Yesterday I went to Walmart on my way home from work. It was about 5:15 or so and the first thing I saw when I walked in was a line-up in front of the greeting card section. They were all men. Each looking a bit perplexed as they perused the valentines trying to pick one for a wife or sweetheart. I really got tickled. Most of them had either a single rose in one hand or various stuffed animals. The one thing they all had in common was a very pained look on their face. There were more men there then at the recruiting station the day after the Vietnam (draft) lottery was held.
I ran into a young newlywed male I work with and he was carrying a lone plant and a card. I laughed at him and he explained that he had to wait until the last minute or his wife would find any surprise he might have purchased. I told him that I bought Ron's gift a month ago and he didn't find it. The young man then put me in my place when he answered, "Yeah, but we don't look."
There were some big changes here today....

Hum,I wonder if the urge to snoop is age related. Maybe it goes about the same time as our vision and waistlines.
