I won't apologise for the title, because this is part of what constitutes the colorful scenario of my lexicon!;-)
It's Wednesday again and time for some craziness: I fell over my chair yesterday night--laughing so hard because in an invite I had received from Facebook to some event, someone had said I could pick tickets up from...
MaRXMart
!Now even if you're not a regular visitor to this blog, you might know that MaxMart [I won't be creating any links for them, you'll have to do a google search!] epitomizes all that is middle class plus in Ghana. Just check the picture out, and you'll know what I mean.
I believe you'll find them "running to the hills" --as my good British blogger-friend/actor, Daniel Hoffman-Gill would say--were the mere words "MARX" associated with them!

MarxMart would have almost the same reaction here in the USA except that many people might think of The Marx Brothers comedy family.
Nice post!
*LOL* That's hilarious! MaxMart certainly is no (Karl)MarxMart for sho! To quote a middle-aged American man I overheard shopping there last week Saturday: "Everything is like 5 times the price it costs in the US because it is all imported. You really have to work at some big multi-national company to afford shopping here!"
@Frank--thank you! The Marx Brothers are a different kettle of fish!
@Abena--u couldn't have put it better!!
