Downtown Famous Barr Escalator
Yours Truly worked at the DT Famous Barr in the mid to late 70s. It was quite the retail landscape.
I recall this escalator on one of the upper floors. By the time I worked there the lower floors had been replaced with wider, steel escalators.

So I'm having lunch with this man I've been hanging with and I notice we're both dressed in black.
I say: Hey, the mortuary called and they want their suit back. Showing out my wit, right?
He scowls at me and says: Hey, the CONVENT CALLED AND THEY WANT THEIR VIRGIN BACK.
As I blushed the server (a friend of his) looks at me and says: So, what's it going to be?

10 years later, I don't recall who that was.
