"Excuse me, young man,” he said to the clerk, “do you happen to carry any special elixir for forgetting where you parked your car?"

The owl hooted again, startling a sleepy delivery driver who mistook it for his alarm clock. The pharmacist, rubbing sleep from his eyes, looked out and chuckled, saying, ‘Well, good morning, feathered friend! Guess you’re here for your daily prescription.’
