The things people ask...

Today a young woman came to the counter to ask my advice about a present for a bridal shower.  She showed me the copy of the Kama Sutra with explicit photos (from behind our covered XXX rated shelves), and asked if I thought this was a suitable gift.  I asked how well she knew the bride, and she said she had only met her once!  She works with the groom.

Hmmm.  I suggested this book (a small book from our humor section) or perhaps a cookbook would be better.  She clearly didn't think that was a great idea (perhaps its a generational thing).  Later she came back to show me her choice from another store:  a basket full of lotions and soaps.   I applauded her selection.  She left happy.
