What about the ones that aren't red? I like the green swedish fish. But I hate gummi bears and most other gummi candy. Strange.

And that is a lot of swedish fish. Did you have a healthy meal today? Don't eat them all in one sitting. You could get sick!

:shame:

As far as the free thing, if the normal swedish fish amount is 14 oz, and they added 2 oz, of course, you got 2 oz for free, or if they lowered the price so that you are only paying for 14 oz and not 16, you got 2 for free.

That or its you know, a gimmick.

Bn(really didn't sleep enough last night)B
No. You paid for 14 ounces, which the normal package size, but which is so grossly inflated pricewise that they can afford to 'give' you an extra two ounces 'free'.

It's particularly disgusting for them to prey on a helpless innocent consumer's sweet tooth by doing this scum-sucking price-gouging with treats. Capitalist fat-cat extortionist leech bastards, living off the hard-won pennies of the overworked associate class...

They will after their implants, makeup, bleach jobs, lip collagen shots, bikini waxes and intensive airbrushing.

Oh I don't know, the local walmart has some cute little things running around. They are invariably blonde and bubbly. Either that or they are grey haired and not so bubbly, but I doubt playboy will want people as old as you are.

I mean we all know what those sexy red smocks do for a woman. Do you think they will make them wear them in the playboy photos?

And how long before the women who do pose get fired?

kegs revisited
 
At approximately 11:30 on Saturday night, I rediscovered a few things about kegs. A party that I was attending ended and more guests at the party had choosen to drink wine and some sort of green liquor drink in a martini glass than beer. My house was the closest to reconvine with the remains of the keg.
  • Half-full kegs are still fucking heavy.
  • Some people have a sort of "free beer" radar and will materialize upon the mere suggestion that there might be beer nearby.
  • Tapping a keg is like riding a bike. It's been years, but we immediately knew how to do it.
  • People have very strong opinions about whether or not a pitcher should be used so we don't have to keep going outside for more beer. More people in my sample quite surprisingly chose fresher beer over laziness.
  • The St. Arnold Lawnmower is quite tasty.
  • Houston is surprisingly pleasant outside from the hours of 11:30 PM to 4:50 am in mid-September, especially if one has a front porch, a fair number of people, and some alcohol.
  • A keg party in your late-twenties / early-thirties is a hell of a lot less messy than the same party with the same people in your late-teens/early-twenties. It's a lot less noisy too, though I am glad that the neighbors on either side of my house were out of town this weekend.
  • You will, however, still end up with people crashing on your couches / chairs that night/morning.
  • It is possible to end two parties without having finished off the keg.
  • A quarter full keg is still fucking heavy.

There's a quarter full, tapped twice, ice melted away keg in my backyard if anyone wants to come over.

So I could have answered my own fucking question...

Based on the article you linked to, never. I mean, how would a Walmart manager know you had posed? Surely the employees of a family-oriented store like Walmart don't read Playboy? (Bleech).

Possibly, but frankly none of those folks stick in my memory, beyond the scary, hard-of-hearing retiree greeters. ("HI, THERE, SONNY -- WELCOME TO WALMART!") I'm hoping that this isn't what PB is going for.

So quickly that the magazine will run captions alongside little Brittany and Angela reading "Former Wal-Mart stock clerk, Marionsville, Indiana." Maybe they can arrange to have it printed on their thongs before the photo shoot.

I've been in a Walmart once, in 1993 somewhere in Georgia when we were driving and it started raining so hard we could no longer drive (felt like we were boating). So we pulled over to a Walmart and ran in. This toothless bent-over old goat with a really thick accent yelled "HEY Y'ALL WELCOME TO WALMART!!" at us and practically jumped on top of us. I had never been to the south before and never encountered a "greeter" before, so it was pretty scary.

As for Carnivale, blech. I don't understand how a show with so many dramatic elements could be so dull. Exciting things happened in the most boring ways.
Variety reported last week that the House (or somebody) passed a resolution (or something) banning K Street (specifically mentioned by name) from filing in the Capitol.

Too lazy to look up specific details and facts. This is the extent of my recollection and it'll have to do.

there's apparently a long-standing law/policy against filming in the capitol. Members were reminded of this ban after K street did its first week of filming. K St. may have been mentioned only as a "in light of recent events it becomes necessary to remind everyone that . . . " way

You force me to relate my first-day-living-in-Texas Walmart story. Wench.

Anyway, I was on the obligatory shower curtain, cleaning supply, etc run that accompanies all moves and was standing in line in a Dallas-area Walmart behind a drunk, tooth-impaired woman (it was noon-ish on a weekday). She was annoying the person in front of her and got bored with that I guess, so she turned around and started talking to me. She decided that she had forgotten an important item (coffee maker, I believe), so she got right up in my fac and said: "Could you hold ma place in line? I'll be right back I promise. You can tell me to go to hell if youwampto."

I held her place in line. Didn't tell her to go to hell. Have not returned to Walmart since. Thank god for Target!

I don't get it. Isn't the point of diapers to 'catch' all the stuff that the young 'uns are too young to leave in the toilet (or behind the tree) by themselves. Why spend money on them, why not let junior/ette run around with nothing at all on the bottom?

My understanding is that in China, young'uns are toilet trained early by allowing them unfettered access to bodily functions at all times. It doesn't make sense to me either, but its how they do it.

I just realized that I had mentally merged Carmen Electra and Denise Richards into the same person. Not in a cool sexy way either (sorry, leagl). That's why I was so confused reading that Electra was engaged to Dave Navarro, because I thought she recently married Charlie Sheen. And in related news, Denise Richards is pregnant with a carouser spawn (but not, I think, Dave Navarro's spawn). Anyway, carry on.
