...And you are two of them!

The other day Louise and I went the grocery store.  When I went to get a cart, this lady walked up next to me.  She was wearing a Baltimore Ravens Cap.  This being the day after Baltimore beat the Denver Broncos in the football playoffs.  I thought "gee this lady is brave".  Later I pointed this lady out to Louise.  Meanwhile we saw people talking to themselves or their blue tooth, a very oddly dressed person (unintentional dread locks, house coat and slippers?), and several people who were pushing the envelope of acceptable gorcery store behavior.  So when we got to the checkout Louise and I started our shtick.  Louise was arranging our items onto the conveyer (in a very logical order).  I decided to re-arranges them into new more organic order.  Then Louise went on to help supervise the loading of the grocery bags, (thus enforcing a logical order at the backend).  I then inserted onto conveyer a Led Zepplin CD.  (Which by the way if you really want to feel old buy a CD at either a grocery store or Starbucks.  Whatever happened to "Record Stores"?  I mean Record Stores use to be a great place to hang out and meet people!  How exactly do you meet people at the iTune store?)  So Louise tells the lady checking us out, "Boy you have some characters in here today".  To which she replied "And you're two of them."  Hi Five that!
