Brad, my youngest son works at the mall here as a  security officer... and 
the stories he tells are sad and hysterical at the same  time.  It doesn't 
have to be Christmas for me to be a Scrooge about  shopping.  I wish Wal Mart 
delivered!

I'm not  a shopper either :). I'm way in for the 
on-line instead of in-line.  Gettin' dangerous out 
there to shop, grannies pepper spraying folks  
reaching for boxes on the shelves, playing bumper 
carts down thin  isles, and an oasis of good cheer 
when someone let's you pass through the  line 
realizing you aren't cutting in line :). Bah  humbug.
