My store is engaged in a low-key battle of wills with someone who supports Ron Paul.  We have a community bulletin board in the store; it is specifically for community events.  We don't know who it is, but someone keeps putting up Ron Paul fliers on it.  We don't allow any political things that just say "vote for this guy."  If there's going to be a rally or meeting for supporters of a person or ballot measure, they can post fliers for that.  But not straight campaign fliers.

So we keep taking them down.  And whoever it is keeps putting up more.

I wonder which entity will give up first.

Just got pulled over for going 65 in a 60 with an object hanging from the mirror, a headlight out, and expired tabs, all while on a mobile phone.

Received a friendly warning.

Totally new slow-cooker chili recipe is now slow-cooking.  I had to pause several times in the cooking of this recipe, so I have no idea how this will turn out.  It smelled good a few times, so here's hoping!

I just realized Bill Paxton has the awesome distinction of having been killed by an Alien, a Predator *and* a Terminator.

Hey, yeah!

Wait, what? *eyes you curiously, pokes you with a stick* What are you doing watching such horrendous sci-fi violence?

Just passed a green and purple car decorated with plastic squirrels and moss, I think.  In the office parking lot, but part of the campus I only pass through on the bus. I may have to go back for photos today if time permits.

I once saw a cool car that was beige/sand coloured and they had made the bonnet 'rocky' and stuck lizards on it and drawn cacti on the wing mirrors  :nerd:

I've bought some 'Original Source' shampoo and it's almond and coconut scent. It smells overpoweringly of almonds and not a whiff of coconut.

i have also been watching NCIS back to back.

Now every time i smell my shampoo, I'm convinced for a second that I'm being poisoned by hydrogen cyanide >_<

Damn you Abby!

Thanks to the local Dollarama, I have acquired quite the collection of Z-grade 1960s/1970s sci-fi/horror cinema.
Oh, how I love these 20-movie public domain movie packs.

*points to his screen*
I'm guessing these were made simply to have something to put on the screen while all the teenagers were necking at the drive-in.

1960s/1970s shouldn't be public domain yet, but I'm guessing the republication licenses were pretty cheap to acquire...

I suddenly know, without being told, exactly where my mom got all those bizarre little songs she used to make up and sing to me from.
