7> “Damn, and I was only 44 years from retiring!”

6> “So, is Circuit City or Best Buy the new ‘lesser evil’?”

5> “Remind me, is it ‘Welcome to Wal-Mart, can I get you a cart?’ Or is it ‘Can I get you a cart? Welcome to Wal-Mart.’?”

4> “Why yes, we will take returns after the holidays. Just look for the big bin outside labeled ‘Dumpster’.”

3> “Is the new name CompMexico?”

2> “I knew we shoulda gone with ‘Nerd Squad!’”
