Oh Yeah! … More Crows

Oh Yeah! … More Crows

What conclusions would you make?

- A huge guy is in the SuperMart.  He is wearing all kinds of motorcycle leather and he’s buying three trays of gourmet cat food.  The kind that comes in little cans.  And the top of the boxes are cut off, so all the little cans are just loose in the box.  AND that’s all he’s buying!   ???

- Again speaking of the Super-di-dooper-SuperMart, why are all the colors and designs of nearly every product, so goddamned ugly?!!  I was trying to find some bed sheets.  Leopard stripes and fifty shades of purple? 

- I have a good friend who has a car with the right-hand rearview mirror missing.  Just clipped right off.  This has been the case for at least three years.  How has she gotten past the State Safety Inspection?  You have to take your car in every year to make sure the state doesn't think it's too big a piece of shit to let out on the highways.  I got a Warning Ticket once for a loose license plate!!!  She is young and attractive – I am not - ???

- I live in a very rural and southern part of a very southern state.  Poverty and alcoholism are big problems here.  Very big problem.  During an AA meeting the parking lot at the community center is full, full.  I am not a member, but I drive right past it every Thursday evening going home from work.  On my drive home from work, about twenty miles, I pass no less than ten churches.  I mean it!  Ten Churches in twenty miles!!  Ten churches and the community center where the AA meeting is held and no bars!  We got GOD in abundance and NO liquor!  Somebody is falling down on the job, maybe???

- In my town the Public Library is in a strip mall.  In this strip mall is a pizza joint, a Thai restaurant,  a Dollar Store, a used clothing consignment store and a tattoo parlor.  The parking lot is generally full and the library is generally empty.  ???

- About three years ago a tornado ripped through our county.  It only touched down in two places.  It hit a local grammar school – demolished it! Nothing left but a pile of bricks and twisted school buses.  (It was very late in the day and nobody was at the school – no injuries).  Then it took off the main part of a local Methodist Church.  All that was left was the end of the church where the podium was.  The rest was just gone!  Within six months the church was completely restored, the school remains an empty field.  ???

- On television, watching a crime drama – at a meeting of three detectives, the head detective guy hands two actors a piece of paper.  On it is supposed to be the details of a criminal's record.  One actor is reading the paper by holding it vertically; the other actor is holding the paper horizontally???  (I’m sorry but that really bothered me and I am not OCD.)

- I have heard it before, but then I started noticing it and it is true;  during TV dramas when actors are having a conversation on the phone (cell phone), they do their little actor script lines and then they just hang up.  No Good-bye” or “See ya later” or “Catch on the flip side” – nothing!  Just “flip” phone clips shut.  Rude???
