  • IT’S TIME FOR A LITTLE BREAK

     

    Have you ever gotten to that point in your life where something has just got to give a little in order to make room for everything else? I’ve been feeling that way a lot lately. Work and other commitments are crowding up on me to the point that at least a few things are just going to have to be set aside for awhile.

     

    I’m afraid one of those is going to have to be Xanga.

     

    I realize that anyone reading my posts would assume that I couldn’t possibly spend anytime writing them, but I’m slow, and spewing nonsense is taking up time I can’t afford right now. I’m not going away forever…just for the summer. I’ll be back in the fall and I promise to write posts even dumber than usual.

     

    I hope everyone has a great summer. I’ll miss everyone while I’m gone.

  • IT’S ALL IN THE NAME

     

    I took the following picture about a block from my office:

    While this has been the operational motto for men since the dawn of time it still seems like an unfortunate choice for a convenience store chain.

     

    Right around the corner from the above pictured Kum & Go is a Chinese food delivery service called “Takee-Outee.”

     

    In a way, “Takee-Outee” and “Kum & Go” both kind of imply the same thing.

     

    However, my all-time favorite business name isn’t in Oklahoma yet. It is the Scottsdale Arizona based Mexican restaurant the “Pink Taco.” I would SO eat there.

     

    Actually, I have eaten there in a manner of speaking.

     

    Ok…I’ll get my mind out of the gutter now. Have a great weekend!
