Absolutely useless facts about you nobody cares about
I was in Apex Monday and stopped into a Trader Joe's. Needed some food stuff so, why not?
Error.
There are 3 times the humans in the store than I estimated. I deal with it. Park the trolley out of the way and then it's just another search and return mission. I finished my list items and was slowly poking in the aisles that have all the cool small sweet treats stuff. I was looking for soft black liquorish. I've had good luck with that at Trader Joe's before. As I am gently, quietly, and calmly scanning the area for my sweet treat there is a TJ employee stocking a box of stuff. As I am scanning for the tub of black liquorish in the shape of Scottie Terriers, those are money from experience, a new character enters.
White, female, 5' to 5' 2" tall, between 65 and 106 years old, frail, thin, and the perfect stereo typical New England Jewish human.
She walks briskly up to shelf stocker worker person and without not so much as a how do you do she says, "Do you have Nigerian Dark Chocolate?"
Worker person looks to the chocolate area that's right there to her left, scanning.
Little Miss Ancient person says, "Do you know what I'm talking about?!"
Worker person gestured to the area she was scanning and begins, "Here is our international choc ..."
Little Miss Ancient person storms off.
I tried to hang back to slyly ask Worker person all campy, "I'm looking for Nigerian Dark Liquorish. Do you even know what I'm talking about?" I just could not find an opening.
Stalking for comedic relief should not be outlawed.

Thank you for your concern Paul. Yes she is well. All under a doctor's care and by intent. It has been a GREAT help for her Rheumatoid and spinal stenosis. Still a lot of chronic pain. But much better mobility.

A lot of people think they know what a pipe looks like and how it's smoked, but few have seen one in real life and their minds eye gets it wrong.
So, to promote good art, smoke yer pipe in public.

My wife hung that monstrosity in the front parlor. Apparently, that and a rabbit wearing a monocle remind her of me.

I have an almost identical piece, only it's a shelf hanger.
