it’s just not interesting

If you want paint-by-numbers status quo “journalism,” Dan Rather and Jorge Ramos are good places to start.

comparison shopping for a dvd

I’d like to have this collector’s edition Blu-ray disc of The Dead Zone coming out in July.

Look what Amazon did. Free shipping for $25 orders, so the disc is priced $24.99. It’s like I’m being given the finger. đź–•

I’ll just get it from CD Universe where I buy most things of this type and have since the dial-up Internet days.

CD Universe also carries porn in case you have some friend who is interested in that.

old sunglasses

I found some old sunglasses in a drawer tonight. I realized they were the same ones I wore to Pride in Carrboro in 1991 (30 years ago). I probably bought them about 1986, so maybe they are 35 years old. They are now back in service.

Lowe’s is in on it.

bumper sticker

I feel talked about.

label peeler

I’m on a mission to successfully peel a label off of a plastic item. It can take a long time.

sunday beer again

Lot of the gay in M’Coul’s today, us and many others, lol. It’s kinda the de facto. I used to call Geeksboro “the de facto” before it closed.

Of the official ones, Twist is nice, can’t stand Chemistry.

Modern Talking (screenshot) came on the sound system in M’Coul’s while we were there. It was a big Euro favorite 1980s. I’ve only heard them in the USA like twice.

Dog in a bag. Her name is Ebony, our latest elderly adoptee.

We’re practicing with her in a bag to see if this might work.
