| You Are Krusty the Clown | 
You were the class clown as a kid, and you still entertain people.
From faking your own death to getting a wacky boob job, you'll do anything for a laugh.
You will be remembered for: your face being everywhere, from cereal to home pregnancy tests
Your life philosophy: "I heartily endorse this event or product." |

Wierdest Rite-Aid Shopping Experience On Earth Ever. I hope.
There was the requisite little asian guy running around buying all the things you don't want to see someone buy together. I saw him look at bleach, diapers, dog food, and tampons.
There was a 40 year old woman who told me her life story husband left her for a man, divorced, despirate for a young man in her life. She insisted I take her number, just in case.
Then there was the girl I talked to at the club the other night, turns out she told me her real name.
In the checkout line was another woman who told me she was ten years older than me in the first sentance she said, while trying to strike up a meaningful conversation about TV Guide. I'm sorry, I just can't flirt about TV Guide with someone born in 1970. I'm not Frank Costanza.
I think I gotta go to Ralph's from now on. |

Goddamn I needed that.
I went to the desert over the weekend with a friend who had a new bike. Here's him riding the bike.
I never got going that fast, but it was still fun. I saw a UFO.
Okay, well.
It was a model airplane. Still, fucking cool. Like the Ice Cream Truck In The Middle Of Fucking Nowhere.
So, yeah, I'm refreshed, alive, energized, running, etc. It was fun. |

| I Wish I'd Had My Camera |

Last night at the 76 near my house while walking by I noticed the amount of gas the previous customer had purchased was 31.337 gallons. I need to carry my camera with me at all times for moments like that. |

I love you eBay.
I really do love eBay. If it had a vagina we would have the best night ever. It's made me some SaveMyAssCash this week, which I despirately needed because of people not paying their bills. (They owe 10% extra, don't cry for me California.)
But eBay has just saved my ass in a way I can't explain. I took some bad digital photos, and eliminated some of my inventory of Excess Crap which has acumulated within my rented room over the past several years.
Thank you eBay, and your little bitch Ms. PayPal. You are my Jebus. |

I wish. Wayne's just cooking some tacos, and the salsa is so hot my lips are just burning.
Fucking great food, someone needs to give this guy a restaurant. He can cook anything, and he's my roommate. Score!
I need more salsa. |

"Community preparedness is something that really is up to each individual." - San Diego city emergency management planner, who also said they don't generally plan for big disasters.
The more he said, the more I realized why New Orleans turned out how it did. Emergency planning is apparently best left to people who don't think. It explains why the Cedar Fire (see icon) got so bad. |

| Great Article About New Orleans |

Two days after Hurricane Katrina struck New Orleans, the Walgreen's store at the corner of Royal and Iberville streets remained locked. The dairy display case was clearly visible through the widows. It was now 48 hours without electricity, running water, plumbing. The milk, yogurt, and cheeses were beginning to spoil in the 90-degree heat. The owners and managers had locked up the food, water, pampers, and prescriptions and fled the City. Outside Walgreen's windows, residents and tourists grew increasingly thirsty and hungry.
The much-promised federal, state and local aid never materialized and the windows at Walgreen's gave way to the looters. There was an alternative. The cops could have broken one small window and distributed the nuts, fruit juices, and bottle water in an organized and systematic manner. But they did not. Instead they spent hours playing cat and mouse, temporarily chasing away the looters.
We were finally airlifted out of New Orleans two days ago and arrived home yesterday (Saturday). We have yet to see any of the TV coverage or look at a newspaper. We are willing to guess that there were no video images or front-page pictures of European or affluent white tourists looting the Walgreen's in the French Quarter.
Written by two EMS workers who were in town for the storm, and their account of getting out. Very well written. |

Officials with the San Diego Fire Department say a wildfire is burning in Rancho Penasquitos and that some homes are threatened by the blaze.
The picture was taken in my backyard a few minutes ago. The tiny dot is one of the helicopters now flying over. |
