I'm shaking my ass in the front window of the store

[RetroLounge]

Poll question: I'm shaking my ass in the front window of the store

I am packing up books for shipment and dancing around to loud music.

In the front picture window of my bookstore.

What effect might this have on business?

:shrug:

[Droopy]

1. It depends

If women start coming into the store and sticking dollar bills in your belt then you might be on to something.

[RetroLounge]

7. So far, lets just say, I'm not getting rich...

Oh, wait a minute, here they come now...

:D

RL

[tigereye]

you are a cool dad

you have that rock n roll thing goin' on....

and you boogie in your store window!
