“I Dun Tol’ You Once…”
I am haunted by the Charlie Daniels Band. Each afternoon this week, without fail, I have heard The Devil Went Down to Georgia. [I found and downloaded three different versions from Bearshare this morning, but Yahoo!/Geocities won't let me put them up: by CDB, by Primus, by Sublime. It's all about variety, yo.] I know this isn’t the golden age of radio or anything, and I also know that Birmingham’s radio stations aren’t the greatest in the world, but come on - three days in a row is a bit much. And I don’t even think it was the same radio station.
Is someone trying to tell me something? Do I need to start playing fiddle? Is my soul in danger?
Anyone out there thinking of buying furniture from Rich’s? Talk to me first. Its probably not as bad a story as some consumer horror stories I’ve heard, but then again, its not exactly over yet. So far, we have waited three months for an order that should have taken three weeks; we found out that they no longer make the sofa set we purchased, as in, we called to check on the progress after two weeks and they said “oh, yeah, about that - we were gonna call you cause we don’t make that anymore…” “but we just bought one” “yeah, right, we don’t make that, you need to pick something else out;” when the sofa was finally delivered [along with the ottoman, but not the chair, cause "that's not quite ready yet"], the not only beat it to hell on the way in the door, but they also broke the glass in our front door.
AND they’re giving us attitude. All I can say is Serenity Now.
In addition, I seem to have done something to my laptop… the colors are all screwed up, and I can’t figure out what settings have been changed.
If you’re in Birmingham this weekend, come check out the Sloss Birthday Blast, a fundraiser for Sloss Furnaces.
