Smoke Winston Instead

You need proof that the world is a dirty, rotten, filthy, stinking, godforsaken, rat-infested place with worms and maggots crawling all over it?  Look no further than this display of Food Club Mayonnaise, encountered while I innocently browsed the aisles of the local Kroger.  This furtive shot taken with my camera phone reveals what mayonnaise is retailing at these days.


Why this sort of thing is tolerated in public spaces, I have no idea.  At $2.69, a 32 ounce jar of Food Club Mayo is no bargain.  Considering the health care costs of long term mayonnaise abuse, you're much better off buying a pack of Winstons at twice the price.

I would read your blog more and give it some respect if you removed Larry Bird from the all-time starting five. You need five people that play defense. He would definitely be in an all-time lineup for taking the last shot or all-time players that completely lacked athleticism, but that it is honestly the first thing I think of whenever I see, think, or hear about your blog. Thank you for your time.

Mr. Wright,

I've watched a lot of basketball in my life, and 3 NBA championships and 3 MVP awards hardly indicate a complete lack of athleticism. In fact, you would be hard pressed to find a better athlete in the history of the NBA. It's not all about jumping. I hate the Celtics and I hate Larry Bird, but he is arguably the greatest player ever to pick up a basketball. And please don't make the mistake of thinking he was a poor defender. He knew how to play, period.

What I find interesting is that you'd have me remove Bird and not Thurmond, who was purely a personal choice. Weird.

I'd be happy to have you as reader, but Bird stays.
