As I’m going about my business, I like to take in what’s going on around me. I used to walk on the campus at K-State and hear people talking on their cell phones and to each other. Just random stuff. Some people call that eavesdropping, I just call it entertaining.
Today I heard a group of people talking and one of them said, “Go to the FBI website. They have a list of all the sexual predators and your daddy is on there.”
Did I hear this at?
a) Work
b) Grocery Store
c) Wal-Mart
If you said (c) you are CORRECT!
I tell you the more I observe all the weirdness in the world, the more I think “normal” is pretty rare.

Isn’t it one of the best forms of entertainment?! You hear stuff that is interesting, entertaining, humorous, bizarre, or like your encounter…downright creepy! I don’t think of it as eavesdropping…it’s just a cheap form of entertainment. Let’s face it, when we are out there plodding through our day, people are doing the same thing to us…tuning in to our conversations.

I would’ve guessed “work,” and that the person on the receiving end was Dewey.

I would have guessed “work,” but Stooks doesn’t work here anymore. (Actually, my money would have been on Jerry)

Also, I’m assuming you were at the JC Wal-Mart?
