Text from still-in-Baltimore daughter - her preparation for Sandy involved groceries, batteries, and ammo. Yeah, that's my girl for sure. She went to Dick's because Wal-Mart, while cheaper, requires that you fill out form with name, address, etc, to buy ammo in Baltimore and she has 4 letter words to describe that. Text I received describing conversation at Dick's:
Daughter: I need some 12 gauge shells.
Clerk: Hunting?
Daughter: Sure, or impending storm.
Clerk: Here, if you shoot him in the face with these he'll be blind for life and his children will get a good lesson not to be like daddy.
Obviously, not all residents of Maryland are stupid.
*blink blink*
ReplyDeleteA store clerk said that? Dang. I'd DEFINITELY buy from that store more often!
Yeah, that's worth a return trip right there.

ReplyDeleteI suspect that a lot of people in the city are getting real tired of the wilding that's going largely unreported by a Blake-complicent media.
DeleteThat's a good thing to hear across that counter.
