Pissing People off Department
Did you ever watch a movie and check out the credits? Did you ever notice that some names you can’t pronounce? Since all show biz people change their names, why don’t they use a name that’s easy to pronounce? After all, their audience is made up, for the most part, of people that need a laugh track while watching a sit-com to know how to respond.
Also speaking of movies, have you noticed the FBI warning that precedes the movie that states, “should not be duplicated under penalty of law”. Why doesn’t that warning apply to the producers of these films who get their ideas from such notables as Shakespeare, Robert Lewis Stevenson, Jane Austin, and the Grimm Brothers or for that matter, Jesus Christ? And not to mention, the remaking of such old classics as, Pride and Prejudice, Postman Always Rings Twice, Titanic, and everyone’s favorites Batman and Superman.
This year on February 2nd, 2007, the groundhog got politically correct, that is, he didn’t see his shadow; therefore, we will not have six more weeks of winter.
The West Pennsylvania Theater caved to the global warming nuts. Well, five weeks later, the average evening temperature this week is 20 degrees, we had a snow/ice storm last week and the ice on my pond will hold a car. Hell, there’s still snow in the wooded areas.
Since we have Driving Education in our high schools, why don’t we have a course on: “How to use a shopping cart”? For example, they should teach how to park the dam thing along the side of the aisle so people can get by. This inconsiderate moronic affliction seems to affect, for the most part, the female of the species. This same species will push the cart with their completed order right down the middle of the driving area of the parking lot, maybe they’re afraid some someone will jump out from between the parked cars and steal their soup.
I have also noticed a number are too lazy to put their empty carts in the area provided for them. I think, after at least three violations, these inconsiderate people should loose their shopping cart privilege and carry their stuff in their oversized “hand bag”.

I was in a Dollar Store some time ago to pick up some paper material. About six ladies were clustered around the greeting card display with, of course, their empty carts blocking the area pretty much completely.
One lady remarked to me:” It’s pretty crowded in here”. I responded to her, “Are you sure those 3 greeting cards are going to fit in your cart?”
