Alien in my Bathroom

Decided to show up in my vortex. I for one welcome our swirly denizens from deep space!

Hotel Lobby

I've got this sudden urge to listen to Tom Petty's Don't Come Around Here No More... By the way, I sat in those seats thinking it would be comfortable and they were far from it!

I can bring home the bacon...

Fry it up in the pan. And never let you forget you're a man! Cause I'm a woman... W-O-M-A-N!!!

Shroomin'

Every now and then, we get some of the most interesting looking mushrooms flower up in our backyard. Different colors and shapes, it's always a treat to see what shows up after a good hard rainfall. Can you tell what type of shroom I have? I sure don't know. I would appreciate it a lot. Enjoy!

BEWARE OF THE DOG!

Just an observation...

Someone is smiling but is it for the reason I think they're smiling?

Life in the 3.50s

I can't believe the price drops since earlier this summer. Can we head back to the 2.80s again?

Lines in Parallel

Sometimes you don't know what's around the corner but if you look closely, you'll see it's a path already taken by others.

Treading Water... I mean Gas

Still finding sub-$4.00 gas, but for how much longer?

Happy Independence Day!

I've decided to say Happy Independence Day instead of just Happy 4th of July because too many folks aren't reminded enough of how we attained the liberties we take for granted. Props to the men and women who gave us a reason to celebrate today!

Only in New York

Because Jersey drivers would have cleared it within inches of each other.

Very Cool Art

I like it when artsy things stand out. But of all places - Chipotle?! Nice!

The Airport at Newark/Liberty

Had to drop my dad off at the airport today. Drove for about 45 minutes and pulled into the departing gates section. I told him that I would be right back after I get the car parked. Now I haven't been to EWR in a long time (pre-9/11), my have things changed around here! When I finally found a spot to park, it was about 20 min. I had to walk the full length of this covered walkway, take the monorail, and find the area where I was supposed to meet him. Total time: 35 min. I barely saw him long enough to say goodbye as he left for the gate. (sigh)

Question.

How many BK employees does it take to make a Whopper? I overheard someone say, "Uh oh."

Nothing could be finer...

...than to be in South Carolina. We're road tripping to Jersey. Why? Because it's still cheaper than taking a bus for three (and safer), taking a train (which takes longer), or flying (9/11 tax, fuel tax, homeland tax, shoe tax, etc.). What's wrong with that picture?

What I found on the side of the road

As I went to my mailbox to gather the usual junk mail and bills, the sun managed to reflect at me from an unusual angle. I looked down and there she was. Not looking too good, it was a 30GB iPod that had been dropped from someone's car (by accident, I suppose) and run over various times by oncoming traffic. It never had a chance! Almost a sad moment, then THUNK! It went into the trash. Unless you pack rats think you can do so something worthwhile with it?

Happiness is...

A fresh marching line of Krispy Kreme donuts about to be boxed for my consumption! Yum! AND NO TRANS FAT!! (Like that was keeping me from eating them anyway.)

Business Card Holder

Cool looking business card holder. It's pretty heavy too. Wish I knew where it came from. I'd probably buy one as gifts for friends.

The Men's Room

From to time, I've noticed how iconic the men's room (and ladies) entrance have become. Almost to the point where it has become a topic of conversation from an artistic perspective. Don't believe me? Well, you are reading this aren't you? Anyway men have been iconocally portrayed as squares and angular while ladies are round and less angular. This door drives the point home. If you cannot tell this is the men's bathroom door then you are symbolically illiterate.
