Or is that bare?

I'm trying to get all my Xmas cards out and in the mail. The cards will be the only gifts I'll be able to afford to give. Even postage for all the cards added up. I was so shocked at the price of cards! I saw boxes of cards going for $30! I went the cheap, yet still fun route by going to Big Lots and still it was about $10 for the cards. Dang! I know a few people that are just sending email cards. I got one today of a bunch of topless girls with Santa caps on the beach.

The play I'm in required a crucifix for an exorcism, but the props department didn't have one, so I stopped off at this Christian gift store and spent $20 for a wooden cross only to be told by the director, "What's wrong with you? That's a cross! Not a crucifix!"

I guess I wasn't thinking.

This morning I took the cross back to the store to see if I could get my money back and the clerk ask, "Was there something wrong with it?"

"I believe it's defective. It didn't do anything."

The look on her face was priceless!
