The late Jerry Falwell was enthused with shopping about as much as any man. In her recent book, Jerry Falwell, His Life and Legacy, Falwell’s wife explained how her husband handled their trips to the mall. Falwell would drive his wife to the store and then park the car. He would hang a sign in the window and lean back in his seat for a nap. The sign read: "I’m not dead. I’m just sleeping while my wife shops."
