Refused service at the BORG

[Norman Hitt]

And I thought they joked about the guy who knows the boss' birthday.....

Nah, they really like to talk about the TWO guys that were looking for their wives.
They bumped into each other and the Old fellow said, pardon me, I wasn't paying attention, I was looking for my wife. The other said that's OK, I'm looking for my wife too. Old guy said, what's she look like? Other guy said. Oh she's 26 yrs old, 5' 6" tall with beautiful auburn hair, a great figure and Oh yes, she's wearing tight pink shorts, what's yours look like? Old guy said, never mind that now, let's find yours first.

Wow, I never heard of a snowbird going to Colorado for the winter.

I NEVER HEARD that either

Colorado gets some good winter weather, but it gets a lot of sun and warm days every winter too. You would have to live in Juneau (think cold, dark, cloudy rain forest with LOTS of snow in the winter) for 10+ years to appreciate the relative mild northern Colorado climate. Besides, I about keel over if it gets much over 70 degrees...

Hmm..mine won't get more than 25 feet from me any place that tools/lumber are sold.

Sounds like you got one of the smart models!

[David Epperson]

So I'm in my local BORG looking at some door knobs etc. etc. with the LOML the other day. I wandered over to the tool isle for a few minutes while she is making the final decisions. I went back to find her and she was gone. An employee asked if he could help me find anything, so I relied, "yes, my wife." Then he flat refused. "I don't think I can help you with that sir," he said.

The nerve...

Just find the cutest girl in the store and go talk to her....If your wife is like mine - THAT'S when she'll find YOU.

Hope you are taking advantage of the New Belgium while you are in Fort Collins.

It's pretty good, but the Alaskan Winter Ale out of Juneau - really good stuff!

[Gene Waara]

Too funny. It is a running joke between us that I tightly hold the hand of LOML when we enter the store to run a quick errand so she cannot wander off. I thought she was the only one that could get lost there - apparently not!

[Paul Johnstone]

Two guys were in home depot with their spouses. One was an elderly couple, the other was a couple in their early 20's

Both men lost their wives in the store, so they began roaming the store, searching.
The two men bumped into each other. They found out that they were both missing wives.
The elderly man said "Hey, maybe we can help each other out. What does your wife look like?"
The young man said. "My wife has blue eyes, long curly blond hair which is shoulder blade length, and she is 36-24-34. What does your wife look like?"
The elderly man said "Who cares what my wife looks like? Let's find yours".

Our running joke (bet) is when we pull into the grocery store parking lot because we need milk and bread and I wait in the car. I bet that she will not come out with only 2 items (the ones she went in for). I've never lost the bet.

Also, she has no peripheral vision nor does she look behind her when we go into a store together. If I stop, she's gone. I used to spend time looking for her but now I just do my thing and leave it up to her to find me.

[Bruce Benjamin]

You didn't say if you ever found her or not. After this much time some guys would just give up and go home. Maybe she doesn't want to be found...I'm just sayin...

The real question here is: Was there any good tools on sale and did you buy anything? Cause about the time you get up to the counter with the tool, you'll hear the voice behind you "Do you really need that"

[Sean Nagle]

Wow, I never heard of a snowbird going to Colorado for the winter.

Snowbirds usually look for warmer climes, but if you're a Canada goose, Colorado is "flying south for the winter"

Oh I found her all right - right in the middle of the lighting section looking up! She needs me for installing all these new home accessories!

My point exactly!
