Man do I feel dumb....

Ok, so my car has been acting funny recently, feeling really sluggish and tired when I try to accelerate. For a while, I thought I was just imagining it, but as it got progressively worse, I knew something wasn't right. So when I took the car in to the shop to get it inspected, I had the mechanic take a look at it.

And apparently, I'm a big moron. The problem was that the rug had been pushed up so far that it was getting in the way of the accelerator. Now it's all better. But my run has wrinkles and marks where it was squished.


On the plus side, I think it's gotta be a pretty honest mechanic to actually tell me that, and not say it was something expensive like a broken... erm... part.

Oy!

And so it begins...

All in favor of forcing florida to secede.... I!

Britney and the other pop wunderkind

From someone's review of the AMA, echoing many of my sentiments on the subject...

"Britney Spears opened the show, and prior to this the buzz consisted of whether or not she'd gone as far as she could with the scant clothing routine and was in fact going to perform an "all nude" review this time out. Of course I exaggerate. She didn't, but give her time. Where else can she go? Instead, she badly lip-synced her ho hum number and did a typical Madonna inspired Bump and Grind with her dancers, eventually leaving the stage unceremoniously via an ascending rope."

And the best part:

"How many more of these semi-nude, auto-tuned, reverb drenched, triple vocal tracked, sex obsessed… Dancers, with belly buttons more impressive than vocal ability, do we have to put up with before the whole thing implodes? It's demise can't come too soon for my money."

He also calls Britney and the gang "forgettable, disposable pre-fab Pop schlock." Right on brother! Amen.
