Talking Pet store today

Went to the local pet store today to buy some lizard bedding for cleaning brass. Found what I was after and took it to the counter to pay for it. The young man behind the counter was ringing it up. He asked what kind of lizard do you have? He was just being friendly I guess. I replied, "357 magnum". He had a bewildered look on his face! I explained to him what I was doing with it. Don't know if he understood. Cleaning brass as of now.

Not something I would have discussed with a store clerk myself, but I am told I have a nasty suspicious mind.

Should have told him it was a new type Monitor Lizard called 357 Mag, it would have been all over the internet by now with people trying to buy one.

Hah!
I had to Google that up as I'd never heard of it.
Guess I'll have to try it now.

Don't recall ever being asked, actually, but I'm the same way. Woulda probly said "parts" or something. I've used vibrating cleaners for stuff long before I started reloading.
