jeremy the jerk.

i learned a very valuable lesson today. if you have any idea that you may or may not be watching a television show involving up close and personal camera shots of someone getting a nose job, it's a good idea to hold off on eating lunch. i suspect that while i was watching this show, it looked like the youtube reaction videos of people watching "two girls one cup". if you have not watched these videos, please do so now. the parents/grandmas are the best.


of all the magical things that happened on our "posen or bust" roadtrip 2010 over the last few days, one of the best happened to be the kum and go gas stations. it wasn't, however the actual kum and go location that was of great excitement, but rather the conversation that ensued when we found out that they were having a "name our cup" contest. here are just a few of the entries that both my sister and i would like to submit.

kum sipper
kum drink
big kum gulp
big kum blast
medium, large, extra large
load buster

also, we thought if they needed a new advertisement..."with 35 locations in the des moines area, you can pretty much kum in one our locations, any time, day or night".

we also saw a gas station called "loaf n jugs" and we thought maybe kum and go could merge...

kum and jugs.


its funny how many random things come up on roadtrips. for instance, we were able to determine our price for being strapped onto the end of a windmill arm in nebraska and flung around for 10 rotations. my sister said $10,000. i came in a little lower at $500.


also, we were listening to christian radio and at one point, the guy said that if we support ENDA and allow businesses to be punished for discriminating against homosexuals, it will, of course, result in more gay marriages. yeah, i didn't follow that either! so, because we were stuck in a car with nothing else to do, i called the number they gave. i ended up on the line with guy named jeremy who after 15 minutes was unable to provide me with any type of research or facts to back up the statement. jeremy didn't seem to like my liberal point of view however he was nice enough to use his internet connection to attempt to find some pro-ENDA groups that i could contact. shockingly, after looking all over the world wide web, he could find none.

hey jeremy, i typed in pro-ENDA into yahoo! and found like two. i get a feeling jesus wouldn't like your dishonesty!

i do think jesus would enjoy the kum and jugs gas station though. he was a man after all.
