I went over to the local Bass Pro Shop to get a small 9mm handgun for home/personal protection.
When I was ready to pay for the pistol and ammo, the cashier said, "Strip down, facing me."
Making a mental note to complain to the NRA about the gun control wackos running amok, I did just as she had instructed.
When the hysterical shrieking and alarms finally subsided, I found out she was referring to how I should place my credit card in the card reader!!!
As an intelligent senior citizen, I do not get flustered often. But this time, it took me a while to get my pants back on.
I've been asked to shop elsewhere in the future. They need to make their instructions to seniors a little more clear.
I still don't think I looked that bad.

A friend recently got his permit, and wrote me about his experience at BPS:
Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

That was hilarious. And no my instructor didn't teach us the rules of the Wally Walk. I didn't know about that until after I joined this forum......
