At the comedy club tonight I heard two comics do jokes about the 'Pina Colada' song. When the proofreader did the joke I went to the Fargo native and said 'He's doing your joke'. I hadn't heard anyone tell it in a while. Well she did it again as show closer.
At work the boss had a quick meeting and didn't recall why the lollipop girl was absent, but the boss is likely really busy and has a hard time recalling everything. She did try to be funny by saying 'How dare she' about being at a friend's wedding in the East. I think she will be back later this week, as there is a potluck she helped organize happening on Thursday.
I went back to the grocery store tonight as there weren't any bananas last night, which was odd. Well they had them tonight! I got a bottle of Snapple and a box of Little Debbie brownies as well. One of the clerks is entertaining as usual, saying he was reading a paperback book from the bookshelf inside the store which serves as an unofficial 'Neighborhood branch library'. It was about how to prevent corporations from stifling people, I said good luck on that. It appeared to be something from a while back, like the 1970s. I know this was when many industries became dominated by corporations. This was in the movie 'Forrest Gump', as Forrest had no problem as a shrimp boat captain after a hurricane wiped out his competition and then he went corporate. Then there's 'That 70's Show', when Red Forman started working for Price-Mart after being laid off from the factory. It meant becoming a competitor to his friend, who owned a mom-and-pop shop.
