equipment doesn’t require much
ever try buying clothes
for your wife? I did The last time,
and I mean last time, was 10 or 15
years ago.
It didn't turn out all bad,
however; she enjoyed spending
half a day taking it all back and
whanging it for what she wanted
in the first place. It wasn’t a sur-
prise in the second place. When
you ask her about her sweater and
shoe size in November, the cat to
out of the bag.
I even feel sorry for the sales
clerk that catches my eye when I
enter a store.
“Can I Help you, air?”
"I’m looking for a Christmas
present for my wife."
"What does she like, air?”
“I’m not quite sure,” I reply.
“Do you have any suggestions?”
After 15 minutes of looking at
suggestions I’m ready to press the
panic button.
I’ve found one of the beet solu-
tions to the Christmas shopping
dilemma to to get our daughter to
shop for her mother, my wife shop
for our daughter’s presents, and
me shop for our son
I can at least handle that.
