I'll buy that for a dollar!

Well techinically, we were at the 99 cent store. And if wasn't surprised enough to see Necco Wafers on my right, there was this whole thing of condoms on my left! (oooo... dual pleasure) Not to be snobbish about something as important as prophylactic protection, but condoms for 99 cents is either a great deal, or the surest way to a paternity hearing. Getting back to Necco Waffers, I've never even tried them, but for some reason I know about them. Like they're somehow part of the American historical fabric. Are they a midwest thing? Do they taste good? Do they taste like ass? Please let me know! Because not only are they only 99 cents, apparently they're fat free as well. And is it just me, or do they look like road flares?

Sorry to be all Andy Rooney, but does anyone know about the history behind the saying, "beating a dead horse"? For whatever random reason, I thought, where the heck does that come from, and why would anything be equated to beating a dead animal? Why not beating a dead dog, cat, squirrel, or donkey? "Stop beating a dead donkey, I've heard enough!!"

Ah well, it would seem that I have more questions than answers. Such is life.

p.s. I went a little crazy this weekend and replaced all my hand-me-down dinnerware with stuff that I liked from you guessed it, TARGET!!

p.p.s Now that I know waht the fuck a "charger" is, Martha Stewart had better watch her back!
