Notes From a Day

Saw protesters again today, this time maybe a dozen people holding posters saying either "Abortion Hurts Women" or "Abortion Kills Children". Standing by the side of the road, teenagers up to an older guy. Looked like a church group, or maybe a family.

Though with this, and the other guy I saw a couple weeks ago, it makes me wonder. What exactly does standing by the road with a sign do? It doesn't seem like it'd sway many people, but I'm not a good source to extrapolate anything from. Maybe it's like advertising, just repeat it over and over to get people used to hearing it?

In a mythic sense, New York IS America. Which is why supervillians, aliens, and natural disasters always target it.

I was wondering if the FBI still does "Public Enemy #1" things, but it turns out to have been subsumed by the "Ten Most Wanted Fugitives." And the term "Public enemy" isn't used any more, and wasn't ever really official. Now you know, thanks to Google and The FBI's FAQ.

I hate when people ask me what I think of the music we have on in-store play. There's very few CDs I can stand to listen to day after day after day without any variety, and they're not ones we've played. And since I'm a bad salesperson, I tell them the truth, that I can't really judge, since it's been playing constantly. Makes life simpler.

Tomorrow, for work, I'm going dressed as a low-budget ninja.
