Dodger Stadium has a ton of obstructed view seats. I sat in a seat where 1st base and all of right field were blocked.

It didn't help that the dodgers were blown out 7-1 or something.

Yeah, I thought of that but I remember they changed some stuff when lights got added and went premium. Or you snuck it in!

Yesterday, I got a incorrect California Income Tax bill in the mail with penalties included. Amount due in 10 days. I tried calling the tax line and get "We're too busy, call back later" and *click*. For online support, you need to sign up an account and wait 5-7 days for a pin code to be mailed to your home address.

I smell a rigging!

I've dealt with that in various ways. Lots of letters written.

the guy who interviews celebrities while eating hot sauce is kind of overrated as an interviewer.

I thought his interview with Paul Rudd was awesome. Also the one with the Undertaker.

Anyone have a pita bread they love? Not pita pocket. Kronos looks like the most available, but not sure where.

I got my Shingles Vax this afternoon. I am a bit concerned that the imbedded tracking chip might be incompatible with my Bill Gates tracker. No noticeable side effects yet. Fingers crossed.

Damn Apple vs Microsoft issues potentially strike again!

I got my 1st of the two shots. Still feeling no effects. I was going to put it off but both my mother-in-law and grandma had shingles and those experiences convinced me.

Permanent nerve pain is something I want to try and avoid.
