Thursday Random Thoughts 2/25/10

Stuff I have been thinking about:

-Have you ever seen a Chick-Fil-A drive thru that isn't jammed around lunchtime? Heck no you haven't because that place is mobbed. I bet that franchise makes a mint.

-I think that I may be having a bad hair life.

-I heard the Lady Antebellum song "Need you Now" the other day and it made me start thinking. One of the lines in the song says that she would rather hurt than feel nothing at all. Interesting question. Would you rather feel hurt rather than nothing at all? I'm not sure I would.

-The makers of disposable razor blades that charge $8000 for a refill cartridge ought to be ashamed of themselves. Yes I am talking about you Gillette!

-I'm thinking that if I didn't have a child in a car seat that I need to get in and out of my car from time to time I would buy a Mini-Cooper. Great on gas and fun to drive. Something to think about as I am going to be getting a new car in the next year or so.

-I work in the insurance industry and from time to time I hear about odd and interesting things. It seems that recently a certain pseudo-celebrity product endorser was recently in an accident where he was a passenger in a car that was hit and he was slightly injured. I probably can't tell you who it was but I guarantee that you would know exactly who I was talking about.

-Remember back a few weeks ago when I was almost run over coming out of Subway by a UM fan? Well I had a Deja-vu sort of. Monday I went for a $5 footlong and as I am exiting the Subway there is a car coming at me with a Florida Gator license plate. I refused to leave the sidewalk until that car was way out of the way... I know how crazy those Gators are!

-BTW this note is to Paige of Starting all Over Again. I am not ignoring your blog... For some strange reason my work computer eats any comments I try and make. I bet I tried 4-5 times the other day to comment on your post about the house inspection.

- I had a customer in my follow up list the other day whose last name was 'Faile' How bad is it that the first thing I thought about was that would be a cool name to have on your Twitter account?

-My wife sure does make good chocolate chip cookies!

-I got a spam e-mail the other day that said it was sent from "El Bano de Espinoza" and I had to laugh. Now I don't know a whole lot of Spanish but I do know that I guess I just got an e-mail from the toilet of Espinoza. I think the spammer meant to send it from the Banco de Espinoza. LOL!

-As the Olympics are starting to wind to a close I have gotten a bunch of web traffic because of posts and rants about the lack of success of the US curling team. The best however is someone who found YJKOBT by a google search of the terms "John Shuster Cage Match"

-My prediction for the 4 people going home tonight on American Idol should be Lacey Brown, Tim Urban, Jermaine Sellers, and Haeley Vaughn. Now who really goes home who knows. After week one the Best female singer is Katie Stevens and best male is Casey James.

Until next week...
