MEANWHILE, BACK AT SEMI-REALITY CENTRAL

(CUSTOMER):"I'd like to return these. (hands me
a pack of tarot cards.)"

(ME):"Ok, ma'am..what's the reason for the return?"

(CUSTOMER): The game's too hard.I can't understand
the rules."

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Later that same day....(aka today)

CUSTOMER: "I'm looking for a meditation tape."

ME: "Ok. Do you know the author?"

CUSTOMER: "Bella Ruth Knapfen(something)"

ME: "Hmm. How do you spell that?"

CUSTOMER: "I don't know. I just know its
Knapfen(something)"

Sidenote here: the name began with Knapfen. Being
old and possibly blanking out a painful experience,
all I can recall is the Knapfen part.

Twenty minutes of hunting Knapfen(somethings)without
a clue as to spelling later, I was firmly convinced
this woman was not in need of meditation.

Her brain was already overly relaxed.
