My Old Car

So I'm at Smoothie King one morning...working, because that's what I tend to do there...make smoothies, office work, customer service etc. and BAM there it was...my old car being driven down the street. It was passing right by the store front windows. It was my actual old car not a car like mine, with the lady who bought it from me driving it. She looked happy and was getting to where she needed to go. I was proud of my old car for holding up for her...

String Cheese

This blog is dedicated to my one and only friend in Muncie, Indiana...Beth!

String Cheese...It's SO good! Though I noticed something today. I don't string it anymore. For me it's more like cheese on a stick now. Sure, I remember as a child actually thinking that by pulling at the top of the cheese cylinder and attempting to make sting cheese was the ONLY way to eat it permitted by law. Now I'm so in a hurry and such that I just take bites from my "string" cheese. Then I thought to myself...if I bite all my cheese snacks...what is the difference between string cheese and cheese blocked or cubed? None really. Then it dawned on me what a great marketing ploy by the cheese marketing guys. BRILLIANT!! I wonder how string cheese melts compared to Velveta?

One Liner...

A guy came into Smoothie King and asked for Jr. Banana Split for $.99...no lie! I sold him a mango kids kup for $2.11 instead.

Keep Reading

You know if you keep looking there is humor in EVERYTHING.

So I have a friend that is looking at jewelry online...And though I'm not looking to make a jewelry purchase I do like to surf the web looking for a great deal (don't we all want to be a shopping hero really?) and when you're looking for anything online you always find yourself at ebay.com at one point. Anyway, I got inspired to look too and attached to an item I was looking at had this disclaimer with it...in regards to the return policy. Keep in mind 1) Keep reading [I know it's long] 2) It's regarding a piece of jewelry 3) This is real. ENJOY!

REFUNDS/EXCHANGES:All sales are final. Refunds/exchanges will be made ONLY in the event that the item is not as represented in the auction. If such a misrepresentation is claimed, you must contact us within 5 days of receipt of item. Additionally, the return must be accompanied by written appraisal from a professional jeweler confirming the discrepancy claimed. UNACCEPTABLE reasons for refund/exchange include: A) "I changed my mind." B) "I know what I bid, but I don't feel like paying that much." C) "I didn't read the entire description until after I won the item." D) "I had a fight with my significant other and won't be giving the item to him/her after all." E) "I found another one somewhere else." F) "Item was severely damaged when I dropped it into the kitchen garbage disposal." G) "My astrologer says if I wear this item I will suffer really bad karma and be reborn as a carrot cake on Bill Gates's dinner table." H) "The Air Force is suing me because the glare from the bling was so bright it caused a fighter pilot to go blind and crash, and they want fifty trillion dollars to replace the super secret experimental antimatter jet he was flying." I) "My dog ate it." J) "I didn't buy it from YOU, but it's similar to something you sell, so give me a refund anyway." K) "Space aliens placed the bid telepathically through my eBay account, so it's not MY bid." Seriously folks, we're not unreasonable -- but we do take your bid as a legally binding contract (as per eBay's policy), and we request that you do the same.
