Why do women go to two or three different grocery stores to buy items that are at all the stores instead of just shopping at one? Do they honestly think the 3cents saved on the can of soup is worth the 50cents of gas burned to drive across town? Are the Green Giant beans that much better from Kroger than the ones at Walmart? DH

LOL, I used to do that too. The meat at Krogers is far better than Wal Mart and they carry Black Angus, however Wal Mart is less expensive on paper products.<br /><br />I am very organized and shop from a type written list that is arranged according to isle that I created. I also formulate menus before I make the list for a 2 weeks period, I shop at only Kroger now.<br /><br />These days I don't want to spend any more time than I have to in the grocery store.<br /><br />I will admit to buying many things that were not on my list when I used to grocery shop at Wal Mart so in the end shopping at Kroger actaully saves me money. :)

Mrs. LF, I know you are a professional and would be embarrassed if you knew that all these folks on iBoats knew about this...in your quote above, you mentioned that you shopped from a list according to "isle"...now, maybe everyone else understood that you meant "aisle"...me, I am just a simple ol' country boy, but back in about 1965, while in 5th grade, I was taught that "isle" is short for "island"...while "aisle" is the word for a walkway between two rows of items...I could be wrong, and you just might be wealthy enough to go shopping on "isles" but did you really mean or intend to type in "aisles"??? It really doesn't mean a lot to most folks, and as long as YOU understand it then all is ok...but suppose you also wrote on your list which is type written, that you wanted to buy some "best of chicken"...and what you REALLY meant to type was "breast of chicken"...now suppose you were suddenly and inexplicably taken ill, and Mr. LF were to have to do your shopping...first, he wouldn't know which "isle" you went shopping on, and then if he found one, he just might not understand what a "best of chicken" was (there is NO telling just what he might bring home)...I am sure that, as a professional business lady, you can understand the ramifications of such a simple mistake?<br /><br />Please, Mrs. LF, I am not making any effort here to publicly cast a shadow upon your spelling / intelligence / knowledge of the English language, and that is why I came to you in private to tell you this...so now...<br /><br /><br />...PLEASE LEAVE THAT @#$! CLUB UNDER THE DESK!!!!!!!!!!

I am now at an undisclosed location with a wireless transmission capable of auto-detonating many anti_LF smoke devices if they so much as suspect she is approaching, providing me enough time to re-deploy to another locale...with my hi-resolution web cam attached and operational, can view 360-degrees above ground and determine is she is in the area...I THINK I am semi-protected for now...

<br />You can count on us fellow i-boaters to run interference for you as you make your getaway in the sprattmobile. Remember to engage your turbo launch, and oil slick enhancer, so LF will slip as she chases you down the isle errrr aisle. <br />Good Luck Mr.Spratt.

LINK!!!!! I am surprised at the others who are only "wishing" me luck...YOU, my friend are only 20 miles away!!!!! Seems you could do more, like maybe bringing boomy's cannon to the Narrows bridge and blocking her entrance to the Peninsula...<br /><br /><br />Hmmm, makes me wonder...I am now musing as I sit here under this palm tree in southern California...maybe I can make her think that it was really Link who wrote that, PRETENDING to be me...

You could always return as Ms.spratt, and get the fellow female sympathy card playing. For right now you can hide with the rest of us. <br />

Well, I may just slip out of this little grass hut herein Tahiti and look around...it seems that ol' LF is away, and EVERYONE may be safe...thanks for the support, guys and lady!!! If I am not seen here in a long while, like 15 minutes or so...say a prayer, and search for my bruised adn bloodied body...somewhere on teh plains of Kansas...I sure hope LF is reading theis and sees how well travelled I am, and figgers she just can't locate me...but I have no doubts she owns some Viking radar beacon locator which can train in on WiFi signals and decrypt the headers of iboat posts!!!!
