Ring Ring Ring Ring Ring Ring Ring, Banana Camera Phone
by Scott Hardie on November 4, 2009

I need to get a camera phone. I keep seeing things that I want to take a picture of, but I don't bring my camera with me, and even if I did, I wouldn't be fast enough with it. Yesterday I pulled up behind a landscaping truck that had one of those "how's my driving?" bumper stickers, but you couldn't see the number because the entire back bumper was bashed into a crater shape.

The picture I want to share with you is of a Walgreens. There are a lot of Walgreens stores around here. I think they comprise around 90% of the economy of Sarasota. It's now getting to the point where they are literally building a new Walgreens in the parking lot of an existing Walgreens. I fear no one will believe me without a photo, but it's true.

Mystery Gift

Thank you, Johnson, whoever you are. I received what I presume is a birthday gift hand-labeled from someone named "Johnson" in Jacksonville, Alabama, postmarked Anniston, Alabama on May 22nd. This means it's someone who knows me well enough to anticipate my birthday and know my home address. Go »

Ten Things I Learned While Kelly's Parents Pat & Russ Spent a Week Visiting Us

• Florida reminds me of Dave Barry's quip that vacationing in Britain is great because you meet people from entirely different states. We stopped a woman to take our picture; she was visiting from New Jersey and her daughter beside her was from California. The only local we met warned us what bridge not to jump off for swimming because the water is shark-infested. Go »
