A letter

Dear Gang Banger Wanna Be's,
Upon entering WalMart I noticed the lack of video games, beg for candy machines and rides. My children were stunned, I was elated! I asked some associates and they told me of your late night hijinks and tomfoolery. It seems that for lack of anything better to do in our town, you made your presence known at WalMart. I have never thanked gang members before or even wanna be's but I am extremely grateful for your adolescent delinquency. You have made my trips to WalMart with The Littles a kinder, gentler experience. Thank you. There is a row of beg for candy machines at Family Fresh Market that I wouldn't mind you hanging around either.
Word.

Sincerely,
Mrs. Stream

kristi noser said...

wouldn't that be "ganging" round?

LadyD said...

That's weird. So they got rid of them because kids were hanging around the machines? Isn't that what they are for? Especially that "Grab the cool stuff" one?
More info! More info! :)

Carla said...

They were doing more than ganging around. Creating a presence in the wee hours of the night.

That is all the info I have. The entrance to Walmart is so so quiet!!!

Kara Jo said...

Haha! I was wondering what happened to those.

LadyD said...

Ahhhh-Gotcha!
I will miss trying to win stuffed animals with The Claw, I am an expert Claw grabber~
:)

Peaceful and quiet is good....

ll (see, right back at ya)
I'm not sure why you might suspect sarcasm of ME! (picture raised eyebrows and mock shock here.)
But I was totally serious about those claw things. Maybe the good quality ones just exist west of the Mississippi? Wow - talent.
