by 8:40 they were sold out

There was a HUGE crowd outside the downtown Target store this morning. At least 500 rubes, maybe more, all waiting for the store to open so they could run in and buy the newest Cities Sampler disc. I suppose on one hand it's good to see so many people because the proceeds from the album go to charity, but let me tell you this: when you're kicking ass through the skyways on your way work and you haven't had your coffee yet and your shoe has already come untied twice on the way there, you're in no mood to fight your way through a massive crowd of adult-contempo fans who - for reasons I will never, ever, understand - think they need to hear even more of Jason Mraz singing 'The Remedy'.

MOOOOOOOOVE!

Anyway, as is habit, 8 minutes after getting to work, I went to get a cup of coffee. While outside, I saw this dude on the street carrying a target bag with 3 CDs in it. He was talking on his cellphone. "It was crazy. I haven't seen anything like this since Furby."

Ha. Furby. That thing ruled. Mood improved.
