The 2008 Bastrop invitational HOSE, and I lost -- bubble boy from that. Time to get groceries.The sign for the HEB express lane read sign read "15 items or fewer." I stepped up to the checkout -- just managing to scoot in front of an approaching shopper and her assistance animal.
"I want to commend the store on y'alls grammar," I said to the cashier. "Most signs would say 'less'. But it's not as proper. Fewer is a better term."
The cashier just looked at me -- showing the level of interest one would get by listening to a dog show radio broadcast.
"I think this spinach is on special. Let me check."
