A trip to the store....

I stopped into a grocery store to pick up some ice cream and fried chicken (I know real healthy), and while I was waiting for the chicken the guy behind the counter asked where I was from. My thought was like what the hell. Anyways I tell him I am from Billings and all he says is hmmm. No big deal but a little different. So as he hands me my chicken he asked where I got my jacket from. I told him Scheels. It's a North Face jacket. He tells me that Jim Whittaker is the CEO of the company. I thought cool but there a lot of CEO's out there. He then proceeds to tell me that he is the first American to climb Mount Everest. I thanked him. I left that grocery store knowing more than when I came in.

These little happenings make a day great. When you least expect a drop of knowledge. It's great.

By the way. The fried chicken was very good. And the ice cream was sooo good. And I'm not even sorry.
