this is stand-up on steroids.
This woman speaks so fast on her feet she risks being ticketed.
“We have a long way to go till we get to that perfect libertarian state where we can have all the drugs people want without me having to pay for the people who can’t get jobs because of it.”
First I want to give them a shout out concerning Amazon Prime.
Not for the service itself per-se I only signed up for the trial because my son needed a particular book for a college class and it would not have been here in time without it (and it turned out to be $10 below the college bookstore) but because it of the way it handles what follows.
Most places have the “if you want to continue do nothing and we’ll bill you”, on the hopes that you will forget. To its credit Amazon allows you the chance to set up the trial where it automatically doesn’t renew.
That will cost them $79 of my money that they might have gotten if I had forgotten (HA!) but it will certainly earn kudos that will last and have been made public.
Secondly I got my Vine list yesterday in the middle of the conference, totally forgot about it and to my shock there were two books I wanted on it and managed to grab. With prime they will be waiting for me when I get back. Still haven’t finished the one I brought with me, too much to do.
But right now with money tight that vine program helps to keep me in a least a book or two a month. Makes a big difference.
$800 a week Tucker and all this could be yours.
…and I’ve packed 3 fedoras in a hatbox along with the one I’ll be wearing. My only problem is going to be carry on cannoli. Can I carry on Cannoli? what are the restrictions upon same? Will I be able to find the promised Cannoli in Washington if I don’t take it with me? I’ve spotted Vaccaro’s Italian Bakery online right near Reagan airport but they are getting $53 bucks for 6 Cannoli. That will be the day when I pay $9 for a Cannoli.
I certainly can’t carry Veal, (although maybe some sausage from Romano’s) I’m going to have to think about this.
Anyway the mailing list is pretty long for CPAC, this is going to be very interesting.
