I Was Just Thinking:
What's the deal with old ladies who pay with checks at the supermarket?

Do they go home and do a trial balance against their aged receivables to see how their month is going?

I can tell you how their month is going, down hill.

I had this lady pay with a check in front of me, then ask for change for $1.

See, she does have cash. So, if she has cash, why is she using a check?

Good thing we don't live in Europe, otherwise I'd have to wait an hour in line behind her while the cashier explained the euro to her.

And why do the doors in the supermarket say IN and OUT when you're inside?

I might want to go IN to the outside? Might I not?

And what's the deal with Dry Cleaning. If it's dry, how does it clean?
