GRAND OPENING.
|
Well,
my newsletter business is finally up and running. I'm now open for
business. The website is done, the articles are done, the marketing postcards are
ready to be mailed, the newsletter layout is done, the licenses are
being processed, and I've got all the supplies I need.
All I need now is some clients.
Heh.

|
WORKY STUFF.
|
SEPTEMBER 7TH.
|
|
I
talked to my old assistant manager/friend Elaine today. I hadn't talked
to her since Christmas, I think. She's back at CVS after a leave of
absence. She was telling me about AIM and inventories and DSD and all
sorts of worky-type stuff that I hadn't thought about in a loooooong
time.
Hmm. Nope. Still don't miss it.

Prediction
Time: My Padres are currently tied for first in the National League
West. So far so good. However, I predict they will be mathematically
eliminated from the playoffs on......September 7th.

|
FALLING DOWN LAUGHING.
|
WAY OUT IN RIGHT-CENTER.
|
|
Beth:
"Let's watch a DVD tonight."
Glenn: "Okay. What
do you want to watch?"
Beth: "How about a
comedy?"
Glenn: "Sounds good. Which comedy?"
Beth: "Let's watch 'Falling Down' with Michael
Douglas."
Glenn:
Beth: "Is that okay?"
Glenn: "Uh, yeah. Sure."
|
For
the first time I can remember, I was replaced in left field by someone
better than me (wasn't I just talking about this the other day?). Well, it
finally happened the other night in church ball. Hell,
I was demoted all the way to right-center field. But I can't complain.
I've always prided myself on being a Team Guy. And honestly, I
would have made the same coaching move.
I just wish I knew how to play
right-center...

BURNING SENSATION.
|
Grand
Opening, Burning Sensation, September 7th, Conspiracy Candy, The
Culprit, Falling Down Laughing, 829, Way Out In Right-Center, and Worky
Stuff. |
|
Last week, I burned my tongue in a most unusual way: I burned it on a
bag of sour candies. Believe it.
I was chomping away on candy called Rips, which are very sour jelly candies made by Impact Confections (they also make the more well-known candy WarHeads). Well, after about 15 pieces or so (yeah, I'm a pig), I began
to feel a burning sensation on my tongue. I looked in the bathroom
mirror and sure enough, I had a couple of raw spots on my tongue.
Ponderous indeed.

|
THE CULPRIT.
|
829.
|
CONSPIRACY CANDY.
|
|

Barney, Kenny, and I had an interesting conversation the other day
about credit scores. They had me thinking that someone
else could be using my identity and killing my credit, so Mortgage
Broker Kenny did a credit report for me.
And my score? A
whopping 829. Kenny said that out of the thousands of credit reports he's done, mine was in the top
ten of highest scores.
I
may be bald, old, unemployed, single, and allergic to bee stings, but at
least I've got damn good credit.
|
Rips
and the rest of the Impact Confections candy line are manufactured in
infamous Roswell, New Mexico. Coincidence? I think not.
