six degrees too close

I've seen frightening images in my life. For instance, "The Ring." That was frightening. Michael Jackson's mugshot. Again, scary. Tonight, though, I saw something that made my blood run cold.

While watching last night's "Rich Girls," a show that I'm drawn to like the most heinous of train wrecks, I saw Ali make a hopeless trip to the grocery store. Not just any grocery store, but the Whole Foods in Greenwich where I shop on a regular basis. This, in itself, isn't too frightening. While mindlessly going down random aisles she spots a worker and asks him for help. There's a horrific subthread about her wanting to make a Mexican meal and seemingly asking the first Hispanic-looking person she sees, but she's a despicable excuse for a human being and I don't need to extrapolate on that. What's frightening, though, is the employee gives her a blank stare. Why so scared you ask? Well, last Sunday that very same guy gave me the very same stare when I asked him to grab a can of vegetable broth that I couldn't reach. Bizarre.

Okay, so it's only scary (and interesting) to me. My blog. My rules... :-)
