Christmas 2010 Part II

Bryan apprenticed the art of Christmas-Toy-Assembling on Christmas Eve with his expert father.  The coming of age experience was complete with a bit of panic and test of true of manhood when a vital piece was discovered broken.  For a moment the apprentice felt discouraged at the thought of undoing all the hard work and packing it in a box but the master craftsman explained that in this trade the proper procedure was to buy a new kit, swap out the defective piece for the new one and return the new kit.  This way there was no need for the assembling to be undone.  Guy took control of the situation and instructed Bryan to go on assembling without him.  With his American Express, Guy drove to the nearest Target and vowed not to return home without a new piece until he had stopped at every Target in the county.   Just like that Bryan was left to face the project alone.  Fortunately the nearest Target did have a kit and Guy was only gone about a half hour.  The Kit was soon declared Kitchen and Bryan a real man!
