Dinner at Walgreens, Anyone?

I was amused to hear about a new offering at Walgreens. They are offering freshly prepared sandwiches and salads at 700 stores and plan to roll out the service to many more. So the next time that you are in your local Walgreens shopping for quick weight loss pills and cold remedies you can also stop by the sandwich counter and pick up lunch or dinner. I can just imagine how good the food is going to be.

Novelist Robert Parker Dies

I was sad to read about the death of Robert Parker today. He passed away at his desk, which is probably a fitting end. I read many of his crime novels featuring Spencer when I was younger, he was one of the first crime novelist that I read. From there I moved on to many other authors, but I always had a soft spot in my heart for him and and his hard nosed tough guy character. RIP Robert Parker.

Give It Up

I am watching Regis and Kelly and all I can think about is that it's time for Regis to give it up. He has gone beyond the point where it is enjoyable to watch him. All he is doing now is reinforcing the stereotype of crotchety old people who can't remember anything or adapt to new things. He needs to retire and go home and take care of his eczema and new hip. Let someone younger have the show with Kelly, it would be much more watchable.

My Perverted Humor

I have found a place that appeals to my form of humor. Maybe it comes from spending too much time in Walmart behind people with carts full of slimquick and beer. Or maybe it reminds me of when we lived in Lake City. Whatever the cause, I never fail to laugh at the photos of The People of Walmart. It's an entire site dedicated to photos of real people seen in WallyWorld. I don't think I need to say anything else.
