She is of course fabulating about this whole grocery shopping thing, she is just posting to get attention, *none* of what she says about *anything* is true...I'd aver it is a Giant Steaming Combo Plate of mental health issues - I'd guess bipolar at the *very* least - and just general stupidity/learned helplessness. As lagniappe she always plays the perpetually needy "victim" in all of her tall tales...

Basically, she apparently sleeps all day and is up all night "playing" on Usenet...she has nothing remotely useful to do with her life...in this latter respect she is in that same rarified company as our other Certified Whack Job, John Kuthe - in both sad cases, rfc is their sole social "connection" to the "outside world"...

So Doris, do *not* expect a rational answer to your *very* rational question...she will respond with hundreds/thousands of words of pure gibberish...she's many times more tall tales than even that crafty Arab dame of old Scheherazade...just call it Julie's *Ten* Thousand And One Nights, lol...
