The 3rd woman just interrupted saying "when can I get some help with some framing"?.....I turned to the Sales Associate (while she apologized for the interruptions to me).......I said: "I am amazed, I just got back from shopping on Long Island and they even say "excuse me" there before interrupting!!....A teenager shopping nearby heard me and said "Your in the Villagers Now".......the very polite Store Associate just apologized to me again.......!!  |
May I suggest the title of the thread and the inference be modified to state:
Some Viilagers...................
The majority of us are NOT what is presented in the post.
SOME are.......they are in the minority and a long way from typical villagers!
