Wednesday...Uh, Something

Two men are in a submarine, both are wearing white hats so are they both captains? Anyway, they are looking at a map and one of the men says "I pinpoint our position at the mouth of the Bering Sea. Shall we up-periscope and have a peek?" The periscope goes up, coming out of a manhole in the city as several people and a couple cars watch.
January 13, 1966
That is a very long periscope. I'm also worried that if the rest of this submarine is anything like it's navigation system, then it's about to implode, crushing the occupants like those morons who tried to visit the Titanic.

Brutus is visiting Rapid Ruth's Dry Cleaners. Brutus is angry. "What do you mean my suit won't be ready until Friday? When I dropped it off yesterday, you said it'd be done in 24 hours!" "That right," Rapid Ruth says. "I only work eight hours a day, you know."
It looks like Ruth is just by herself (kudos for Brutus for patronizing a small business) so 24 hours seems like a stretch. Even going to a dry cleaner chain getting 24 hours is difficult. I think you usually have to pay extra for that. I don't know. I don't dry clean anything anymore.

Ruth also looks very tired, so maybe calm your butt, Brutus.
