- A dude selling bulldog puppies out of the back of his truck over in Linden Hills. He was holding up a "For Sale" sign in one hand and an actual live puppy in the other. The sign had a phone number on it. Go figure, the number was area code 715 - Eau Claire, WI.
- A guy buying no fewer than 200 bottles of spices at Penzey's. Seriously, like 200 bottles. Yeah, ok, I get it, you're "spicy", that's clever. Now please get out of my way, I just need some chili powder and a vanilla bean and my kid is starting to get whiny.
- One of the houses in the neighborhood is under *massive* construction. One of those "jack it up and pour a new foundation and then add a story and maybe connect it to the garage or something" type of deals. Well they jacked it up yesterday and today when I drove by half the house had fallen off. Whoops.
- Some doof sitting in his car in the Target paring lot stuffing Krispy Kreme donuts in his face after playing soccer. Oh wait, that was me.
Adi thought:
How do you play soccer when it is so freaking cold outside.. shouldnt you be packed up and playing 'whats that sport called.. ' oh yeah.. broomball these days.
dave thought:
our broomball team captain and his wife decided to take a season off and nobody else stepped up to organize it. mostly because finding a female replacement would have been basically impossible. ergo no team, ergo no easy wins for the rest of the league. ah, well.
and soccer is indoors you southern doof.
