Record Shop owners and their impact on teachers in Iceland

There is a certain way that you need to act while in a record shop with mostly unknown music at your disposal.  Always pick up a record every few minutes with a coolness, but don't show too much excitement.  Filter through everything like you know every single band that you are looking at.  Calmly wander over to the record store owner and ask if they can order in a record that is probably out of press. When purchasing, have a look that these records will do I guess, but it wasn't the exact edition that I was looking for.   This is how you gain points with your local record store owner.

Johnny Manziel and somebody named Rusty Smith are the only QB's in NFL history that were shutout in their first career NFL start.  Sharing a stat with somebody named Rusty Smith doesn't sound like a great start to your career.  Just envisioning the fry boy from the Simpsons constantly.

The Simpsons turns 25 this year.  Smithers was originally an African American man.  Krusty was supposed to be Homer in disguise, and The Simpsons movie was supposed to be a musical are a few of the interesting tidbits that I found out.  See the Chive isn't just for boobs and butts.  Can't even write that with a straight face. 

Still Alice - 8.8/10
The Skeleton Twins - 9.1/10
Gone Girl - 8.7/10

Three fantastic movies.  Julianne Moore has to be the favourite for best actress for Still Alice.  She's a brilliant professor that develops early Alzheimer disease.  She does her best to keep things together, but it's only a matter of time.  It's a tough watch.  Many heart wrenching moments.

Heard a story yesterday of a co-worker that has a friend that works for another FS.  Apparently she was asked if FS had a different website for each location.  Sorry you receive a timeout for this.

Things are going full circle.  Some of the most popular gifts this year are mini Polaroid cameras and record players.  It's very strange giving people of all ages knowledge about record players.  One thing about people buying record players.  Not one of them listens to shitty music.  You just don't hear.  "Oh, and can you tell me where to pick up the new Nicki Minaj record?  Just really want to hear Anaconda on vinyl."

One of the talents that I have obtained is picking out teachers when I am selling to them.  They are the most annoying customers that ask every question known to man about a $40.00 mouse.

I have an Iphone 4.  It has the worst digital camera ever developed in it.  You might as well draw a picture with the paint from a cardboard box of Gato Negro wine. 

Sara and I have booked a trip to Iceland in April.  We have wanted to go there for years.  Nearly every travel website that I check out always have beautiful pictures from Iceland.  That and ways I can purchase it through them for an outrageous price.

It's getting closer and closer to the end of the Fantasy Football season.  Or as gamers call it World of Warcraft for jocks.

Be good to people in this hectic time of year.  Whether it's helping somebody in need or just being patient with people that are trying to help you out the best they can.  It's simple just be good to fellow humans.
