:: Our Monday night shopping spree broke out in an argument, as usual. It happens every time my wife and I go to a supermarket.

"I love it when they play Barry Manilow," Donna chirped.

"Here we go," I muttered under my breath, price comparing the girls in Produce.

"Question: Which is better? Bi-Lo Radio? Or Kroger Radio?"

"Oh, I just can't get enough of 'Turn on Your Heartlight.' Frankly," I said, "I don't much care for either station.

She stretched out a long, exasperated, "Why?!" Then, she gasped the big, airy, trademarked sigh my mother left behind in her will. "H-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h..."

"I'll tell you why. They ignore my requests. I've been in this store a billion times and not once have they played "Wipeout" in the Charmin aisle.

"H-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h..."

"Here comes that rainy day feeling again," blared from the speakers.

"I'm going next door to the restroom," I said, as Donna scowled at me while she estimated the heft and pelting range of a particularly large grapefruit.

I entered the drugstore to the beat of Wet Willie. Now, Eckerd's Radio, that really rocks! ::
