I Did It All for the Snooki

I have no tv/media/comm. arts background, but I feel it's only a matter of time before MTV hits us with this reality show ala Flavor of Love/Rock of Love/I Love New York in which Snooki is on the quest for a tan gorilla, juice-head, guido. Just sayin'!

Happy Birthday John Lennon

Happy Birthday John!

Customer: I'd like to speak to the manager please.
Me: Sure, is there a problem?
Customer: Yes. I bought this marble loaf yesterday and it's not marble loaf. It's revolting and I almost choked to death.

Customer: I'd like a cinnamon raisin bread please, but I want one with lots of cinnamon in it.
Me: Well ma'am I have no way to tell how much is inside the bread.
Customer: Well sometimes the bread doesn't have a lot of cinnamon in it and I'm bringing this to a friends.
Me: Ok well I have no way to tell which one has the most cinnamon.
Customer: Well let me see the bread. What about the one next to it? Show me the bottom of it.
Me: Would you like it sliced?
Customer: Yes please and there better be a lot of cinnamon in it.
Me: Once again ma'am, there is no way for me to tell what is inside the bread.

The Sugarcubes - "Birthday"

For myself. The best female vocals I have ever heard.

The Impossible Project

The Impossible Project opened their first U.S. location in a 5th floor studio space in the SoHo section of New York City. Recently I was able to drop by and explore all of the awesome projects they are working on including the creation of new Polaroid cameras and film. I highly recommend any film lover to stop in and check out their awesome work. You can learn more at their website.

Co-Worker: Marc, I just got off the phone with one of the charities. The synagogue is no longer taking the white bread at night because the homeless people are on a whole wheat diet.

Customer: Can I ask you for a favor?
Me: Sure
Customer: I have a bottle of fish oil that I opened, but I can't go home to refrigerate it, can you keep it here and I can pick it up tomorrow?
Me: Um... are you really going to come get it tomorrow?
Customer: Yes, I can be here when you open. I'm also going to get a lemonade.
Me: Well we can't really hold people's things here.
Customer: Oh are you sure?
Me: Yes, sorry.
Customer: Oh... well I don't really want the lemonade then.

Beat L.A.

This video seems to promote Kobe more so than the N.B.A., but fuck that shit. Andre 3000 covering the Beatles is still pretty legit. I'd be lying if I said I was a basketball fan, but I do have Mass pride so in true spirit, let's BEAT L.A.!!!

Co-worker: Would you like the receipt, sir?
Customer: What am I going to do with that, stick it up my ass?
