I Have I(rritable)B(owel)S(yndrome)

Today at Sears a guy used his Sears card. On the back of the card it said "Ask for ID". I went through with this request. As I'm looking at the ID I notice that his middle initial is X. Intrigued, I ask him.

Me: What's the X for?
Customer: Nothing. It is just X. I'm from a military family, and when you don't have a middle name they just put an X.
Me: Glad I asked. Quite interesting.
Customer: Yeah, and with a first name like Barksdale you don't really need a middle name.
Me: Yeah, that's like for names in one.
Customer: I just have people call me Dale.

Unfortunately the vast majority of Sears customers are not nearly as interesting as Barksdale X. Hales.

There was another quite friendly customer yesterday. A woman. Not particularly attrative at all, physically that is. But she was incredibly nice with a great British accent. I really do enjoy those. Good voices in general. I think voice has to make up at least 20 percent of attractiveness, at least for me. I also can very easily remember exactly what a person sounds like, but I have an awful time putting together faces in my head. Luckily we have pictures to help us remember, such as this one.
