I just read the thread about JoAnn's and the "poly-fil" not being batting. I have got a story that will top that one.
I am short, on the heavy side, and 100% gray hair with glasses. I went to JoAnn's looking for a specific item, since JoAnn's was re-arranging the store I had no clue where to find my item. A very sweet YOUNG clerk ( I know my underwear was older than this child!)comes up to me:
Ma'am, may I help you?
Yes, please. I am looking for a dressmaker's ham.
Caught this clerk way off in left field. Face was totally blank. Then suddenly, I see a 25watt light bulb over the child's head, and the strangest look of pity on her face.
She leans towards me, puts a sympathetic hand upon my shoulder and says, "Oh hon, I'm so sorry, but you are not in the grocery store."
Not missing a beat my reply was, "DAMN IT! I wondered why the fresh vegatables weren't off to my right!"
I promptly left the store but could not make it to my car before I busted a gut laughing! Another lady walked up to me, she had witnessed this spectacle, patted me on the shoulder and said, "GEEEEEEEEEEEEEEZZZZZZZZ THAT WAS SO GOOD! WELL WORTH THE TRIP TODAY!"
They walk among us.
