people get paid to sit around all day and wait for a van to drive by that may or may not have an insane, didn't-do-it, ramsey confessor inside. of course, the van's windows are tinted, so no one knows who's inside- could be empty.

people get paid considerably less to harvest delicious vegetables that can be consumed and provide energy to a person. consuming television shots of a van provides nothing.

grump.


today i visited one of the last remaining original-use buildings of downtown denver- the rocky mountain seed company. it will soon be razed to be replaced by some highrise monstrosity (with a view of the mountains) and downtowners will no longer walk past the daily reminder that food has a source in nature, not in mcdonalds. the walls inside were lined with nice wooden cabinets and oversized card catalog-style drawers to hold seeds, which i liked. they're taking the old school cabinets with them to their new location in suburbia, though. apparently it's the most oft-asked question about their coming move- "what's gonna happen to the cabinets?" ...reminds me that i'd always planned on stealing an abadoned card catalog cabinet from the UIUC library. there were several in the ghostly hall that led to the history library- must go back.... ok, to any chambana people that might be reading this, consider this an official "suggestion" (read: imperative) for your next late night quad outting. mentos explosion was a good one, but theft is better! also, inspired by the recent success with getting a gift i'd jokingly asked for, i would like everyone to know that i've always wanted a wall-mounted pencil sharpener, like the kind in elementary school. nice sharp pencils.

now, go forth and acquire scholastic relics for me!
