This morning, when I was leaving my house, I discovered a strange black duffel bag in the middle of the street. I should have taken a picture just to show you guys how suspicious it looked. Well anyways, if it was still there when I got home at noon, I would have called the FBI, The Department of Homeland Security, or at least the local police. I wouldn’t have minded seeing their bomb robot.
Spidey Sense
I just relized that Burger King might not have to give away their grand prize, $1,000,000.00 for their Spiderman 2 promotion game.
When you get a game piece, there are two scrach-off spots. You can only scratch ONE off. Not only do you have to get the “winning” game piece (Odds: 1:279,037,298), you also have to identify which spot to scratch off. If both spots are scratched off, the game piece becomes void. So if you happen to get the one “winning” game piece and scratch off the other spot, you lose. You’ll probably scratch off the other spot to see what you would have won only to find out that it was the grand prize. This way, since you already lost by voiding the game piece, they won’t have to give out the grand prize.
They don’t even have a second-try drawing in case they didn’t give away the grand prize, or any of the prizes!

Cockeyed’s Prank
As many of you know, I read Cockeyed.com all the time. Recently, Rob had made a few imitation Starbucks chairs and placed them in San Francisco. Well, today, I actually had the time to go to San Francisco and sat in the chairs.
You can see the pictures of the excursion here.

Feeder + Ants
Well, today I go and check the feeder to find ants crawling all over it. I decided to clean it out, and put some new “nectar” into it. Then I put the feeder on the hanging chain for a few days while the ants dissappate. I also took the time to create a “6-month pest defence” around and on the pole with some bug spray I had, by the gallon.

Propel
I used my “ONE Free Bottle of Propel Fitness Water” coupon today and bought a 700mL bottle of natural Grape flavour with other natural flavours.
It is a “Vitamin Enhanced Water Beverage from the makers of Gatorade”.
I like it. The water tastes like grape cough syrup, without the nasty side-effects of real medicine. I imagine the orange and cherry flavours taste like their respective medicines.

Finally
I finally got a Hummingbird to drink from the feeder. Yay! I had to move it again to a shady spot near some other red flowering plant.

Dream
I had a strange dream last night.
First I was in some foreign country, like Italy or something and it was a small quiet town. But when night came, people were jumping in the pools and fountains to swim or something. Then I went to this house I was staying in and they were having some sort of party and I went to the bathroom to change, for no reason. Then day came and I tried putting a coin into the fountain top, like a piggy bank but couldn’t becuase it was too far to reach. I remember something about Ouzo and how it smells like licorice.
I had another very vivid dream, but I cannot remember it…
