Ben Stole My Blog...

Ben stole my blog. that punk. If you've talked to me in the store, then you know I have nothing to say worth hearing. Then I finally had something to say and Ben stole it. I was going to write about the shoplifter, with a first-hand tale of the drama that unfolded, but Ben beat me to it. Sure, he provided a pretty detailed account of the events, complete with pictures. And yes, he mentioned the awesome speed of the U City Police. but he neglected to mention the real moments of heroism. Like me chasing the thief down (8-10 feet) on his getaway bike or when Amanda said 'Go get em'

Not to sympathize with the thief, but when I was a dumb kid (around his age), I got caught shoplifting and I was let go with with a slap on the wrist. But the icy stare of a Jamaican-born Best Buy manager was enough to scare me out of ever doing it again. If this kid turns to a life of crime, I blame only myself, for not being cabable of anything beyond a mildly chilly stare.

So what am I gonna blog about then?...hmm, current events?...uh...Jessica Simpson snubbed a presidential invitation because she didn't want to support republicans, on behalf of the non-partisan organization she's involved with...Operation Smile, devoted to giving free plastic surgery to children (sure there's a little more to it than that, but lets leave it at that)

...no, that's not interesting. hmm, well check this out then.

yeah, that's interesting. sure.
