Banner Day at City Hall?

Overheard this morning in line at Clayton's Banner Cleaners, comment from an anonymous City Hall spouse: "I don't know if he wants you to deliver his shirts to him or wants me to pick them up -- I know he was worried that it would be bad for him to get delivery, because, you know, this is the county and he's at City Hall in the city. I don't really want to say much more in front of other people..."

Reassurance from Banner employee: "Oh, it's no problem: we deliver to four or five people at St. Louis City Hall."

What was the author doing so far away from home? For dry cleaning?

If it is for quality, go to Marquard's, Hanley and Delmar, expensive but very good.

well, it's near work and was the only one I could find that could promise me a same-day turnaround for the husband's suit....which got awfully sweaty during a Saturday night dance-party wedding reception and was pressed (ha! little drycleaning joke) into service again today.
