Last night we ventured out to the new Super Target or Target Grande or whatever they call it.

Same Target. Newer store.

Our purpose was to replace our fire-hazard halogen light in the living room with a safer incandescent one. We found one in our budget and took it home.

I put it together only to find that I had a growing suspicion that I was not the first to assemble this lamp. My suspicions were answered when I tried to tighten the pole to the base and could get it snug at best.

That’s right the pole threads were stripped. Thanks Target. Tonight we try again.
