I love COSTCO

When I on an event I call THE LOVELY MRS CIAK and talk to her about what is going on at COSTCO and how this store has these items etc. We both love shopping there.

Yesterday I was at COSTCO buying a large bag of Purina dog chow for my loyal pet, Biscuit, the Wonder Dog and was in the checkout line when a woman behind me asked if I had a dog. What did she think I had, an elephant? So, since I'm retired and have little to do, 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 IVs 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 a curb to sniff an Irish Setter's ass and a car hit us both.

I thought the guy behind her was going to have a heart attack he was laughing so hard.

Costco won't let me shop there anymore.

Better watch what you ask retired people. They have all the time in the world to think of crazy things to say. :laugh: :laugh: :side: :silly: :woohoo: :woohoo: :silly: :side: :S :S>>>

Your making me hungry Jed. I've done a lot of fishing out of Destin. Up here in Ohio we don't get fresh fish, so that's a big deal to me.

Glad you had a good trip.>>>

You are so full of crap Chucky that your breath stinks......... :woohoo: :woohoo: Can't you even come up with some original stuff......like a valid CCC number?

JET>>>

Jeds back. How was your trip?>>>

Patty I understand the pain of the loss vicariously . With in the last few short years I have a few very dear friends that went through tragic losses. One was do to a betrayal of a spouse . Ended up with the shooting death of her son two grand children and daughter in-law . The predator interloper was also murdered. The other was a daughter greatly loved by her father died in child birth along with the grandchild. I was a painful heart breaking privilege to nurture confidence and love back through being there . These individuals lead productive lives now with a huge hole left by the loss. Patty it was just a joke . ;) I'm not that cleaver . The trips to COSTCO , Well that's a horse of a different color . I love talking to THE LOVELY MRS CIAK while shopping in COSTCO's around the country. Soon hopefully we will be together on these events . Cool very very Cool>>>
