I doooooooo~
On Saturday, Matt, Annabelle, Julie, Richard, and I made the Simpsons fan pilgrimage to the Kwik-E-Mart in Burbank. There was a line that wrapped around the store, but it was worth the wait. I’m impressed by the effort taken to decorate the 7-11. They even had ‘El Barto’ graffiti on the wall.
I just got a 3-pack of Buzz Cola while Matt went all out and purchased the Pink Donuts, Buzz, and Radioactive Man comic.
I highly recommend seeing the movie if you get the chance! I caught the midnight showing on Thursday and was thoroughly satisfied - it was much better than I expected.
Take a peek at my Flickr feed for more pictures.
I don’t recall how the topic of Jack Chick’s tracts got brought up, but when Matt (of Unfeddered Access fame) showed me the comic, Dark Dungeons, I instantly thought of the Magnum P.I. Yes, the Upstanding Christian gentleman that rallies against the heathen depravity of Dungeons and Dragons in the comic bears a striking similarity to Tom Selleck.
Separated at birth? Chick’s muse? You be the judge.
(Original Comic and Original Selleck for reference.)
During lunch last week, Matt, Caleb, and I created our Simpsons avatars. Results? I look like a taller version of Milhouse, Matt is a gay cowboy for some reason, and Caleb has come back from the dead - or is just really, really into death metal.
In related news, 7-11 is changing some of their stores to look like Kwik-E-Marts. And they’re serving pink donuts and squishees too! How awesome is that?!
Update: More photos of the Kwik-E-Mart

I’ve been working on my new blog template for about a week now and just uploaded it. Of course, it’s buggy as hell. I’m quite tired right now, but I had the burning urge to overwrite the default “I just setup Wordpress - whoop-dee-doo” message. More later when I get some REM cycles in.
I’m surprised that I stayed up this long to work on the site especially since I only got 4 hours of sleep last night. kthxbye.
