Three Beautiful Things 08/25/08: Hearing Back, Wrinkles Gone, Slots Here (kellogg bloggin')

Tue, 26 Aug 2008 23:34:00 GMT

1. I was checking out at Albertson's several weeks ago and the youngster helping actually answered my question when I said, "How yooo doin'?" She told me about a double ear infection she contracted diving in a swimming hole up Fall Creek. I hadn't see her since and I was in her line this evening and asked her how her ears were doing and she's completely recovered. The turnaround occurred when...

The Evacuation Has Begun (Where's My Jetpack?)

noreply@blogger.com (Jetpacks) — Sat, 16 Aug 2008 20:43:00 GMT

In typical Albertson's rip-off fashion, they advertised an "everything...

Despite the fact that Publix is buying half of what remain of Albertson's Florida stores, Albertson's persists with desperate flyers (or is that "fliers?") like this, where "Angela" poses happily with a bouquet of (funeral') flowers and the copywriter has done everything except underline the word "still." On a recent trip to a soon-to-be-closed Albertson's store, I encountered...
