Grandma's House

I saw the strangest thing today. While my husband and I were out shopping (today was payday for both of us) we stopped at the Dollar General store near Springfield. I decided to wait in the car while he went in for dogfood. As I was waiting, I noticed there was an inflatable snowman just outside the door. Now the strange thing was the way people were reacting to that snowman. Every single child who went into the store stopped at that snowman and bopped it on it's little carrot nose. Every single child. I wonder why.
