is
always scratching. Even though we give it baths, it still
scratches. Do you think I should put
it out of its misery?
Concerned
Dear Concerned,
Don't go too close to it. It might have
fleas or lice or pupiks. Throw it out in the cold and let
the fleas and lice die. Then bring it back in and let it
soak in a tub of warm water. If that doesn't solve your
problem, write back to me.
