Standoff at the Grocery Store

The other day Sydney and I were leaving the grocery store after our weekly shopping trip. My cart was very very full and heavy. We were negotiating our way through a narrow space between some cement posts and a large column in front of the building when I looked up and saw a large man swaying towards us. He was at least 350lbs. I kept going because the cart was too much for me to maneuver and assumed that he would move out of the way. He didn't.

Just at the last minute before I would have hit him with my cart, he stepped out of the way.

"Sorry," I said. "I can't steer this thing."

His reply: "Me either."

Heh.
