Kool-Aid Man Strikes Again

I found this on Goodyblog and they found it from someone else...but it made me smile and I thought it might make you smile too!

Swatch Phones

Raise your hand if you had a Swatch Phone! I did and it looked like this one (but I don't remember it having purple buttons). I have got to find pictures of it. If you didnt' have one, the neat thing about the Swatch Phone was that you could talk on the handset OR pick up the base, flip it over and use it as a handset. Perfect for sleepovers and people talking over each other. I've been wanting to get a corded phone for when the electricity goes out and I think I'm going to track one of these down. I may have to go with the clear version where you can see the inner workings!

To the Woman in the White Toyota in the Walmart Parking Lot Chatting on Her Phone

First of all please take note of my new spelling of Walmart in the title to reflect their new logo, in the past I've always used the hyphen but these times they are a changing.

No back to you - Phone Chatting, White Toyota Woman - Yes, I saw you moseying up the aisle as I was about to back out and yes, I could have stopped and waited for you to pass before I continued to back out but not only did I not wait, I decided to back out anyway just because it was you. I know, I know - "Do Unto Others" - but I kind of do wish someone had done this to me, especially if I had just done to those other people in the parking lot what you did. When you came up on that long line of cars in front of Walmart did you really think they were just stopped there for the fun of it? That they were all waiting for their spouse that ran in for a loaf of bread real quick? No, there was a reason they were stopped. There was NO reason for you to just pass them all by so when the first car was able to go (after waiting for a car to back out or to let a pedestrian walk across, or some other valid reason for being stopped) everyone else had to wait for you to finish passing them all up. Seriously - I know Walmart just repaved the parking lot but I don't remember seeing a passing lane.

Oh well, even if you are reading this I'm sure it doesn't mean anything because you were in your own little world and probably don't even realize you were so rude. I'm also pretty sure the person you were chatting on the phone with got an earful about the person that backed out in front of you since it was your own little parking lot playground. But I am sorry - to my children. Girls, "Two wrongs don't make a right".

Crazy Food Hankerings

What is your crazy food hankering? Mine is Lauging Cow ORIGINAL spreadable cheese on French bread - so far, not so crazy. Here's where I lose my mind...I like to dip the bread with the cheese into soy sauce.

What crazy food combos do you enjoy?

We Saw Hancock (Twice - Kind Of)

Yesterday, the girls were at the lake with Emily and Ashley and Jason and I didn't have anything to do now that the house is sold (no projects around the house, don't want to start packing quite yet) so we went to the movies. And what is a July 4th weekend without a Will Smith movie? Can you believe it was 12 years ago when Independence Day was in the theatres? Right after I graduated high school.

I thought it was a pretty good movie (although I must admit I'm not nearly as particular about my movies as I am my television shows). What wasn't good? The woman sitting behind us that repeated all the words and recapped all the scenes. UGH! Seriously, can we add to the millions of "don't use your cell phone" reminder a "don't be stupid" reminder? (I do find it funny that when you are waiting for a movie to start there are a million ads for cell phone companies followed by a million of the "don't use your cell phone" reminders).

Oh well, it gave me something to post about.

Fingers to Keyboard ("Pen to Paper" Sounds So Much More Thoughtful)

No, I didn't get salmonella from the tomato in my last post and I really do have random thoughts on things besides my family and television...hopefully I'll put fingers to keyboard (pen to paper sounds so much more thoughtful) and prove that soon.
