These observations come from real life – mine. Yale Schwartz ________________________________________ I've got the patience of a saint. Too bad it's Saint Impatience. PECO’s winter kit – energy saving items I sent an email telling everyone in my address book about this great deal that PECO was offering. The only catch was that the winter kit was only available to PECO customers. So, I only sent it to Pennsylvania residents. By the way, PECO is pronounced PEE-KO. Unfortunately, PECO stands for the Philadelphia Electric Company. It doesn’t service all of Pennsylvania. My mistake – I call this my PECO boo-boo! The sign said, "Everybody pays for shoplifting." I picked up an item and walked out of the store. The store detective stopped me and said, “Excuse me, is that paid for?” To which I replied, “According to your sign, it is.” The sign said, "Wet floor" So, why were they angry with me when I did what the sign told me to do? The sign said, "Everything in the store is one dollar." But they wouldn't sell me everything in the store for one dollar; they wanted a dollar for each item. Your Password must be 6 digits in length, and contain one alpha character and one numeric character. This must be a trick question; I can’t figure it out. Why is it called a multiple-choice test? When I chose multiple answers, they were all marked wrong. The singles ad promised, "YOU WILL MEET OTHER SINGLES JUST LIKE YOU" No thanks. I’m heterosexual. The carton of Orange Juice says, "Pulp Free". But I was looking for orange juice with no pulp; cost was not a factor. The guy in the commercial says, “My Ford truck has 120,000 miles on it… and it runs the same as it did when I bought it brand new.” Could be... the car ran like a clunker from day one.
