Gas For 18 Cents

Oklahoma gas station attendant make a data entry error, causing gas to be sold for 18 cents. Near riot ensues.

Johnny Carson Passes Away

I am sorry to learn that Johnny Carson has passed away. There were many a time that I stayed up to watch the Tonight Show, and while Leno does a good job, it's not the same. Conan O'Brien will even be worse. Frankly, I think NBC blew it by not having Dave Letterman succeed Carson. What they did is create competition for their own show.

Christmas

Up until now, I have been avoiding Christmas. I find it really annoying that all the stores start jamming Christmas down our throats before Halloween. This year a couple of local radio stations started broadcasting Christmas music 24x7 before Halloween. Well, today I went to a new Best Buy store that opened this week and they have a sale on CDs. I picked up a Christmas CD by the Trans-Siberian Orchestra. I also picked up a couple of Elton John CDs.

Please Say It Ain't So

So I am standing here in line at Starbucks waiting to order my morning carmel macchiato, and my little eye spies the Christmas cups they are now using.
