RE: Ralph Hallock's e-mail yesterday that mentioned one of his pet peeves -- people who are too lazy to return shopping carts to the outdoor cages for easy retrieval. Well, XPress explains why she often doesn't do so:

I imagine some people who don't put their shopping carts away are lazy. I bet many of the stray carts are left by mothers like me. It makes me mad that even after you spend $200 on groceries, many stores won't help you out with your groceries. And those damn cart corrals aren't always conveniently located. I'm not going to leave my kids alone in the car while I trek halfway across the parking lot to put a cart away.
