On a Lighter Note


On Thanksgiving day, I heard the funniest story that I've heard in a long time. We had the pleasure of having my mom's longtime friend, Loretta from Quebec feasting with us. She used to work in a gift shop on the ships that docked in Miami. I believe that is where my mother and stepfather met her. Anyway, when she first started working for the cruise line she hardly spoke or understood a word of English. A passenger walked up to her counter in the store and asked if she sold condoms there. She had no idea what the word meant, and figured it had to do with Condominiums. So she told the man that they would be entering the port of Miami in twenty minutes and that they have them all over the beach! The man gave her the strangest look, she said, and walked out of the store. We all laughed so hard. Hope you do too.
