I thought I had written before about seeing a local car dealer all over town - but I can't find it. At any rate, there is a local car dealer who is one of those guys who does his own commercials and generally makes an ass of himself in the process of selling cars. The best commercials are the ones in which he does bits with Jimmy "J.J." "Kid Dynomite" Walker - oh how far he fell.
So the deal is, I see this dude all over town and usually places I love to go - coffee shops, book stores, record stores... you know, *my* places. It disturbs me. I don't want to like the same things as the guy who shrugs his shoulders after J.J. does something asinine. He is a fine car dealer but his commercials make one want to end capitalism in a major way.
So today I had a new experience. I went to the bookstore to look for something to read on an upcoming flight and found myself shopping beside the former Senator and Vice Presidential nominee, John Edwards. As some might recall, despite being a dyed-in-the-wool Democrat, I do NOT like John Edwards.
Needless to say. I quietly sighed, went to a different section and got something completely different than intended.
