THE BIG SALE….
July 19th, 2005
It was the day of the big sale. Rumors of the sale
(and some advertising in the local paper) were the main
reason for the long line that formed in front of the store
by 8:30, the store’s opening time.
A small man pushed his way to the front of the line, only
to be pushed back, amid loud and colorful curses. On the
man’s second attempt, he was punched square in the jaw, &
knocked around a bit, and then thrown to the end of the
line again. As he got up the second time, he said to the
person at the end of the line, “That does it! If they hit
me one more time, I’m not opening the store!”
