So I just remembered that Denny's is giving away free Grand Slam breakfasts tomorrow. How many of you are going to fight the crowds for a $5 breakfast? I think I'll look for an IHOP -- it should be pretty empty tomorrow AM.

Yak! Its Dennys!
But some people will do ANYTHING for something free....even if it is greasy bacon and runny eggs.
You guys ever watch that show called True Beauty? This week they are out in the "wild" and I am getting a pretty big kick out of it.

Wassup Peeps?
On another note,
My wife has a seperated AC joint (its the joint where your collar bone is held to your outer shoulder). Back in Nov. when we were putting up the Christmas tree, shee reached into the bag to bring out a branch, and the joint seperated. At the time we thought she just pulled a muscle, or maybe had a pinched nerve. Well long story short is, I have tried to get her to go to the doc for 2 months now, and she wouldnt because she was afraid that she couldnt get a sub to prepare her classes for their finals. Well finals are done and I finally got her to go to the doc last thursday. They did the xrays, and hav enow decided that an MRI is in order and most likely surgery to follow (its not just strained, or partially seperated, the whole tendon/cartiledge is ripped in two). The orthopedist will be there for the MRI and will read it immediatley on Wed to determine which surgery will be needed. So we shall see.

Is it just me or are these people that think a tax refund is free money crazy?
It's not free money. You already had to earn it. The government is just giving some back since they realized they took too much.

People just get excited come tax time because its money they would not have been able to save otherwise. Its like you have a savings account you can only access once a year.

Um...anyone with an IQ below 50 should realize that a refund is a refund you're owed by the system.

I tell them "I have a job. Get one. You get money."
Then they whine some more so I ask how many concerts they went to in the last year. "Oh. Maybe 10?" Ask them how much the tickets were. "About 50 dollars" "So thats 500$ of tickets right?" "Yea, but what has that got to do with anything?" *D'OH!*
I am afraid for my generation. (For the most part. Exceptions include Jake and Nick.)
