You can drop hints but they don't catch

I know it's been a long time for my lone loyal reader and my other reader who clicks the links because he's bored at work. Tough. If I didn't keep losing my idea pad this would be easier to write than a poem of lust. First I can start with my idea to make my first million dollars. No lie, I'm dead serious about this one. I was watching TV last week and this girl on the news said something completely un-educated about our current political situation in D.C. And then it hit me. I told my mom I wanted to make a documentary about the lack of common sense that goes on in our country. Or the fact of how stupid people really are in making choices in everyday life. Like driving 10 miles out of your way because gas is 2 cents cheaper or trying out for American Idol when you should realize that if you had the talent to sing, a record would already be released in your name.

Crackheads amuse me. My brother saw one dancing on the corner of main street to an ipod with a huge grin on his face. He drove around the block to watch him dance more.

A 17 year old girl totaled my brothers car last week when she ran a red light. And I got a ticket for failure to yield. How's that work?

I answered the phone at work on saturday and the man asked if we were open. Example #1 for my documentary.

People are cheap. Everyone wants everything done for free or next to nothing. Some lady thought she could get a 6 foot sub for 15 bucks (price per foot) at my brothers deli. So she orders 2 and begins to complain when she finds out she owes $190. Example #2. Same thing at my store. People complain about a 30 cent price increase on a 12 pack and won't let it go until they get their 30 cents back. One guy wanted me to include to tax (which comes to a grand total of 33 1/2 cents). Get a life. Example #3.

Some things just don't work they way you would like them to.

Hooah.
