There is no part one. I was trying to be witty. I've an ISP again, but I won't be posting regularly. So I'm lumping everything I see into a series of shorts. Probably just one liners in some cases.
1.) Bad Name Choice: While in Ace Hardware trying to pick up some deck paint for mom, I overhear a conversation between a gentleman and the lady behind the counter. She's asking about the myriad of paint colors that he's picking up, to which he responds that he's painting the old hotel in town into a traditional colorful Victorian style. He comments on the name, which produces a laugh from myself and a few others. Of course he asks why, which prompts this response:
"You named it the Painted Lady right? You do know, that in Victorian times, that was another name for a prostitute right?"
His look of shock was priceless.
2.) Lather Rinse...: While returning an object at a Wal-Mart, I happened to watch a rather amusing exchange in front of me. This lady in her fourties was standing there quite upset at the associate. She was trying to get her money back because the hair dye she used turned her hands black. Yes. Black. Blue black I think, but I can't exactly remember the color she used. Either way, she claimed that there were no gloves in the box (they're on the instructions) and besides, the color did say that you could just lather it in, so why not use her hands? The manager simply told her that it'd just have to wear off, that there were gloves (he showed her) and there was nothing they could do.
3.) WTF? I didn't catch this whole one, I just happened to overhear it while picking up something for lunch at McDonalds. It's one of those things that I really want to know what happened, but will never find out.
MGR: (talking to someone on the phone.) Yeah. I don't know how he got it in there, but he did. Nice and tight too. Doesn't look like it's coming out any time soon either. Mind sending someone over to take a look at this?
