Wearing shorts in the winter?
As I took my daughter to work today my eyes were met with the strangest sight at least for me. I saw several people wearing shorts! now if this was summer the sight would not have been so unusual but as it was freezing outside! I could not completely wrap my mind around the concept of people walking around in shorts and wife beater's shirt! And yes! I said wife beater shirt which was worn by a black man at Kroger's what is up with that!? And he had shorts on as well. Did a memo go out that I missed saying that when the temperature goes down we are to get our summer ware out!?
Come on people! I can be just as hot natured as the next person but today was not the day for that behavior. And yes, I do understand that we have the polar bear club people but I did not think they were here in Tennessee. Maybe I am making much to do about nothing but I just wanted to share my experience today and hey! is that not what a blog site is all about? And I have always wanted to become something of a writer so what better site to start at but here?
Will have more to write about later.....
Peace Out!

Art Copying Life?
I can now understand why we have so many reality shows because somethings people say and do cannot not be put in a script! I was talking to an employee of Sam's one day as we were standing over by their return section and I asked him about one of the products that looked fine to me and I wondered why it was returned and he said the story would shock me if he told it and I asked him to tell me anyway I was feeling in a daring mood.
He told me that a customer came in to purchase a computer but brought it back the next day complaining that it did not have Internet. The customer went on to explain that they computer when they bought it said that it had Internet connection and wi-fire the poor employee was un-done and tried to explain to the customer that the computer was Internet ready but that he had to have an Internet service at his house! The customer looked confused and told the employee that the computer said it had wi-fi as well but that it was not working at his house.
By now the employee was pulling his hair out trying not to make the customer angry he once again tried to explain that yes sir the computer has wi-fi capabilities and if you take it to any McDonald's or coffee shop you can get on the Internet needless to say the customer wanted his money back for buying a faulty computer.
The sad part is folks I did not make this up it really happened and we thought Wal-mart had stories to share but Sam's is part of Wal-mart so I guess some customer's spill over. Welcome to the real world.

Gas
Here we go again! Is it just me my friends or has the oil companies started this mess! of raising gas prices again!? And the strange part is that they did not even see fit to tell the general public as to why. Although I did hear something on the news about global deman! What is that!? Common people like you and me are losing jobs daily so how are we going to survive higher gas prices to go out and look for jobs? Even public transpotation will have to raise their prices so how will we save by doing that? 2011 will prove to be a very interesting year indeed.
