Heresy Bars...

So I stopped into the convenience store on a lunch break the other day and found a deal I couldn't refuse-


I must admit to being slightly disappointed, however. I bought and consumed two "Heresy Bars" and didn't feel any more inclined to espouse religious beliefs or opinions that varied strongly from accepted doctrine than before. Perhaps I grabbed the wrong bars. I had a Skor bar and a dark chocolate Snickers, which is about as heretical as candy bars get. Maybe if I'd gotten the 'Special Dark' solid chocolate bar instead.

I also recently came across a great deal on a 'Campaign Finish' bookshelf at Lowe's...


I thought it was particularly fitting that Lowe's would offer a special furniture finish during an election year. Imagine being able to tell your kids in 30 years that the 'heirloom' folding bookshelf you're handing down to them is the 'Special 2008 election year campaign finish'! I can just see Antiques Roadshow doing a special feature on that some time in the distant future.
Good thing I bought a garage full of them!
