Original Toronto Star caption: Geez, why do you figure these two guys look so grumpy? Do you suppose the festival's trying to force them into tuxedos for the gala world premiere of their fantastical new rock 'n' road film? Naw, they'd probably just tell the fest of pound salt.

Doreen MacDonald picked up a toaster from a pile of battered appliances in the Qeen St. E. Soup-to-nuts junk store run by Jack Himself Cohen. One dollar. Himself said. Does it work? Doreen asked. I don't know. Why don't you plug it in and find out? All I do is sell as is. You won't plug it in? No. Doreen paid the $1 and once again proved Himself's credo: I don't polish anything. I learned my lesson when I polished the $25 special finish off a candelabra early in business. Since then I sell everything just as it is. [Incomplete]
