We were Christmas shopping at the mall on Christmas Eve
and the mall was packed. As Mary Lou walked through the mall she was surprised to
look up and see that I had wandered off. She was quite upset
because we had a lot to do. Because she was so worried, she called me
on her mobile phone to ask me where I was. In a calm voice,
I said, "Honey, you remember the jewelry store we went into about 5
years ago where you fell in love with that diamond necklace that we
could not afford and I told you that I would get it for you one day?"
She choked up and started to cry and said,"Yes, I remember that
jewelry store." "Well, I'm in the bar right next to it," I said
