white elephant movie

 this morning i watched  a DVD movie, a redbox rental, 'white elephant'. i recognized bruce willis and john malkovich in it. this was considered to be a thriller, a cop and gangster movie. bruce played the crime boss and john played his lawyer. the main part of the story was two cops being the witness to a mob hit, an then the gangsters tried to kill both of them but one of them was proving to be harder to kill than the other. liked seeing how one of the cops drove a ford mustang. she was paranoid but it proved that she had every right to be, not knowing who to trust. this was a free movie for me as i had enough points from previous redbox rentals. after it was done of course it was time to get the errand running done. there was seven places on my list. first one was going to the post office, where there was three items to pick up. one of them was my expired passport, so i filed it away next to the current one. then i went to the gas station and dumped the movie. i got some vitamin water and two hash browns, there was a buy one get one promotion and i like those a lot. then it was time to have lunch, so i went home and had some red baron pizza. then it was time to get the other five things done. went to the family dollar, but there wasn't much left for sale. and i didn't like the attitude from the employees, who were just standing around near the entrance. so i left rather quickly. then it was back into my car, where i got an advance state fair ticket at cub foods. then i went to cheapo and sold two DVDs i no longer wanted. it was taken off my bill, as i got another DVD, 'brother can you spare a dime'. my final stop on this drive was to the copy store, three items printed. it included my fringe reviews, and  meetup event i am doing later this month. then i went over to aldi for my weekly order, where i was annoyed by the rudeness of another patron. then i laid own for a little while. 

  when i woke up i knew it was time to get going again, to the st. paul saints baseball game. i arrived early, but not early enough to get the kevin millar bobble-head. not a big deal, already have plenty of bobbles. i later found a box in a recycle bin so i claimed it. this will still be a nice souvenir of the night, as the giveaway was in honor of retiring his uniform number 15. saints won, beat columbus 6-5. they led 3-0 at the end of the 1st, aided by a 2-run home run. but the visitors made it a game, at one point the saints trailed 5-3. saints tied it 5-5 with a 2-run shot in the 7th and went ahead in the 8th. i briefly spoke with mr. veeck, the saints boss, before the game. i got a hot dog because the food i got at speedway before i arrive at the stadium wasn't enough. the only sandwiches i found there were breakfast sandwiches, and those were small. after the game i went on a walk and found 34 cents.
