Mrs. Big Dollop, like tens of thousands of other women the world over was absolutely delighted to find that Santa Dollop had had the good sense to leave a Kindle lovingly wrapped up under the Christmas Tree for his good lady wife to open on Christmas morning.
In today’s electronic society it is not beyond the realms of incongruity to say millions of Kindle E Readers were probably given as presents to loved ones this Christmas, what did surprise the Big Dollop however was an article in various American Media outlets which reported that in the seven days prior to Christmas over 1,534,414 background reports were filed with the FBI in relation to the sale of firearms.
Speaking with colleagues of Mrs. BD about the merits of the second amendment I was dumbfounded to find out not only had they concealed firearm licenses - but were “carrying” and did so in a nonchalant manner akin to that I would relate to having my mobile phone on my possession.
I can readily understand the number of Kindles sold and placed under Christmas trees all over the USA – the sale of 1.5 million guns in the week before Christmas is just plain bonkers in my humble opinion, but then again what does a daft Scotsman like me know about the American psyche.
