Best of Willie's World................Supermarket Checkout Grid Lock

There are many things that bug me, but high up on the list are people who still write checks at the checkout line at the supermarket. Every time I am behind one of these people I feel like saying "excuse me " Do you know we have landed a man on the moon." "Hey, how about the new Edsel." Have you ever heard of a thing called a debit card."

Writing checks is so 1990s.

Writing a check in the checkout line annoys me, but to push the envelope a little further. These check writing people also don't think ahead and have the check partially made out. Date, name of supermarket and their name. Is that too much to ask, to be prepared. And to push this envelope even further, they also have to fill out their register in line as well.

So here is my advise if you are one of these people. Get up early have a bowl of gruel, brush your teeth with Ipana toothpaste, put some Wildroot Cream Oil on your hair, slip into your pegged paints and get behind the wheel of your DeSoto and drive into the 21st century and get a debit card. Let's try to make my life run a little smoother.
