A Loving Couple Goes Christmas Shopping

Oh look, yet another Christmas TV special!

How touching to have the meaning of Christmas brought to us by Cola-Cola, fast food, and beer.

Who’d have ever guessed that product consumption, popular entertainment, and spirituality would mix so harmoniously?

A loving couple 
were in a busy shopping center 
just before Christmas. 
The wife suddenly noticed 
her husband was missing. 
They had a lot to do, 
so she called him.
The wife said, 
Where are you?
You know we have lots to do.
Husband said, 
you recall the jewelry shop we went into 
maybe ten years ago now, 
and you fell in love 
with that diamond necklace?  
The one with two little emeralds?
I remember.
You remember 
I couldn't afford 
that diamond necklace 
with two little emeralds 
and I swore one day 
I would get it for you?
Little tears 
started to flow 
down her bright cheeks.
She got all choked up.
Yes, I do remember that store, 
the wife replied.
Well, I'm in the gun shop 
next door to that.
