Simply Charmed

Okay so not an odd title, but the story behind it is a bit funny. Here in Alabama there are a lot of hunters (like many other places I would imagine.) But the funny thing is, there is a car dealership that’s advertising an interesting mix.

Buy a truck; get a 12 gauge shotgun free!

Am I the only one that finds that a little odd? Some coworkers of mine were discussing this last night and the only thing we can come with for an excuse is, “Only in Alabama, and maybe Texas too!” So this leads me to wonder, what other odd combinations are people trying to sell together. Personally I would like a truck, and if I were to get one… well they can just keep the shotgun.

Question: Have you seen any weird advertisements in your area lately? What were they? Is it something that you, yourself would be interested in getting?

Well it’s November already, and for those of us in the Northern Hemisphere, things are getting colder. It’s getting closer to the end of the year. I know many of us are looking forward to Thanksgiving. I know I am. We all know it as the one time a year that we can stuff our face, and nobody says anything. I know my sister is just itching for deep fried Turkey (it’s kind of a southern thing.)

While I know many of you visitors don’t celebrate Thanksgiving, in the Internet world November signifies another important event. That’s right boys and girls NaNoWriMo is back. I want to wish everyone out there participating good luck, and stick with it.

I also want to take this opportunity to plug a wonderful friend Todd who is participating this year. Todd and I have been friends for about 6 or 7 years. He’s a wonderful man, and a very cherished friend. Please visit his site, and wish him luck as well. So again, good luck to him, and everyone else that is participating.

So who else out there is participating. If you aren’t what are your thoughts on those that are?
