So, the whole crew is recovering, more or less, from a bout of the cold/allergy crap. We decided late yesterday we were dangerously low on cold/allergy meds. We sojourned to Pewaukee on our quest for meds and the appropriate sleeping bag for lil g's first day at daycare

Here's how the conversation went:

Clerk: I would like to sell you some pseudophedrine.
Gabe: I would like to buy some.
Clerk. What kind?
Gabe: I want a red one in the largest amount possible, and a blue one in the largest amount possible.
Clerk: I don't think You can buy two, but you can try.
Gabe: Awesome! Let's Try!
Pharmacist not minding his own business: No. You can't buy that much.
Gabe: Ok. Can I have my wife buy one and then I'll buy the other.
Clerk: Sure.
Pharmacist: No. You can only buy it for yourself.
Gabe: But we're both going to take both of them.
Pharmacist: No. Then I can't sell you any.
Gabe; Ok. Then I'll by mine and she'll buy hers.
Pharmacist. Ok. Then you can buy it.
... A beat...
Gabe, smiles: And we'll all live a big happy lie.
Pharmacist: No. then you can't buy any. If you tell me you're lying then you can't buy any.
Gabe, feeling sad. Looking tired: I'm not lying.
Pharmacist, anger rising: Then you can't buy any. You said you were lying. You could be buying this stuff to make street drugs.
Gabe: Spare me the lecture ok?
Pharmacist gets pissy: I don't have to sell you anything. I'll call security! Don't you talk to me like that!
Gabe shuts down and doesn't say anything else, just looks at the clerk who is trying to process Gabe's purchase just as fast as she can.
Jeni, stepping in: What's all this then?
Gabe walks away.

Also, there was some insane rambling on his part at one point about "Blaming Mr. Bush." that's all I really recall.

[radishthegreat]

Bush? Clinton, Feinstein, and Obama co-sponsored the psuedoephedrine regulations that got passed into law, which never should have been tacked onto a national defense bill. It was a bipartisan infringement on civil liberties, although minor compared to what Clinton and Obama have planned.

Anyway, don't ever engage in conversation. Just ask to purchase the amount legally allowed by law and sneeze a few times.

Spare me the lecture.

I'm calling security!
