A Bizarrely Heartwarming Christmas Story

This is wonderful, a frenetic Christmas search by blogger Tony Woodlief to find cowboy guns for his kids for Christmas:

"But I couldn't find guns. I wandered up and down aisles until I spotted a salesman. "Excuse me," I said, "where can I find cowboy guns?"

"Oh. We don't sell those." He looked at me as if I had just asked him for nipple clamps, or perhaps a Bible. His voice was tinged with the self-righteousness of people who announce to others that they recycle, or that their children attend Eugene V. Debs Elementary because they believe in supporting the public schools."
