SANDERSVILLE

G.A. Scheinoha

Somewhere there is a land of sanders. Not so much an actual geography as the territorial outlines, confines of a remote village.
The only ones who have been there, other than the sanders are the sandees; those whose lives needed a light touch up. Something more than the emery board applied to the cuticles down at the nail salon in the mall.
In some cases though, they might’ve taken the rubbing to new highs. . . or lows. The bottom sanders for example, lit into their jobs with such a relish, any visitors to the village had the darndest time sitting. Naturally, they had to be let go.
The belt sanders didn’t realize they were suppose to use long paper strips covered in grit, not file away at folks’ belts. Usually while they wore them. Again, the pink slips fell.
Fortunately, not everyone’s out of work. The rotary sanders remain busy spinning away. A bit lightheaded perhaps, but still gainfully employed.
