I aged a year from this one!

Not a sucky customer, but worth telling.

I was ringing up customers at B&N one day. Nothing special, just ringin' em up. Then this guy comes up with his purchaces. We chat, 'cause I'm a friendly person. Now, he's wearing one of those loose fitting, blousey guy shirts over a regular shirt. My head was down, getting the bag for his things, I looked up...

...And I practically aged a year, because he had pulled back part of his blousey shirt, revealing, clinging to his normal shirt, a foot long, greyish green lizard!!

Yup, a live lizard, taking a ride on his shirt! The guy saw my reaction, and I laughed it off, but he took the cake as the most interesting customer of the day!

I've seen plenty of little doggies in my B&N store days, but never a lizard...

Well, except the girl I worked with who has 2 iguanas. She brought them in one day and she was carrying one and the other was riding on her shoulder. Their names are Mozart (as in Wolfgang), and Trent (as in Reznor, from Nine Inch Nails)...

I think I would

too!

(ps where is your B&N? Mine are NJ)

when my cat was a kitten, she used to curl around my dads shoulders. She once did this and refused to move as he walked up to the shops. The poor SA must have gotten a hell of a shock when his black, furry scarf she saw out of the corner of her eye lifted it's head up and 'brrrped' at her.
