Let me begin my stoopid story by telling you that my husband has a prosthetic leg. It's very realistic-looking, and so is the foot, but if he's wearing shorts and someone is very observant, they can tell it's a prosthesis. A girl I worked with (a Ph.D.!!) was looking at a picture someone took of us at the beach. My husband was wearing swim trunks and Teva sandals, so his leg and foot were visible. I saw the girl looking very puzzled, so I told her, "He has a prosthetic limb." She looked at it for a few seconds and asked, "But they were able to save his foot?"

Wonder how many people stopped in for the LSD?

LOL! Yes, and one wonders just what exactly an "In Door Pool" is. Is it a Neil Gaiman thing, a portal thing to swim in? A place from which to swim into another dimension from? Is it a place to swim after your free LSD kicks in?
If I were in the right mood and I drove past that place I would pull over and ask them WTF is up with your sign? By right mood I mean drunk. Just joshin', driving drunk is stupid.

Here's one more stupid thing before I head out for the day. I called Amazon to ask them if it's possible to get a Kindle fixed if it's broken. I told them that I have a NOOK and it's broken, they say it's too hard to fix so the only thing to do is buy a new one... sans any discount.
So the Kindle guy tells me the same thing as the B&N guy told me. With the exception of adding that the Kindle is a highly technical piece of equipment that is built by robots.... it's so delicate that any time you open it you risk destroying the device.... I say, ok, robots.
Then I asked him if he had ever heard of YouTube? Did he ever see the fella who sits at his kitchen table and takes a NOOK apart and shows people how to fix them?
I say further, after I promise him that I in no way mean to be giving him "personally" a hard time, that the YouTube repair guy doesn't look like a robot to me.... He said, I understand, but no, Amazon will not authorize repairs on Kindle....you have to get a new one when it breaks.
