well those of us that are all, wal-mart is the devil stealin jobs from hard working american business owner, yadda yadda yadda
im sorry but i like to be able to pick up a gallon of milk, a jug of my white cranberry and strawberry ocean spray, a dozen lemon poppyseed muffins, a boxset of dvds, shampoo and super cool new star wars toys all in one stop. it makes my life easy.
but i digress
indeed while there are some I know who shake their fists mightily at wal-mart that is as far as it goes
in virginia though, they call in bomb threats
seriously
so there I am with my karon on valentines day and we stopped in to pick up a dvd that she was looking for on our way back from dinner. So first sweep through the electronics section we find its spot but not it, however, I note that some employee is pretending to be restocking so it might be out in a little bit. So we do some wandering and hit the toy section where i find this wicked keen chibi star wars scout trooper with speeder bike i have to have. Then off to crafty bits where karon decides she wants some yarn and needles for knitting it. So we can't think of anything else so we head to check out with a quick swing through the dvds again and low I did find it for my lovely lady. Moving along we hit the check out lanes. There was like three people on us, gut said hit another lane to accelerate our departure but I was happy waiting with my girl. So a few minutes go by karon checks out with her yarn and needles and I step up with the toy and dvd. Cashier starts to scan items and we are told that we have to leave the building in an orderly fashion that they are sorry for our inconvenience yadda yadda.
Curious
so we step outside waiting for an explanation. we are told we have to go all the way up the hill. um kay. so we get over to where the employees are hanging out and find out that it was a bomb threat. Not just that, but the third one in as many weeks. Also I was informed that it would take two and a half hours for the police to sweep the store once they arrived.
Well fuck.
So we went back to the apartment and watched the first episode of it the show we were gonna buy that she had tivo'd
for the record west virginia and kentucky are both very pretty
virginia was ok too but i was there for the company not the scenery
so i get home last night and go to send my woman a hey i made it home alive email and my comp would not boot
baka
so today on my way home from school i stopped at office dept and made an emergency computer replacement. its a sleek new emachine with a 2 gigahertz processor, 160 gig hard drive, 512 megs of ddr, a shiny geforce vid card. and most important, it fucking runs.
so yeah im back on the internet and trying to download my shit again
dear god does dial up suck for that
-Chuck Norris tried to save president kennedy from the gunman by kicking the bullets out of the air, but it was so fucking cool looking that it made JFK's head explode.
