Trip to WalMart

[Blondie Gal]

Yesterday I was at my local WalMart buying a large bag of Purina dog chow for my loyal German Shepherd dog, Harley, and was in the check-out line when a woman behind me asked if I had a dog.

What did she think, that I had a pet elephant?

So, annoyed at her stupidity, on impulse I told her that no, I didn't have a dog, I was starting the Purina Diet again.

I added that I probably shouldn't, because I ended up in the hospital last time, but that I'd lost 50 pounds before I awakened in an intensive care ward with tubes coming out of most of my orifices and IV's in both arms.

I told her that it was essentially a Perfect Diet, and that the way that it works is, to load your pants pockets with Purina Nuggets and simply eat one or two every time you feel hungry. The food is nutritionally complete so it works well and I was going to try it again.

(I have to mention here that practically everyone in line was now enthralled with my story.)

Horrified, she asked if I ended up in intensive care because the dog food poisoned me. I told her no, I stepped off the curb to sniff a poodle's ass and a car hit me.

I thought the guy behind her was going to have a heart attack . . .

I was standing behind you on the curb, that wasn't a poodle it was a schnauzer

I would have loved to be there to see the woman's facial expressions as you were telling your story. I bet you told it so credibly, that the woman felt so embarrassed to challenge you. What an interesting Walmart escapade....
