So, the weirdest thing happened last night while Angie and I were at Walmart. At about 10:30ish, there was an urgent anouncement over the P.A. informing us that they were having "technical" difficulties at the back of the store, and we all needed to proceed to the checkout counter with our purchases. While we were in the lineup with the other hundred shoppers rushing to the front, they told us just to leave our purchases where they were and immediately leave the premises. On our way out, there were a couple of police officers, along with employees, directing people to rush out of the building. They did not tell us a thing. So, of course, the first thing I did this morning was turn on my computer and google the events of yesterday evening. Apparently, a "suspicious" package was found by an employee doing a routing cleaning. The police, along with the tacticul (sp?) unit, were called and the package was examined, but it was totally bogus and everything was fine. So, yeah, that was my totally cool, weird evening last night....(Esther, doesn't this remind you of one of those totally matter of fact stories we are so great at telling...lol)
