respect the como

i spent yesterday evening visiting targets and listening to perry como sing ave maria. the perry como christmas album forces christmas cheer upon all those who are unsuspecting. look at that cover and tell me you wouldn't go for a cup of egg nog and a little debbie christmas tree or whatever christmas treet your taste buds enjoy. i long to have my head pictured on a such a beautiful reef but that goes without saying.

i enjoy the como. perhaps it's just his name: perry como. the name 'perry como' just makes me think of happy. it's the name of somebody you'd like to have on your side, not in a fight or anything like that, just in life.

as i mentioned earlier, perry and i went to targets. we went to targets because until saturday they are selling the firefly series dvd (quick pause to thank seth worley for his firefly passion) for 18.99$ and it is normally 39.99$. those are the kind of savings with which i can get on board, you'd better believe it. the only problem was that it was not in stock at any target in the world.

this did trouble me because i'm cheap and probably wouldn't buy it at full price. then i found that i could get a rain check on the price for 45 days. my heart sang for joy and the late perry como sang right along (his music will never die). all i had to do was take a slip of paper to the register, have the person scan it and then a receipt would print allowing me to buy the product beyond the sale date at the sale price. bravo target. job well done. now i don't have to worry. i will have the extra 20$ to blow on whatever i want, like perry como's greatest hits.
