1. You know, I think Tori Amos' song "Happy Workers" (or is "The Happy Worker"?) could totally have been an XTC song. There's just something XTC-ish about it. Sort of akin to "Across This Antheap" and "Day In Day Out," maybe.
2. I had a dream last night that I was driving down the turnpike while sitting in the passenger seat. Not something I would recommend, even in a dream.
3. I got a free sample of the Schick Quattro. It really DOES seem to provide a closer shave than my triple blade razor. I have to wonder how many blades they'll be able to put on a razor, though. Is there some kind of upper limit?
4. I also got the label to send back that phone I don't need. Of course, I got it AFTER the post office closed, and I won't be able to get to an open post office until Tuesday at the earliest. No big deal, though. I should probably mail out Button-Bright of Oz while I'm there.
5. I was all set to go out to Best Buy and use a coupon to buy a Game Boy Advance, but then I noticed that the coupon wasn't good for video game hardware. I remember that, back when I worked at the toy store, I couldn't use my employee discount on video game systems either. Something about the stores selling them at cost, or something like that. So I guess it makes sense, but I'm still annoyed. I probably will buy one in the near future anyway, but no point making a special trip when I'm not even going to save any money.
6. Now HERE'S a quiz result I can live with:

You rule. in 15 years, you won't be as known as you
are now, but most of the people that will know
you then will like you (or else I'll beat them
with a stick). You're nice to listen to.
What band from the 80s are you?

Expect another entry from me in the near future, regarding politics in general (not Bush/Kerry-specific stuff). I just wanted to get these unrelated things out there.
