What took ‘em so long?

I ran into our neighborhood Target last week to pick up a birthday card for my mom. If you can believe it, they actually have greeting cards with Dick Cheney on the front holding a rifle! I think it read “Have a blast on your birthday” or something like that. Wow, that was fast! No, I didn’t get it – I doubt my overly conservative mother would have found it to be very funny…although it would have been amusing to see her reaction.

I also bought some pants from the clearance rack at that same Target a few days later. The last price marked had been around $12, so I was surprised when the checker rang them up and said “That’ll be $6.66, please!” $6.66??!!?? Oh my…I’ve just purchased the cargo pants of the beast!
