HOSE DOWN MY PANTS!! BLRK

The Los Angeles County Health Department rates eating establishments on a letter grade system. Most of them get A's, there are occasional B's. Today, driving to work, I passed the FILIPINAS EXCHANGE MARKET which had received a C. I'm not sure I'd ever seen a C before. Even accounting for the fact that many Filipino specialty foods seem designed to terrify anglo health inspectors (balut, diniguan, etc) this appears extreme. What the hell do you have to do in order to get a C? Store your potato salad at 75 degrees Fahrenheit? Overhead salmonella sprayers? Ceviche de vacas locas? It's terrifying.

Today's Vehicle Spotting was an old beat up sentra driven by an aging gangsta, bumpersticker: NE1469? I don't think so, P-Dogg.

How's everyone enjoying the depression er recession er SLOWER RECOVERY THAN ANTICIPATED??

Slower than expected recovery helmet is securely fastened.

While I say this with superstitious trepidation, the current dive of the DOW et al into the crapper has left me pleasently surprised. Two job offers, even with my Starbucks-qualifying degree. I'm now going to rap my knuckles on wood repeatedly to insure that I still have new job on Monday.

I hope your new job is fun or at least a source of humor. If the economy completely crashes, however, we should start our own religion or something more secure than the bond market.
