Jinx, I Don't Think We're in Kansas Anymore...
Thank goodness...I made it back to LaLa Land...
Being in MO and KS has raised a few questions:
1)Why does everyone there drink Dr. Pepper? I even saw some broad wearing a Dr. Pepper shirt...And not on purpose, like the retro ones you get at Hot Topic at the mall...
Last time I checked, the commercial about "I'm a pepper, you're a pepper, wouldn't you like to be a pepper, too" has not been aired on TV since 1986...
2)Is it really that necessary to have two Super Wal-Marts in Wichita?
3)Stuff is cheap in Kansas. I thought about going on a major clothes shopping spree to save a buttload of money. Then said, "Why bother? Kansas has no style," and later on, someone would compliment my on my sweater, and damn if I'd say, "Oh, this? I got this in the Kansas Fashion District!"
4)People in Wichita complain about their traffic. Whatever. Go ride a plow.
5)All the cows must be stored somewhere in the winter. I was looking forward to pulling off the freeway for some good-natured cow tipping. Bastards.
6)Why do people in Wichita wear flip flops in winter?

I have missed you and your witchita bashing ways. Try shopping in north haven next time you want to go on a spree. We have a Fashion Bug!

Yay - you're back...I slowly crept up on your blog...closed my eyes....peeked a little....and yes!!! Eureka!!! You are here! :)
Wow, Wichita sounds like another world.
You can always cow-tip in Bedrock! :p
Oh and babyjewels, I got ya beat...Bedrock has a "Cato's"...remember that one?
LOL Cow tipping u can come to Wis"cow"son if you want to tip cows.
LOL!!! I have never been to Kansas (don't plan on going either) but one of my coworkers went and informed me (being a yankee I already knew this) "They don't have sweet tea, or grits or po-boys..." "They's sumpin wrong wit dem!" LOL!!!
I've always held a certain distaste for the Midwest, but I think it was just my own ignorance. All the Midweterners I've met lately are fucking FABU, except for Brad the Clown, but he'd be a douche no matter where he lived. Maybe I just attract fabu people.
you need to get out more Seahag.
The city I live in has THREE Super Wal....oh wait. I take that back. two super Wal-Marts AND one regular Wal-Mart. (it was built before the whole "Super" phase began)
now who's jealous??
So glad your back...... I think its experiment time --- you should bring back the Pepsi Challenge--
I know Dr. Pepper vs Mr.Pibb
Welcome Back !!!
Did you see David Naughton at the local Supermarket autographing cans of Dr Pepper???
Wouldn't you like to be a pepper tooooooooooo.......
shannon-bet philly has some weird things too...wish i could go there to tell you what!
baby jewels- fashion bug...that kicks ass...i like dress barn, too...wait a sec, how come i didnt see one of those in KS? note to self: never wear clothes that come from any place named after housing for livestock...which reminds me, there was a store in denver for plus sizes called "Ample Duds"
what the hell?
Tina- please tell me what a Cato's is...i'm dying to know!
Cupcake-i looked for some suede boots for you...but no go...
Bozette- count me in...i have a dream of tipping one of those fools over...
Mae-glad u can verify the Dr. Pepper thing...i thought it was just me...then on the plane, three people in a row asked for Dr. Pepper...and i started to wonder...
big mama- I will never understand Sweet tea...i saw some at super walmart in KS...its fricking nestea with sugar...but they all beg to differ...
Spinning-somehow i feel cheated not knowing Brad the Clown. Then again, i once boinked a guy named Brad...and that he was, a clown...an ASS clown!
Design-that scares me...please, boss, don't send me to OH....please!
batty- thats a great challenge...wonder if they have a dr pepper flavored laxative...here's hoping!
Ew. I hate Dr. Pepper. Ack!
me too...im sticking to my diet coke...
Diet Dr. Pepper is my new friend! No sugar AND no taste! Like me!
Glad yer back!
[Confession: I wear flip flops in the winter].
I wear birkenstocks year round (clog style in winter) When I went to college in TX, they said the secret ingredient in Dr. P was prune juice!
Ooooh a Cato's is kinda like a Fashion Bug. I havent seen or been to one in years - but it turns out they have a site! lol
well not sure how that happened, but the link to catos is actually the time up there in that post....geesh
prune juice? that makes sense...
cato's? I am so there!
oh we have a Cato's in the neighboring city...Shoebilee was next door, but that went out of busniess. Guess no one was that excited about shoes. Or maybe no one in that city wears shoes...
Design- Shoebilee is a great name....they need to reopen it...
I have what is called the $9.99 shoe outlet in my neighborhood...you can get real leather shoes made in sweatshops, for you guessed it, $9.99!
maybe i do want to go to OH...
Glad you're back, LB! I think I may have gone to Kansas once, but I don't remember. Or maybe I was successful in trying to forget. I don't think I could ever live anywhere but the Northeast, or maybe California.
michael-yup...selective amnesia! id like to forget kansas, too...and utah...and nebraska...
My sister is such big a Dr. Pepper fan that she signed the jingle for her final in American sign language class. She was a year old in 1986, so I guess the last airing of that commercial somehow burrowed its way into her subconscious.
