As I drove around town looking for a Circuit City store I pulled into a parking lot .
As I drove thru the lot I noticed a lot of cars parked all over. They were parked very
hap hazardedly and were not completely in parking spaces .  Some cars were double parked
and some were even taking up 2 spaces .  The few people I saw were standing around
talking to each other and not really going anywhere . I finally said forget it and headed out to the street
and then had to laugh at myself when I saw the CarMax sign ......

I hate going Chrisymas shopping .

CarMax is the United States' largest used-car retailer.
He wasn't at a electronics store parking lot, he was at a used car lot.

Gentlemen if you have not started shopping yet, you are in trouble. I was shopping and Valentine's Day and Easter stuff is out. It was like being in the Twilight Zone. I was getting confused.  :urcrazy;

If by "sign" you mean  "Here's your sign".    :rofl;

We might be able to add this to the "You might be a Redneck" page.

You might be a redneck if everytime you go to the electronics store you can't find a parking space because no one ever leaves!    :lol;



It was funnier in my head.  :-\

I have a terrible joke that came to mind , but I shall not venture there....

I look horrible in yellow and I am sure it would not be my size. I need to shop in the big ears dept.

I love opening myself up to ridicule with my peers ... I might as well laugh at myself , everyone has been since
I was little .  If you can not laugh at yourself you can not laugh at anything and I love to laugh and make people laugh.

That is why I love it here! Everyone can laugh at ourselves, but be amazingly supportive when we need it!

I didn't realize you had big ears..................that brings another bad joke to mind involving alcohol and ears.  :bandance; :bandance; :bandance;
