Second, this weekend we are at our good friends’, The Abshers, and they are awesome. Mr. Absher has personally reponsible for doubling my interest in classic rock and guitarist. He has powers.

Third, I picked up some sweet figure 2-packs at Target for $7.00 each, that’s $3.50 a figure–them’s is 1994 prices. I was most pleased with myself and the world.(for those interested, they were Star Wars figures. For those more interested, they were Order 66 packs.)

Second, I am currently reading a trade paperback of the original G.I. Joe comic from Marvel, and it is excellent, so much so that beginning next week and throughout at least the next month, I will be putting up quotes from it as the quotes of the week.

Third, I am an idiot. I was trying to thinking of the verb form of the noun “Mandate”; and for a moment, I fully and completely thought it was “Mandatize”. Luckily my brain stopped my mouth from uttering this, and I realized that “Mandate” is the verb form for the noun “Mandate”.

Fourth, I was kinda disappointed by The Office this week.
