Possibly, but frankly none of those folks stick in my memory, beyond the scary, hard-of-hearing retiree greeters. ("HI, THERE, SONNY -- WELCOME TO WALMART!") I'm hoping that this isn't what PB is going for.

I've been in a Walmart once, in 1993 somewhere in Georgia when we were driving and it started raining so hard we could no longer drive (felt like we were boating). So we pulled over to a Walmart and ran in. This toothless bent-over old goat with a really thick accent yelled "HEY Y'ALL WELCOME TO WALMART!!" at us and practically jumped on top of us. I had never been to the south before and never encountered a "greeter" before, so it was pretty scary.

I think they are made (or originally made) by a Swedish company. Now they may be made here - I have not had them in a while. What does your bag say?

Suddenly, reading about wedding cake and scrolling past song lyrics sounds interesting.

I enjoyed K Street. It reminded me of the War Room, but this is of course blending fact and fiction. The production is interesting since they write and shoot it every week. I wonder if they will be able to make in engaging over thirteen weeks or however long the series is.

As for Carnivale, blech. I don't understand how a show with so many dramatic elements could be so dull. Exciting things happened in the most boring ways.

Variety reported last week that the House (or somebody) passed a resolution (or something) banning K Street (specifically mentioned by name) from filing in the Capitol.

Too lazy to look up specific details and facts. This is the extent of my recollection and it'll have to do.

What the heck was Screech doing on Actor's Studio in the first place?

I hope he was asked about his fine turn on "Star Dates"

there's apparently a long-standing law/policy against filming in the capitol. Members were reminded of this ban after K street did its first week of filming. K St. may have been mentioned only as a "in light of recent events it becomes necessary to remind everyone that . . . " way

My latest porn spam: re: line: "HELP SAVE HOMELESS..." then text, "SLUTS!"

This is a far more appealing nonprofit marketing pitch than some lame "Save the Trees" campaign. Anyone willing to help these homeless sluts?

I found what looked like a promising article to return the FB to more appropriate topics (sex and fashion).

Unfortunately, "China 'Open-Crotch Pants' Face Extinction" is an article about crotchless diapers for kids so they can run free.

You force me to relate my first-day-living-in-Texas Walmart story. Wench.

Anyway, I was on the obligatory shower curtain, cleaning supply, etc run that accompanies all moves and was standing in line in a Dallas-area Walmart behind a drunk, tooth-impaired woman (it was noon-ish on a weekday). She was annoying the person in front of her and got bored with that I guess, so she turned around and started talking to me. She decided that she had forgotten an important item (coffee maker, I believe), so she got right up in my fac and said: "Could you hold ma place in line? I'll be right back I promise. You can tell me to go to hell if youwampto."

I held her place in line. Didn't tell her to go to hell. Have not returned to Walmart since. Thank god for Target!

I don't get it. Isn't the point of diapers to 'catch' all the stuff that the young 'uns are too young to leave in the toilet (or behind the tree) by themselves. Why spend money on them, why not let junior/ette run around with nothing at all on the bottom?

I bet some sicko is getting off on the photo of the toddler in chaps.

And poo. Don't forget the poo.

Mostly I do it to crank down my Purity Test score, and pooing on sidewalks gets you there without the unpleasant euphoria and well-being from drug use and eyeball licking.

My understanding is that in China, young'uns are toilet trained early by allowing them unfettered access to bodily functions at all times. It doesn't make sense to me either, but its how they do it.
