That was the best comeback i ever heard and it didn't hurt anyone. You are one quick cookie on your feet, crashnquilt.
Wonder if the clerk ever figured out what it was?

A dressmakers ham looks like a ham but is filled with sawdust and covered with two different types of fabric so it can be used with satins and velvets.
Another name for it is Pressing Ham because you use it for pressing curves in garments. Hope this helps.
