Sis was shopping around for a new dress; she was invited out with the ladies of the church for a dinner. As she was browsing around the store, the sales lady was letting her take her sweet time. She finally said to the clerk, “I would like to try that one on over there.” The nice sales lady said, “Ma’am that is a lamp shade!”
