I just got back from a last minute run to the supermarket to pick up candy for tomorrow and I have a few observations to drop, as well as a couple more videos.
-Did you have any idea that Halloween candy becomes scarce by Oct. 30? I figured that there would still be plenty of options but that was not the case. Fortunately I was able to get some Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, Snickers, Three Musketeers, and the latest creation featuring Reese's Peanut Butter, don't really recall what it's called and I don't care enough to go look at the bag.
-There was a sign at the entrance of King's stating that they apologized for the inconvenience, but they would not be selling eggs, shaving cream, or toilet paper to anyone under the age of 21. Obviously this is because tonight is Cabbage Night (at least that's what it's called around here, I know it is sometimes referred to as Mischief Night or something else in other areas). Earlier today I was thinking about how my parents never let me go out on Cabbage Night when I was a kid. This always frustrated in me but, in retrospect I appreciate it and realize they were completely in the right. Why would they even consider letting their kids go out, be brats, and potentially get in trouble with the police. If I ever have kids I will most certainly do the same. Just another depressing sign that there is nothing I can do to avoid becoming my parents...
-The Stop & Shop had Phillies signs for sale at the supermarket. I understand they won the World Series but this North Fucking Jersey, not Phillies country at all. If the Eagles ever (God forbid) win a Super Bowl and there is Eagle gear being sold in the area I will register a complaint with corporate.
The first video is a seasonal one, a video for The Clash's City of the Dead featuring Casper the Friendly Ghost. A little bit morbid but the song is catchy so it's all good.
Second, we have a video that I have been pimping out quite a bit lately. It's from some AOL Sessions thing that Weezer did a few months ago and quite frankly, it's probably the best thing Weezer has done in about ten years or so. After much deliberation I've become pretty sure that this is likely the best song they've done since Pinkerton. I should also add that it's also a B-Side for the latest album and that version is solid as well. If they ever get tired of making albums that will never equal their finest works, perhaps Rivers & Co. should look into performance art.

That is INSANE that they didn't sell that stuff at Kings
