(Full Disclosure: Back in the day.. like waaaay back in the day.. I used to work at the Filene’s Basement in the Mall of America. Once, the Reggae star Shabba Ranks came into my check out line, buying a pair of black socks for $1.99. He wore really dark sunglasses, even though it was 8pm at night. )
