Who's Your Bible?

Today at work I began clearing out some random stuff from my desk drawers, as I get ready to work my final day October 31rst. I have a feeling it's going to get here a lot quicker than I think, especially because I still have so much left to do. Going through all the stuff that has collected over the past seven years brought back some memories, mostly funny ones. I'm not really sure why most of them were funny. I mean, they could have all been really crappy memories, but that would have been really sad, and probably not blogworthy. So as it was, I found them funny memories. Shortly after I started working at CLC, I had my first 'King James Perversion' as we would come to call it. A middle-aged African-American woman walked into our store and asked if we sold Bibles. And of course, being a Christian bookstore, we had many. So I asked her, "Do you know what type of bible you are looking for?", and she replied, "Well, I be a new Christian, and don't be knowin' too much bout' the Bible, but my girl in Detroit said there's like, uh, a Rick James Bible, or some kinda James." And I calmly and straightforwardly replied, "Rick James was a Super Freak, BUT...King James was a Jesus Freak!...She just stared at me for about 10 seconds as if my head suddenly popped off, and finally said "Hold on yo, let me call my girl and see if thas' it."...[Only in America...lol]. Another funny true story, and yes, it really is true; A guy walks into our store and askes if his special order was in? I asked him, "What was it that you ordered?", and he replied, "It was a book called 'Controlling Your Anger Before It Controls You', and it was under the name Surgey". So I looked underneath, but didn't see anything, so I checked the computer to see the status. "Well Sir, I see your book was ordered, but it hasn't arrived at our store yet. I would expect it in tomorrow"...His short and direct reply was, "Screw this, I don't have time for this shit!!..Cancel the order". And with that, he walked quickly and purposefully toward and out the door. About 20 minutes later, Tom, the UPS Man, showed up with a package he forgot to drop off earlier, and of course, inside was one fresh copy of 'Controlling Your Anger Before It Controls You'...Funny how things workout ;-P
