Black Friday Shopping

I have never been one to go out early on Black Friday and engage myself in fighting over crazy sale prices, however this year I gave it a shot.  I woke up before the crack of dawn to go to Walmart to get my daughter a Power Wheels BarbieJjeep for only $88. Wow what a great deal right? Those things are like  300 bucks normally, I had to try. Any way I get to the store, oh at 5:30 am to find out that they had no more left, but that I could get it online.  So I go home, I get online to find out that they are selling the really tiny Barbie Jeep for$88, not the Jammin Jeep.  Ps they were sold out online as well. I also find out that Walmart was advertising to open at 5 am but really was opened much earlier.  I was livid.  I will never go shopping on Black Friday again. I will pay the extra money.

Flip Flop Etiquette

Now that flip-flop season is over I can discuss , with great irritation, about those that flip and flop. It is not necessary, I have worn them since i was a toddler and never have I flipped or flopped. My three-year daughter doesn’t flop. Let me just tell those who have no good common sense, its annoying to hear you walk. Flip-flop flip-flop flip-flop, STOP it. Curl your toes, the flip-flop will follow your foot.

Topic what you put in your toilet? And why you shouldn’t! 

My name is Curtis and I have a public annoyance.  People need to think twice about what they flush down their toilets. I firmly believe that people have the mix conception that anything made of a paper like material, can be flushed. Wrong! You women who flush their pads down, stop! Those mothers who constantly keep trying to flush diapers down, quit it. They don’t breakdown and just get stuck in the pipe. Parents, keep a really close eye on your kids. Cell phones, barbies, GI-Joes, car keys, and fluffy, the stuffed animal will just cause you head aches and make me money, every time. Missing your dvd remote? I’ve found it. Missing your glasses? I’ve found those too. You have no idea how many broken sewer pipes, I’ve fixed, that could have been avoided if  people would just think about what they are flushing down the toilet, before doing it or watched little Johnny or Susy a little closer. Even baby wipes and hemroids pads, don’t decompose. They just sit in the pipe and clog them up. I realize that it seems easier to just toss them into the toilet, cause you’re sitting on it when using them, but again, most houses that i go in, have a trash can right there next to the toilet. I’m hitting your knee, right there. So I hope anyone who reads this walks away just a little bit more aware and I won’t have to come to their house and find something that shouldn’t belong. 

People in Walmart

So have you ever gone into Wal-mart and seen someone who looks like they belong in a Wal-mart? Of course you have, we all have (and bet some or us are people of Wal-Mart)! apparently there is a whole website devoted to that topic. My question is who has that kind of time? What person or persons are going around snapping pictures of people in Wal-mart? Don’t get me wrong the web site is hilarious, but where did it come from. Then it also makes me kind of afraid. I do not dress up to go to Wal-Mart, what if I end up on this web-site.(I check often of course.) I mean if I am sick or something i just run in with my sweats on , hair all a mess (sometimes when I am not sick also). Any way visit the site http://www.peopleofwalmart.com, and lets compile our own characteristics of people of Wal-Mart. Also tell me about your experiences at seeing people that belong at Wal-Mart or being a being one.

Navigating a Traffic Circle

Up the street from my house they just put a new traffic circle and I am amazed at how many people have forgotten how to use one. It is real simple, If you are on the circle you have the right away, if you are merging on to the circle you yeild. In fact there are even yeild signs for people merging. It seems that the definition of yeild is confusing some people. Yeild means to slow down and check if someone is comimg, if there is someone coming then you stop until it is clear. Also if you on the circle please dont dtop st every merge. You are holding up traffic. This is not rocket science it is simple traffic laws. Get out your old dusty DMV book and reread the section on traffic circle. You would think this would not have to be said.
