After I retired, my wife insisted that I accompany her on her trips to Target.Unfortunately, like most men, I found shopping boring and preferred to get in and get out. Equally unfortunate, my wife is like most women - she loves to browse.
Yesterday my dear wife received the following letter from the local Target: 1. June 15: He took 24 boxes of condoms and randomly put them in other people's carts when they weren't looking. 2. July 2: Set all the alarm clocks in Housewares to go off at 5-minute intervals. 3. July 7: He made a trail of tomato juice on the floor leading to the women's restroom. 4. July 19: Walked up to an employee and told her in an official voice, 'Code 3 in Housewares. Get on it right away'. This caused the employee to leave her assigned station and receive a reprimand from her Supervisor that in turn resulted with a union grievance, causing management to lose time and costing the company money. 5. August 4: Went to the Service Desk and tried to put a bag of M&Ms on layaway 6. August 14: Moved a'CAUTION - WET FLOOR' sign to a carpeted area. 7. August 15: Set up a tent in the camping department and told the children shoppers he'd invite them in if they would bring pillows and blankets from the bedding department to which twenty children obliged. 8. August 23: When a clerk asked if they could help him he began crying and screamed, 'Why can't you people just leave me alone?'EMTs were called. 9.. September 4: Looked right into the security camera and used it as a mirror while he picked his nose. 10. September 10:While handling guns in the hunting department, he asked the clerk where the antidepressants were. 11. October 3: Darted around the Store suspiciously while loudly humming the ' Mission Impossible' theme. 12. October 6: In the auto department, he practiced his 'Madonna look' by using different sizes of funnels on his chest. 13. October 18: Hid in a clothing rack and when people browsed through, he yelled 'PICK ME! PICK ME!' 14. October 22: When an announcement came over the loud speaker, he assumed a fetal position and screamed 'OH NO! IT'S THOSE VOICES AGAIN!' 15. Took a box of condoms to the check out clerk and asked where the fitting room was? And last, but not least: 16. October 23: Went into a fitting room, shut the door, waited awhile, and then yelled very loudly, 'Hey! There's no toilet paper in here. One of the clerks passed out.

"Do what?" asked Blonde #2.
"Send my lawn out to be mowed."
Very grudgingly, he agreed. Bucket in hand, he walked out the door, down the steps, and out to the beach. As he was collecting the snails, he noticed a beautiful woman strolling alongside the water about fifty yards further down the beach. He thought to himself, "Wouldn't it be wonderful if she would just come over and talk to me?" He went back to gathering snails. Suddenly he looked up, and the beautiful woman was standing there, right next to him.
They got to talking. Soon, he accepted her invitation to accompany her to her apartment, about a hundred yards down the beach. Snail bucket in hand, he followed her to her apartment. They had a few drinks and soon started messing around. One thing led to another and he soon found his fantasies realized, after which he passed out.
When he awoke, he looked at his watch and, to his surprise, realized it was 7:00 am! Exclaiming, "Oh, no!!! My wife's dinner party," he quickly dressed, grabbed the bucket full of snails, and ran out the door. He ran up the beach all the way to his home. Climbing the steps to the porch, he dropped the bucket of snails--there were snails everywhere! Just then, the door opened, revealing a very angry wife wondering where he'd been all night. Without a pause, he looked at the snails all down the steps, looked at her, then back at the snails, and said,
"Come on, guys, we're almost there!"
