While shopping with my wife yesterday, one of the rare Saturdays I took off, my wife informed me that she just realized where the name "Mall" came from.  One day, a long, long time ago, a wife was going shopping in an area where there were many stores under one roof selling many a sundry items.  Here husband, always concerned about her spending and where to find her if he needed to, ask, "Which stores will you be visiting, my love?"  She responded, "I will be at 'themall'"!  Her husband, not understanding that there was a space between "them" and "all", assumed that there was a place called "the mall" that he had never heard of and did not want to know about.  After talking with his buddies, they too had heard of this mysterious and expensive place where wives and daughters go to spend money and pass the time.  Thus the birth of this wonderous, magical place where you can buy anything your heart desires at twice the normal price.
