Bitching about stuff...and a prayer
1) Saw a minivan with the rear window soaped with the phrase "Seriosly Seniors 2007". Seriously, you seniors will have a hard time graduating with that level of spelling.
2) Please...I beg of you....I am groveling...please, oh God, please...USE YOUR TURN SIGNALS. For the luv a' Christ, use your damn turn signal. Oh, God, PLEASE....
3) I am beginning to realize that the Stop signs in the Kohl's parking lot in Westbrook are there primarily for legal reasons. As in: when some 86 year old with hearing problems gets run over by a soccer mom in a hurry to pick up their soccer playing tykes, the store has a built in excuse: "Well, heck, Mr. Coroner/Police Officer/Reporter/Disctict Attorney. We HAD Stop signs put in place. It can't be OUR fault that no on ever stopped." Folks don't even bother to slow down at that particular Kohl's.
I guess I'm the only one in Southern Maine that stops at all stop signs. Because I see the same thing happening when I go to the York Hannaford's. There's a stop sign in their parking lot that apparently magically transforms into the phrase "Accelerate Now!" to all the soccer moms in their massive tank-like SUVs. Man, I bet they wish they could mount a sub-machine gun up there. THAT would sure clear the riff raff outta' their way, huh?
4) The BK's near the Maine Mall today served me a nice long white hair with a cheeseburger around it, as Elaine Benes would say. Can't WAIT to never eat there again. GROSSSSSSSS.
5) One question I have is: Will this be the first Red Sox team since 1997 to finish under .500? And how far has Theo Epstein's star fallen in the baseball world, now that this year can officially be termed a disaster?
5) David Ortiz, as has been said in so many places in the last few days, has been the best thing to happen to the Sox since Ted Williams. He is that good, but also he appears to be a genuinely awesome guy that is loved by his teammates. No one with any sense of the history of Boston sports is feeling good right now.
