If only there was enough time to take a picture. At all the DART stations there are these blue column call stations that you can use to get assistance at the station. All of them read "ASSISTANCE" vertically on the station. Apparently, someone blocked out the "I" at one station. "ASS STANCE" is all that is legible now. It made me laugh.
I am trying to sell my 1993 MIM Fender Stratocaster. If you know anyone interested, tell them to email me. I am wanting to get an Epiphone SG G-400. Guitar Center says they only give about $200 on very clean ones. I paid $485 for mine with the case. I think I can get around $350 selling it myself.

Yesterday when I got on the DART rail, there was an obese black man in a suit mumbling a little. As soon as the rail started moving, he started preaching. Every time he said "savior" or "power", or something like that, his voice would change and sound like he was fixing to sing. His voice would change quickly back after saying one of those words.
He started getting louder and louder. So, what does a person like myself do in this situation? I switched what I was listening to on my iPod to Slayer's "Reign in Blood" and cranked it up. Good times, good times!

I started taking the DART rail for part of my commute to work. It is cutting out 15 miles of a 40 mile trip. It should save me roughly $80 a month in gas, and about 7,800 miles on my car a year. My office pays for my monthly pass, which is the main reason I even considered it. The pass is $50, but I may have done it anyway, especially with the gas prices the way they are.
It is actually nice not having to drive through Dallas traffic, cause it pretty much sucks shit. I just put on my headphones and watch people. The lady sitting in front of me the other day was picking her nose and wiping it on the seat. I really wanted to slap her in the back of the head while she was digging. That would have been a great "family guy" type moment. I would have cherished it.

Last weekend we had Evan and Kuper's Birthday Carnival! It went well, other than the AC leaking condensation onto the floor (not major). They both had plenty of fun and presents.
The next day, we drove up to Oklahoma (oh yeah) to have a mini vacation. We stayed the night at a Comfort Inn. Kuper didn't want to stay at first, and the next day he wanted to stay longer. But alas, we had to leave and head over to Arbuckle Wilderness.
Arbuckle was fun, especially when a camel sticks his head into the car trying to get food from someone. Most of the animals that you can feed are funny just watching them come and trying to be the first to get some food pellets.
