Rats. The pics are from my friend's Picasa web account. Maybe this link to all the kitty pics will work:

In Wal-mart, in the book section, there are two prevalant sections:

That Vampire series, what's it called, "I was a teenage vampire" or "Betoothed" or "Nightlight" or whatever the hell it's called...right next to...

God Squad books, books about how you can improve your life by giving yourself to the lord, self-help for fibromyalgia through prayer, how to lose 500 pounds by eating Cheetos in the name of the lord...etc and so on.

Whatcha need? Some Vampires or some lordz?

Apparently you spend too much time at Wal-mart if you know where all those books are. <raspberry>

Shawnee123 · 08-31-2009, 09:50 AM

I was hoping for an oasis of intelligence. Yes I was in there, looking for a (gasp) book!

Clearly, I am much too hopeful.

classicman · 08-31-2009, 10:09 AM

lol - now now... Oasis would be under "O". It wouldn't be near the vampire books.

skysidhe · 08-31-2009, 12:26 PM

lol @ betoothed!

123...the grade level of the books one can find over the counter is embarrassing. I too have tried to find a book at wal-mart, rite aid. I have decided I will have to use amazon or drive 20 minutes to Borders books.

We have a few used bookstore and the collections of each reflect the interest of the owner. The one close to me is filled with sci-fi material.

*sigh*

You forgot the "romance" section. And the spanish language section.

I've found quite a few books at Wal-mart. Mostly popular series; sometimes mystery or horror or SF, and they're cheap.

Not much selection, however, unless you are a fan of one of the big categories.

It's actually a brilliant solution. One I'll be suggesting to my vet. Prolly wouldn't work for a big old German Shepherd, but kitties and small dogs would surely be much happier in jammies than in one of those conehead things.

keep the kitties indoors for safety and long life

keep everyone indoors for safety and long life

A woman who worked as a paralegal in an adjacent office was indicted and arrested for allegedly embezzling over $200,000 from former employer.

She worked in our building for about 6 months and then was fired, but there were rumors about her even then.

Oy.

The Himbo is amusing me today.

It was his birthday and he had two days off (his bday and the one after), he called to abuse me for not sending a Happy Birthday sms (I did say Happy Bday as soon as he called)....to which I replied I knew he was spending the day with his family and gf...so thought I would leave him alone.

A couple of the girls at work and I bought him a full length mirror for his office and wrote on it in lipstick.

Now, it was a *take the piss* present obviously, because he enjoys looking at himself so much, but he was sooooo grateful that we bought it and spent an hour trying to figure out where was the best place to put it...."because I dont want my customers to think Im weird or anything....with a full length mirror in my office".

Before he hung it, he carried it around the office trying to figure out how he could look at his own arse whilst he was walking and when any of us talked to him...he would lift the mirror in front of himself and point it as us...which was disconcerting and then he would say ..."Are you talking to yourself?"...which was goofy but funny.

The boy is lucky he has looks going for him.
