There's no more forced personal reflection than the rip-off-the-covers-toss-you-out-of-bed-and-show-everything wake-up call of being in Wal-Mart and hearing Rodney Atkins sing 'These are My People.
In celebration of my 5-minute family reunion at the neighborhood store around the corner from our house, I'm sharing one of my favorite songs -- all about finding true love at Wal-Mart -- by one of my favorite past-times:
3 Fools on 3 Stools (if you have the chance to see them, go! if you have a choice, their later shows are a little more raucus, and their Annual White Trash Party in October is . . . well, unabashedly trashy).
Here's a link to 3 Fools leader Doc Wesson singing about a minute of 'Discount Love Affair:'

Discount Love Affair by Doc Wesson
And here's what I sing at Wal-Mart to stay on my wife's good side:
I met her at Walmart
She thought I was real smart
As I walked her down the isle
She looked at me and smiled
And said "You're a good shopper!"
I met her at Walmart
Now she's my sweetheart
No matter what you're lookin' for
You can find it at the superstore.
